The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation to Launch Tokenized Collateral Platform

The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC) today announced a tokenized real-time collateral management platform, with plans for a live demonstration on April 23. A key reason for the excitement around tokenized collateral is the ability to use a variety of assets for collateral for margin calls, with almost instant settlement.

Usually collateral would be subject to conventional settlement timing, currently T+1 in the United States. It also allows many other types of intraday transactions that would otherwise take more than a day to settle. There were some early movers in this sector, including JP Morgan’s Tokenized Collateral Network and HQLAᵡ in Europe. 

With the Trump administration leaning into blockchain, things are now moving faster stateside. The CFTC and CME have separately announced tokenized collateral plans, Digital Asset’s Canton Network is advancing its collateral initiative that includes Euroclear, and New York Stock Exchange owner ICE recently announced a collaboration with stablecoin issuer Circle for collateral including the USDY tokenized money market fund. 

“Collateral mobility is the ‘killer app’ for institutional use of blockchain – we’ve pulled together a coalition of technologists and market participants to successfully showcase how the speed and openness of this technology can safely and reliably unlock liquidity in traditional markets at scale,” said Dan Doney, Chief Technology Officer of DTCC Digital Assets. “By using smart contracts to automate the full range of collateral operations, we enable complex trade execution across markets in real-time at any time, even in volatile conditions.” The DTCC offering uses its DTCC AppChain, a blockchain based on Ethereum-compatible Hyperledger Besu.
