The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC), the giant at the heart of U.S. securities markets, went live with its tokenization service Wednesday, taking a step toward bringing stocks, bonds and funds onto blockchain infrastructure. The service is available on the Canton Network CC $0.1146 and DTCC's private Besu blockchain, initially supporting select large-cap stocks from the Russell 1000 index, exchange-traded funds (ETF) and U.S. Treasury bills, notes and bonds. DTCC’s product website says 34 securities are eligible at launch, which represent approximately $30 trillion market value, a DTCC spokesperson told CoinDesk.
