DTCC adds Solana to its plans for tokenized Wall Street securities, aiming for the second half of 2027

DTCC, the US securities post-trade group whose depository held about $114 trillion of securities in 2025, is adding Solana to its tokenization plans. It said on Thursday it plans to connect its tokenization service to Solana, letting eligible assets held at its Depository Trust Company subsidiary be tokenized on that network. The integration is planned for the second half of 2027.

DTCC's tokenization service went live on October 28 on Canton Network and DTCC's private Besu network, The Block reported. Under a December 2025 no-action letter from the SEC, DTC can tokenize Russell 1000 stocks, major US equity index ETFs and US Treasury bills, notes and bonds. CoinDesk said Stellar and Circle's Arc network are also on DTCC's roadmap for next year.

The choice matters for Solana because most tokenized stock trading on it today uses synthetic tokens that do not carry the same shareholder rights as the underlying shares, CoinDesk noted, putting tokenized stocks on Solana at about $600 million. DTCC says securities tokenized through its service keep the ownership rights, investor protections and regulatory safeguards of traditionally held shares. No launch date beyond the second half of 2027 was given.
