Wall Street clearing giant DTCC is collaborating with multiple Layer 1s to push corporate actions such as dividends on-chain

DTCC (Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation) CEO Frank La Salla stated that the company is collaborating with multiple high-performance Layer 1 blockchains to explore migrating complex corporate actions such as dividend payments and tender offers to on-chain processing.La Salla mentioned at the Consensus 2026 conference that most blockchains still lack efficiency in handling corporate actions, while DTCC needs to process millions of dividend payments daily, thus requiring support from Layer 1 networks with high throughput and stability. DTCC is one of the core infrastructures of the U.S. capital markets, handling approximately $20 trillion in U.S. Treasury and securities transactions daily. The organization plans to launch a tokenized securities platform test in July this year, aiming for a broader rollout in October.La Salla believes that "tokenized collateral" could become the first large-scale institutional application scenario for blockchain. In the future, Asian institutions could even access dollar liquidity in real-time through on-chain collateral during New York's Sunday hours. However, he also warned that blockchain still faces issues such as scalability, liquidity fragmentation, and risk management, especially the efficiency of "net settlement" in traditional financial systems, which remains difficult to replicate in a decentralized environment.

DTCC will launch limited trading of tokenized assets in July, having received feedback from BlackRock, Circle, and others

The core institution for custody and settlement in the U.S. market, the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC), announced that it will begin facilitating preliminary, limited real asset production transactions in July 2026, with a full launch of its tokenization services in October. This service was approved at the end of last year through a No-Action Letter from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), allowing DTCC to provide participants with the ability to tokenize specific high liquidity assets on a pre-approved blockchain during a three-year authorization period. These assets include components of the Russell 1000 Index, ETFs tracking major U.S. stock indices, as well as U.S. Treasury securities, notes, and bonds.DTCC President and CEO Frank La Salla stated, "We believe that tokenization will significantly change the way markets operate, bringing new levels of liquidity, transparency, and efficiency to investors." More than 50 companies are set to participate in DTCC's industry working group, including Morgan Stanley, Nasdaq, Kraken's parent company Payward, and Robinhood Markets, while companies like BlackRock and Circle have provided feedback. As financial firms explore bringing traditional assets onto the blockchain, interest in tokenization has surged, and this shift is expected to enable 24/7 trading and faster settlement speeds.
