Regulation & Gov ·
Edel has joined over 100 institutions participating in the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation's Tokenization Service initiative, which is slated to launch in the fourth quarter of 2026. The effort has secured backing from major U.S. capital markets players and represents a coordinated push to bring tokenized securities and settlement infrastructure onchain at scale.
The DTCC, which operates as the central post-trade utility for U.S. securities markets, processes quadrillions of dollars in transactions annually and safekeeps more than 100 trillion dollars in assets. Its tokenization service aims to move real-world assets and collateral onto blockchain rails, reducing settlement friction and enabling faster clearing cycles. The initiative connects legacy Wall Street infrastructure to permissioned and public blockchain networks, bridging traditional finance and decentralized systems.
The precise scope of Edel's role within the consortium and the specific technical or business functions the platform will provide remain unspecified in available announcements. Details on which other institutions are part of the 100+ participant group have not been disclosed.
