DTCC to Tokenize Custody Assets on the Stellar Network, Launching in 2027

Huo Xing Finance reports that the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC) and the Stellar Development Foundation have announced a partnership to deploy DTCC’s custodied asset tokenization services on the Stellar network, with the related assets scheduled for official launch in the first half of 2027. DTCC received a no-action letter from the U.S. SEC in December 2025, permitting it to engage in real-world asset tokenization. The two parties will focus on tokenizing highly liquid assets such as Russell 1000 components, major index ETFs, U.S. Treasuries, and various bonds. This collaboration leverages the Stellar network to establish a compliant on-chain channel, marking a significant step in traditional financial infrastructure’s adoption of blockchain and further expanding the use cases for real-world asset tokenization.
