The post-trade giant plans to make DTC-custodied assets available on the Stellar public blockchain in the first half of 2027, adding a second network to its growing tokenization strategy

The Collateral AppChain will use the Chainlink Runtime Environment to automate eligibility, margining and settlement across global markets, with production launch slated for Q4 2026.

The DTC unit will begin processing limited tokenized trades in July before opening the service more broadly in October.

A new report from DTCC, Clearstream, Euroclear, and the Boston Consulting Group advocates for interoperable infrastructure across blockchain and traditional ledgers.

The DTCC's launchpad aims to provide a unified ecosystem for digital asset pilots targeting mainstream financial applications.
