Fairmint has launched Observer Nodes for Onchain Equity on the Canton Network. The initiative delivers transparency, accountability and regulatory visibility into equity moving onchain while preserving privacy. Observer Nodes provides the privacy protections companies and individuals require while maintaining the regulatory transparency that ensures market integrity. Observers will access read-only automated tools directly from their active nodes on the network, without permission to view personally identifiable information and can flag when potential violations occur. This approach preserves confidentiality for compliant activity while ensuring regulatory authorities can access material information to maintain fair and orderly markets during investigations. Allowing Observer Nodes transforms compliance from reactive enforcement to proactive monitoring. The technology implements protocol-level standardization with immutable audit trails and programmatic compliance enforcement, which are core elements of Fairmint’s seven-point regulatory modernization framework. This positions global capital markets to lead next-generation securities infrastructure while maintaining enhanced investor protections through real-time violation detection and automated regulatory reporting.
