Claims, and where each one stands.

Every claim on this page carries its evidence tier. Nothing IRSForge states about itself is presented as something measured independently here.

Confirmed: verifiable in a primary source right now
Announced: stated by a party, not yet observable
Speculated: inference or third-party characterisation

Confirmed

IRSForge is institutional rates infrastructure for Canton. Interest-rate, credit, and cross-currency swaps settle on the same ledger as the trade, with dealer-shaped screens on Daml Finance and the regulator and CSA wired in from day one.

irsforge.com
Confirmed

IRSForge ships three swap families on one Canton-native platform: interest rate swaps (fixed-float, OIS, and basis on the Daml Finance V0 swap instrument, with an NY Fed SOFR fetcher in the box), single-name credit default swaps with ISDA-shaped premium and contingent legs, and fixed-float cross-currency swaps with notional exchange on the same Daml Finance lifecycle and CSA stack.

Confirmed

Sub-transaction privacy on IRSForge is Canton's. Counterparties do not see across each other's books. The regulator is an observer at contract creation. Trades land and leave as FpML.

irsforge.com privacy
Confirmed

Deploy is three steps: configure irsforge.yaml (currencies, parties, rate families, scheduler), wire OIDC for the identity provider, and point at a Canton participant. The reference implementation is AGPL v3.0 at github.com/sneg55/irsforge, with docs at docs.irsforge.com.

irsforge.com deploy
Confirmed

IRSForge is an on-chain interest rate swap platform for Canton Network and a reference open-source implementation Canton participants can adopt without forking. Five product families (IRS, OIS, Basis, XCCY, CDS) sit on the full Daml Finance stack, with a signed-CSB margin model, oracle-driven 24/7 lifecycle, and FpML round-tripping. The regulator is wired as an observer at contract creation.

docs.irsforge.com
Confirmed

github.com/sneg55/irsforge is the AGPL reference repository for Privacy-first on-chain Interest Rate Swaps on Canton Network, covering a Daml Finance implementation (IRS, OIS, BASIS, XCCY, CDS) with full ISDA lifecycle, CSA collateral, and regulator views.

github.com/sneg55/irsforge
Announced

IRSForge is privacy-first on-chain interest rate swaps on Canton Network, with a SWPM-shaped UI and a one-YAML deploy path where a Canton participant plugs in their own OIDC, oracle, and topology. That framing appears on a third-party directory and news surface, not as an IRSForge own-surface measurement.

// what would move the score

Catalysts.

Each one names what I am watching and what would prove me wrong.

IRSForge at irsforge.com remains institutional rates infrastructure for Canton, with Open

Falsified if: that homepage drops the Canton and Daml Finance rates-infrastructure wording without a dated IRSForge own-surface replacement, or the URL 404s.

IRSForge docs at docs.irsforge.com still present an on-chain interest rate swap Open

Falsified if: those docs drop the Canton Network and Daml Finance platform wording without a dated IRSForge own-surface replacement, or the URL 404s.

// what I could not verify

Gaps.

These are findings, not omissions. I looked and state what I found.

SOUGHT

Named leadership. Opened IRSForge homepage, docs, and GitHub surfaces name no individual founder, CEO, or executive.

SOUGHT

Named legal entity. No incorporation name, registered office, or licensing jurisdiction appears on the cited IRSForge homepage or docs.

SOUGHT

Named production counterparties. Copy frames Canton participants and buying-committee roles. No named bank, dealer, or fund is listed as a live user on the cited pages.

SOUGHT

Hosted mainnet deployment. Cited surfaces present a reference open-source deploy path (YAML plus OIDC), not a single public hosted mainnet venue with measured open interest or notional.

SOUGHT

Public audit or security report. No auditor firm name, audit-report URL, SOC 2 or ISO claim, or public bug-bounty scope appears on the cited IRSForge homepage or docs landing page.

SOUGHT

CCTools directory detail. The CCTools ecosystem URL for irsforge returned an unhydrated SPA shell only, so no Live or role labels from that directory are used here.

// open to the project

Sections IRSForge can fill.

These stay empty until the project supplies them. Anything supplied is labeled as supplied, dated, and never rendered as something I verified. Declining changes nothing else on this page.

Position.

Position disclosure. I hold $CC and $CNTN. This page covers a Canton-native product, which triggers disclosure under my map. IRSForge itself is not a holding of mine. The full conflicts register is on the disclosure page. IRSForge has no commercial relationship with Canton Catalyst, and nothing here was requested, reviewed or paid for.

// corrections

Correction log.

17 Sep 2026 First published. HARD STYLE LOCK: claim prose is fact-first; primary_url is the cite. CCTools ecosystem URL returned an unhydrated SPA shell only, so it is omitted from claims and links (fail-closed).
