The bonds are short-term floating rate debt securities linked to SOFR, with the issuance likely of modest size given the amount was not announced. Nonetheless, US digital bond issuances by large organizations remain rare, requiring baby steps.<\/p>\n<p>The bond was issued on the Canton Network founded by Digital Asset, which in turn was co-founded by DRW.
