The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC) plans to ensure the issuance of tokenized versions of securities held in custody at its subsidiary Depository Trust Company (DTC) on the Solana blockchain in the second half of 2027. This is stated in the organization's official statement.
The integration involves connecting the network to the DTCC Tokenization Service (DTS), which enables the conversion of traditional financial instruments into tokenized form and back.
The service was launched on October 28, 2026. Initially, it became available on the Canton Network and DTCC's private blockchain, built on the Hyperledger Besu platform.
At the first stage, the infrastructure supports certain categories of American securities, in particular stocks of companies from the Russell 1000 index, exchange-traded funds (ETFs) on major stock indices, and U.S. government bonds. The project is being implemented within the framework of a previously obtained permit from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
President and CEO of DTCC Frank La Salla noted that the Solana connection will expand market participants' capabilities to use tokenized instruments while preserving the investor protection mechanisms that operate in the traditional financial market.
According to Brian Steele, president of DTCC Clearing & Securities Services, assets issued through DTS will provide the same ownership rights and regulatory guarantees as conventional securities.
The company also expects that the integration will increase the efficiency of using collateral and moving capital between traditional and blockchain platforms.
Previously, Securitize presented a project for regulated trading of tokenized shares on Solana with the participation of Jump Trading and Jupiter. In addition, the Backpack platform announced the launch of the Backpack Securities service, which provides for the possibility of tokenizing shares in this network.
The DTCC initiative is developing against the backdrop of the expanding market for tokenized real-world assets (RWA). According to data, as of November 12, 2026, the value of distributed tokenized assets, excluding stablecoins, reached $39.84 billion.
For comparison, in March the figure was about $25 billion. Thus, over eight months the sector grew by approximately 59%. At the same time, the value of RWA on the Solana network reached $5.1 billion, making it one of the largest platforms by this metric.
