DTCC, Wall Street's post-trade powerhouse, tests tokenized markets with industry heavy hitters

DTCC, Wall Street's settlement and clearance infrastructure operator, is conducting live tests of tokenized securities markets with major banks and brokers. The trials aim to validate blockchain-based post-trade infrastructure as a viable alternative to current centralised settlement systems.
