Canopy mainnet is live.

Everything builders have been doing on testnet, launching apps without assembling infrastructure first, now happens for real. The apps are sovereign, the economics are real, and what you launch is yours.

What changes now

Testnet was practice. On mainnet an app you launch is a live product with real users and real economics, secured by the network from the moment it exists rather than bootstrapped on its own. Teams that have been building toward this move from coming soon to running.

The proposition has not changed since the day we started. Describe what you want, ship it, own it. AI writes the app. Canopy makes you the owner of what it runs on. Think Replit for Web3. Mainnet is the point where owning it starts to mean something.

What we shipped to get here

  • Deployment in minutes, with monitoring already wired in and no stack to assemble.
  • A wallet and block explorer on every node, so builders are not bolting on third party tooling to see their own app.
  • Security from block zero. A new app inherits the network's security instead of bootstrapping its own.
  • A faster, leaner indexer and official hosted snapshots, so standing up a node is a coffee break rather than a weekend.

We wrote those up as they landed, most recently in what shipped for node operators.

If you took part in the airdrop

The submission window is closed. It closed as announced, and no further submissions are being accepted. If you submitted your reward points before the cutoff, there is nothing more for you to do. Eligibility and allocations were determined from the submissions on record, and distribution goes to the Canopy wallet you named.

Start building

The node runner quickstart is the fastest way to stand up a node. If you have been waiting for mainnet to launch something, it is here.

Stay safe

Launch day is when impersonation peaks. Canopy will never DM you first, never ask for your recovery phrase or private key, and never ask you to send funds or approve token spending. Verify every link, wallet prompt and contract address through Canopy's official website and community channels.
