Tokenization of traditional financial assets is no longer just a future vision — this transformation is accelerating in the US market.
The depository trust company(DTCC), under the US Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation(DTC), recently received formal approval from the US Securities and Exchange Commission(SEC), to operate as a tokenization service provider for a period of three years. This authorization covers the main asset classes held in DTC custody: Russell 1000 index components, popular ETF products, and US government bonds.
More importantly, this is not a hollow promise. DTCC has confirmed plans to launch partial asset tokenization in the second half of 2026. This means that from blue-chip stocks listed on the New York Stock Exchange to the most liquid US Treasury bonds, all are expected to enter the blockchain ecosystem.
This step marks the transition of traditional capital markets and crypto finance from the theoretical stage to practical implementation. The era of on-chain liquidity for US stocks and government bonds is no longer a distant story.

Wow, is DTCC really taking action? Launching in 2026, this is no joke. U.S. government bonds will be tokenized on the blockchain...
---
Alright, finally the day has come. The giants of traditional finance will also have to lower their heads and behave.
---
Something feels off. Why did the SEC approve so quickly... Is there something behind the scenes that we don't know?
---
Tokenization of U.S. Treasury bonds? If this really happens, the entire market landscape will be reshuffled.
---
Both DTC and SEC, doing a lot of superficial work. We'll see if they can actually pull it off in the second half of 2026.
---
Laughable, what do people who said tokenization was a scam say now?
---
2026, still two more years to wait. By then, it will be another story.
---
This time, TradFi has really started to get serious. It feels like the wind is coming.

Launching in the second half of 2026? That's a bit of a conservative timeline, but the fact that an institution like DTCC dares to come forward and speak about it shows it's definitely not just talk. The on-chain transformation of the capital markets has been long overdue.

No way, it starts in 2026? I thought it would be available next year. I'm a bit disappointed.

Wait, is DTCC really going on-chain? The second half of 2026, this can't be just boasting.

Wait, is DTC really going on the chain? I said early supporters are about to take off. The ones who were called "scammers" before, what do you all say now? Haha
