What is ACME?

ACME is a decentralized, overcollateralized lending platform built on the Canton Network that enables users and institutions to lend, borrow, and manage digital assets securely within a permissioned blockchain environment. Built on Canton's privacy-preserving and interoperable infrastructure, the protocol combines the efficiency of decentralized finance with the strict compliance and security standards required for regulated institutional participants.

By bridging traditional finance with on-chain functionality, the platform serves as an institutional-grade lending protocol that offers transparent yields, capital efficiency, and composable financial markets. This architecture allows asset managers, fintechs, and professional crypto users to generate passive income or borrow against their collateral securely without compromising on governance, data privacy, or regulatory control.
