Future Plans

The system has been designed to support future enhancements while maintaining the core mint-burn functionality described in this documentation.

Following are some ways to increase the functionality of CBTC:

• Node operator rewards: As a validator securing CBTC, you'll earn additional rewards from minting activity

• Customer minting: You can potentially mint CBTC on behalf of customers, earning Canton coin rewards to share with them

• Utility-based rewards: Canton is shifting toward rewarding apps that create actual trading and financial activity, which should benefit CBTC holders
