⚡️ BREAKING: DTCC just circulated new details of its Tokenization Service, covering approximately $30 trillion in assets available for tokenization. Canton Network canton-network:native and DTCC's private Besu network are designated for launch, with Stellar stellar:native and Circle's Arc anticipated in 2027. The service will initially support 25 securities across U.S. equities, ETFs and Treasuries, with settlement, collateral and digital cash capabilities on the roadmap. @CantonNetwork @The_DTCC @BuildOnStellar @circle

Deutsche Bank | October 16, 2026 “Could tokenization become the operating system of global finance?” db.com/news/detail/20261018-…

DTCC and Chainlink jointly unveiled plans for a multichain collateral management infrastructure at Sibos 2026, targeting one of the largest markets in global finance, with $86 trillion in eligible collateral and more than $114 trillion in assets custodied by DTCC. The infrastructure is designed to enable financial institutions to move, finance, and manage tokenized assets across public and private blockchains, potentially reducing billions in funding costs and freeing up capital constrained by fragmented settlement and collateral systems. The architecture combines DTCC's private Collateral AppChain with Chainlink's Runtime Environment (CRE), Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP), and real-time pricing services. Critically, DTCC explicitly identifies public blockchain mainnets as settlement rails, with its private AppChain serving as the execution layer and Chainlink providing the interoperability and orchestration infrastructure connecting these environments. This would allow financial institutions to access liquidity across multiple blockchain networks through a standardized integration point, without building separate infrastructure for each chain. The presentation identifies several economic benefits: • Approximately 15% in participant funding-cost savings. • Up to 50% reduction in daylight overdraft expenses through intraday repo. • A modeled 17% reduction in required high-quality liquid assets when applying the infrastructure to 15% of wholesale funding exposures, potentially saving large banks billions. • More efficient collateral allocation across repurchase agreements, securities lending, and institutional margin requirements. The presentation also details a cross-chain financing demonstration involving a pension fund, hedge fund, tokenized US dollars, and Microsoft shares. Ethereum hosts the financing contracts and tokenized assets, while Chainlink CCIP facilitates collateral transfers to DTCC's private AppChain. Chainlink CRE orchestrates the financing process, including collateral verification and the release of tokenized funds. The architecture also incorporates continuous collateral valuation through real-time price feeds, allowing automated risk controls to maintain required collateral levels rather than relying on end-of-day valuations. DTCC describes the system as neutral market infrastructure, designed to connect multiple blockchain networks, custodians, token issuers, and financial institutions without requiring assets to migrate to a single blockchain. The broader significance extends beyond asset tokenization. The infrastructure is designed to enable tokenized securities and other digital assets to be used across institutional lending, repurchase agreements, margin requirements, and collateral markets. Rather than simply issuing financial assets onchain, DTCC and Chainlink are developing infrastructure to integrate public blockchain settlement networks into the financing, liquidity, and collateral operations of global capital markets. Chainlink is positioned as the interoperability and orchestration layer connecting those systems. ethereum:0x514910771af9ca656af840dff83e8264ecf986ca
