DTCC will plug its tokenized stocks, ETFs and Treasuries into Solana in the second half of 2027

Summary

The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation, the backbone of U.S. securities settlement, said Thursday it plans to connect its DTCC Tokenization Service to Solana, according to Decrypt and The Block.

The integration, planned for the second half of 2027, would let eligible assets held at its Depository Trust Company subsidiary be issued as tokens on Solana, the outlets reported.

The service went live on Oct. 28 on the Canton Network and DTCC's own private Besu-based blockchain, and under an SEC no-action letter it is limited to highly liquid assets such as Russell 1000 stocks, major index ETFs and U.S. Treasuries, Decrypt reported.

DTCC said tokens on Solana will keep the same investor protections and ownership rights as traditionally held securities.
