Crypto Asset Class Evolves US Capital Markets

📢 Today, The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC) hit a significant milestone for the future of financial infrastructure. The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC) has successfully processed U.S. trades using DTC-tokenized assets, marking a major step forward ahead of its Tokenization Service launch in October 2026. This initiative serves as a powerful proof point for the coexistence of legacy and Web3 ecosystems, successfully bridging TradFi and DeFi with the institutional rigor the industry demands. DTCC has spent more than a decade building the expertise that makes this milestone possible. This is the next big step for new infrastructure that will power the financial systems for decades to come. We applaud their vision and execution. As a founding premier member of LFDT (and Hyperledger too), DTCC has supported the open development and governance of ledger technologies since day one. Besu, an LFDT project, is one of the core technologies underpinning this platform. Today’s news is a defining moment for the digital asset ecosystem. And further demonstrates the critical role openly developed and governed technology is playing in the evolution of global finance. We congratulate the DTCC team and their partners in this accomplishment. Read on here: https://lnkd.in/emY4WaRF #DTCC #LFDT #Tokenization #Besu #DigitalAssets #FinTech #DeFi

What a milestone for our industry. Proud to see Talos at the center of one of the largest tokenization initiatives to date, helping power live trading and settlement for tokenized US equities and Treasuries alongside The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC) and an outstanding group of industry leaders. As Head of EMEA Sales, it’s incredibly exciting to see the vision of institutional digital assets becoming a reality. This isn’t just another proof of concept, it’s a live demonstration of how tokenized assets can move seamlessly through the entire trade lifecycle, from execution to on-chain settlement, with multiple institutions participating. This is exactly the kind of infrastructure the market has been waiting for, and it’s a major step toward a future where tokenization becomes part of the financial system’s core operating model. Congratulations to everyone involved at Talos and to our partners at The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC), Bitgo Digital Asset, DriveWealth, Flow Traders & Marex . Looking forward to what’s next as we head toward the DTCC Tokenization Service launch in October 2026. The future of capital markets is being built today and it’s an exciting time to be part of it. #Tokenization #DigitalAssets #CapitalMarkets #Blockchain #InstitutionalFinance #TradFi #FinTech #Talos #DTCC #Innovation

Proud to have supported Velocity Capital, LLC's participation in DTCC's successful tokenization event this week. Prometheum Capital provided and operated the crypto asset custodial infrastructure behind a tokenized equity conversion: DTCC converted a traditional equity position into a tokenized representation on the Besu blockchain, and Prometheum Capital custodied the asset through our omnibus wallet on behalf of Velocity Capital. This is the value we built for broker-dealers: turnkey access to the next phase of market structure without stepping outside the federal securities framework.

We are proud to have participated in a landmark moment for the future of financial markets! Today, in partnership with The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC), DriveWealth executed a real transaction involving a tokenized equity share on a regulated blockchain rail, then detokenized the asset back into traditional form at day's end — a live proof point that tokenized securities can move through their full lifecycle within the regulated framework investors already trust. This milestone is a direct extension of our mission to power the future of investing and we're excited to keep building toward what's next.

Every few years, capital markets gets a headline everyone remembers. Zero-commission trading. GameStop phenomenon. Bitcoin ETFs approved. I believe today's launch of The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC)'s tokenized securities platform is another one of those defining moments. Excited that Chainlink Labs is helping write the next chapter as financial markets move onchain!

Huge tokenization milestone: earlier today we worked with The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC), a number of our clients and partners to trade and settle several tokenized traditional assets on-chain using the Canton Network, supporting the full trade lifecycle through our platform! At Talos we strongly believe that ultimately all assets will be digital assets. Today the industry takes a major step in that direction. I look forward to expanding the scope, the cadence and the traction later this year! Congratulations and big thank you to our team and to everyone of our partners for all their hard, relentless work.

We're proud to have participated in The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC)'s successful processing of U.S. Treasury transactions using tokenized assets held at The Depository Trust Company (DTC) — the largest tokenization production initiative to date. At Tradeweb, we see tokenization as an important next step in the evolution of electronic trading and market infrastructure. This initiative demonstrates how tokenized assets can help modernize markets, improve efficiency and strengthen connectivity as trading workflows continue to evolve.

Congratulations to The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC) on delivering the largest tokenization production initiative to date. As the only regulated qualified custodian integrated into DTCC tokenization services, BitGo is proud to have facilitated this milestone with our regulated wallet and settlement infrastructure, helping enable secure management of DTC-tokenized securities. BitGo is committed to providing the trusted infrastructure institutions need as traditional digital capital markets continue to converge alongside our partners including Marex, DriveWealth, Talos, Temple Digital Group, and Tradeweb. The significance of these trades extends well beyond tokenization itself and demonstrates that regulated market infrastructure can bridge traditional and digital markets, opening the door to greater capital efficiency, interoperability, and new sources of liquidity. We’re excited to build what comes next.
