Abstract

Each Canton venue reports its own numbers in its own format, and nothing public compares what the same trade actually returns on each. Canton Venues (cantonvenues.com, live since 2 October 2026) does: it reads seven venues every five minutes and ranks them on the same trade at $100, $1K, $10K and $50K after pool fees, price impact and each venue's network fee, tracks Canton prices against outside markets, and publishes it all as a key-free JSON API, an MCP server and a page per venue. Cantex and Tradecraft have each published their own ranking from it, and Cantex endorsed this application on this PR. The grant makes the benchmark a maintained public asset: a venue schema so any venue can be ranked on the same method, the hourly execution history as an open dataset, an installable MCP package and twelve months of maintenance, with half of the request paid only per verified independent adopter.
