Ondo Finance (ONDO), a favored altcoin within the institutional sector and a key player in tokenization, has joined forces with the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC) to help establish tokenization standards.
The DTCC has officially announced the formation of an industry working group aimed at promoting the tokenization of U.S. capital markets.
As part of this initiative, Ondo Finance has been chosen as a partner in this collaborative effort to develop standardized practices for tokenizing assets within U.S. capital markets.
In a statement shared on its X account, Ondo Finance confirmed its participation in the DTCC Sector Working Group and its commitment to advancing tokenization services.
“…DTCC manages over $114 trillion in assets and processes $3.7 quadrillion annually. It is now creating a tokenization service intended to integrate blockchain technology into U.S. capital markets; Ondo is among the select firms contributing to this development.”
This working group comprises major players from traditional finance (TradFi), including BlackRock, JPMorgan, and Goldman Sachs, alongside more than 50 cryptocurrency companies such as Circle and Robinhood.
The collaboration between leading institutions from both traditional finance and cryptocurrency sectors aims to formulate guidelines that will streamline the incorporation of tokenized assets into existing financial frameworks.
According to DTCC CEO Frank La Salle, “…Our vision is becoming reality: we are launching our tokenization service while establishing an effective bridge between traditional finance (TradFi) and decentralized finance (DeFi). Tokenization will revolutionize market operations by enhancing liquidity, transparency, and efficiency.”
The upcoming DTC’s tokenization service will facilitate converting real-world assets held by DTC into tokens while ensuring that these tokens carry equivalent rights, investor protections, and ownership claims as their traditionally held counterparts.
The first limited production transactions involving real-world asset tokens through DTC’s new service are slated for July 2026 with an official launch planned for October 2026. During this period, DTCC will work closely with members of this working group.
