DTCC Expands Its Multi-Chain Strategy to Solana.
The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC), the premier post-trade market infrastructure for the global financial services industry, announced plans to enable the tokenization of eligible DTC-custodied assets on Solana. The planned integration will bring Solana into the growing network of blockchains supported by the DTCC Tokenization Service (DTS), expanding access to leading blockchain networks and advancing DTCC’s broader multi-chain strategy.
In 2025, DTCC subsidiaries processed securities transactions valued at $4.7 quadrillion, and its depository provided custody and asset servicing for securities from more than 150 countries valued at $114 trillion. Through DTS, eligible DTC-custodied assets can be made available in tokenized form, connecting traditional market infrastructure with digital asset ecosystems while preserving the protections of traditional markets.
Here is what the integration involves:
- The DTCC Tokenization Service will connect with Solana in the second half of 2027.
- Eligible traditional assets can then be converted into tokenized form, with full token lifecycle functionality.
- DTC-tokenized assets made available on Solana will retain the same investor protections, ownership rights and regulatory safeguards that apply to traditionally held securities.
For market participants, adding Solana expands the blockchain networks available through DTS, providing greater choice in where they can access and utilize DTC-tokenized assets and creating opportunities for liquidity, collateral mobility and capital efficiency.
Why Solana
Institutions are already issuing securities, settling transactions, and deploying capital on Solana. Its sub-second finality and low fees let tokenized securities settle and move as easily as any other asset onchain, around the clock. By integrating Solana with DTS, DTCC is expanding access to another leading blockchain network while giving market participants greater choice in where they can access and utilize DTC-tokenized assets.
"Institutions chose Solana because it already runs real financial activity at scale. Bringing the DTCC Tokenization Service to Solana connects one of the most trusted names in post-trade infrastructure with a network built for always-on markets, enabling tokenized securities to settle and move as easily as any other asset onchain." — Nick Ducoff, GM, Institutional, Solana Foundation
