Connected Projects

DTCC's Canton involvement was announced on December 17, 2025 through a joint initiative with Digital Asset Holdings to tokenize a subset of DTC-custodied U.S. Treasury securities on the Canton Network. The collaboration was unlocked by a No-Action Letter from the SEC enabling DTCC to tokenize real-world, DTC-custodied assets. As part of the announcement, DTCC took a co-chair seat in the Canton Foundation alongside Euroclear, formally embedding the two largest post-trade infrastructures in the network's decentralized governance. The technical work uses DTCC's ComposerX platform suite, and Brian Steele (DTCC Managing Director) framed it as a continuation of DTCC's earlier collateral-mobility experiments on Canton.
