What happened
The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC) switched on its tokenization service on October 28, 2026, for 20 firms, covering 34 securities with a market value of approximately $30 trillion. This service converts stocks, funds, and government bonds into blockchain tokens. DTCC is integrating its custody functions onto the Stellar network, with further assets expected to become available in 2027,.
Why it matters
This move signifies that the back office of the US stock market is adopting blockchain technology. The integration of DTCC's services onto Stellar validates the Real World Asset (RWA) sector and its expansion. The service allows for the digitization of major assets, including index ETFs and stocks in the Russell 1000.
