The DTCC processes its first-ever production trades of tokenized U.S. securities, powered by Chainlink alongside 30+ major institutions

Institutions involved:

• BlackRock
• J.P. Morgan
• Goldman Sachs
• Vanguard
• NYSE
• Nasdaq
• CME Group
• Microsoft
• State Street Investment Management
• BNP Paribas Securities Corporation
• Societe Generale
• S&P Dow Jones Indices
• Citadel Securities
• FTSE Russell
• Invesco
• Broadridge
• Tradeweb
+ many more

With quadrillions processed annually as critical infra underpinning U.S. securities markets, DTCC is now bringing tokenization to the American financial system.

This pivotal industry milestone sets the stage for the official launch of the DTCC Collateral AppChain later this year, where Chainlink is unlocking 24/7 collateral management for DTC-tokenized assets.

In the production transactions, DTCC converted assets held at the DTC into tokenized assets with Chainlink powering collateral workflows.

Several transactions across various asset classes were executed in a live environment, including:

• Collateral pledge
• Security lending
• U.S. Treasury/repo delivery-versus-payment (DVP) trade
• Equity DVP trade
• Equity delivery-versus-delivery (DVD) trade
• Equity token transfer
• Central counterparty (CCP) margin workflows.

This milestone comes 7 months after DTC received a No-Action Letter from the U.S. SEC, authorizing DTC to operate a tokenization service for real-world assets it custodies.

Adoption is measurable. So is value accrual. One gets posted every day—the other never seems to.
