It is a single-speaker crypto/finance commentary (speaker labeled SPEAKER A) explaining that the DTCC reportedly moved $87 trillion of US securities onto a blockchain in partnership with Canton Network, that DTCC joined the Canton Foundation board alongside Euroclear, and that a first live deployment is expected in the first half of 2026. The speaker argues this infrastructure shift could unlock large institutional capital, change settlement rails for Wall Street, and have major implications for crypto markets, and urges viewers to follow for updates.

The DTCC just moved $87 trillion of US securities onto a blockchain and nobody covered it. There's literally a company, if you didn't know, called the DTCC that handles almost every US stock trade. They just announced that they're moving $87 trillion of securities on a blockchain. Every major news outlet missed it. And if you own crypto, this is bigger than any Bitcoin ETF approval. Most people have never even heard of the DTCC. I didn't hear of it until I I started researching it, and that's the point. It stands for the Depository Trust and Clearing Corporation. They hold the records for $87 trillion in US stocks and bonds. Every time you buy a share of Apple or Tesla, the final ownership records live at DTCC. There was a partnership announced on December 17th with Canton Network. Now they're still building infrastructure. This is why we don't see it in price yet, but as soon as regulation comes through, All of that money is unlocked. Basically, there's like a line of it's not on the blockchain to it's on the blockchain, and they just moved the goalpost really, really close to the altcoins that we currently hold. That's the point of all of this. There's a lot of potential energy that has not been unlocked yet. As soon as regulation goes through, it's over. So Canton Network is basically a shared blockchain that all big financial institutions are building together. Think of it as a private version of Ethereum, but just for Wall Street. First live version goes live The first half of 2026, the DTCC also joined the board of Canton Foundation as co-chair right next to Euroclear, which is a European version of the DTCC. So the backbone of US securities is moving on the blockchain alongside the backbone of the European version in the first half of 2026. These companies settled trillions of dollars, guys. And they need a new payment rail. The technology will always change, but the operators that make all the money don't. If you're on cryptocurrency, no matter how much money you lost, you're just fine. You just have to understand what they're doing on the back end. You can't look at the public news. Stay up to date. Follow me for more.
