BlackRock, Vanguard and JPMorgan join DTCC's $114T tokenisation pilot

The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation launched a live tokenization pilot on 15 July with nearly 40 financial institutions, including BlackRock, Vanguard, JPMorgan, Goldman Sachs, and the New York Stock Exchange. The trial tokenises Microsoft shares, QQQ and SPY ETFs, and US Treasuries. DTCC, which safeguards over $114 trillion in securities, plans to launch its commercial Tokenization Service in October. Unlike wrapped tokens on public blockchains, DTCC's digital assets remain fully backed by securities held in custody, giving holders identical legal ownership, dividend, and voting rights. Participants tested equity trades, Treasury transactions, repo operations, and delivery-versus-payment settlement using tokenised assets. The transactions were executed across DTCC's private Hyperledger Besu infrastructure and the Canton Network.
