DTCC to link Solana to its tokenization service in the second half of 2027

A fourth chain for DTS

DTCC will connect Solana to its tokenization service, the U.S. post-trade group announced. The link to the Solana layer-1 network will be available from the second half of 2027, according to a press release cited by Criptovaluta.it.

Solana becomes the fourth blockchain in the setup. DTCC's tokenization service, known as DTS, already connects to Canton Network and has announced Stellar, with Besu, a private blockchain, also part of the system. The Stellar link is expected in the first part of 2027.

What DTS does

DTS is built by DTCC to tokenize U.S. equities, ETFs and bonds. DTC, the depository arm, holds the securities in the traditional system and converts eligible positions into tokens that can also be traded on a blockchain.

The tokens are not meant to circulate in decentralized finance. Only authorized and identified parties can trade them, according to the report. The stated aim is to give participants a secure form of collateral while using the speed and lower costs of blockchain settlement.

DTCC's reputation, together with its custody and control mechanisms, is presented as the guarantee that each token corresponds to a real security. The service has been live since 28 October 2026.

24/7 trading and the order of chains

DTS already allows trading around the clock, seven days a week. That shift is being examined across U.S. financial markets through several intermediaries, including NYSE and Nasdaq, the report says.

DTCC chose the order of integrations itself: Canton Network first, a blockchain built for this purpose, then Stellar, then Solana. The report does not say what priority DTCC applied. It adds that more blockchains will probably follow, with announcements possibly arriving in quick succession.

Criptovaluta.it also mentions investment through ETN quotations on European exchanges and an opening to gold and other commodities, without giving details of either.
