DTCC completes US trades using tokenised assets

DTCC successfully completed production trades using tokenised assets on 15 July 2026, with over 30 participants including BlackRock, BNP Paribas, and digital firms. The DTCC Tokenization Service will launch in October 2026, enabling real-time collateral mobility and interoperability between traditional and digital financial ecosystems. DTCC just proved tokenised settlement works at scale and regulators signed off months ago—if you build collateral management, liquidity tools, or custody for digital assets, your buyer just became the infrastructure that moves real money. October launch means six months to ship or get acquired into their ecosystem.
