🌪️DTCC x $XLM collabs taken the industry by storm
But for those who have been keeping up with Stellar...
You'd know Stellar was LONG overdue for recognition of their efforts in RWAs over the past few years.
✅RWAs from Franklin Temple, WisdomTree, etc
✅$1.8 Bil in RWA TVL on-chain
✅Key RWA collabs w Archax & Amundi
✅Proven payment utility with govts & F500s
And now seeing Stellar become the FIRST chain selected by the DTCC?
Stellar's proven institutional grade utility in payments since before most DLT projects today were born,
But over the past few years they've REALLY ramped up their role in institutional tokenization.
And clearly... The DTCC's recognized that
“What Does DTCC Do?”😶🌫️
The most important company that 99% of people never heard of.💯
“It’s the backbone of the entire financial structure.”🌐
And in times of crisis, the DTCC always introduces innovative solutions. 😏💨
Listen closely to hear the truth behind the DTCC.👇
DTCC and the Stellar Development Foundation announced today plans to enable the tokenization of DTC‑custodied assets on the @StellarOrg network. This collaboration advances DTCC’s multi chain strategy and expands how traditional assets move across digital ecosystems.
DTC‑tokenized assets are expected to be made available on the Stellar network in the first half of 2027, supporting the evolution of a more open, interoperable, and efficient financial ecosystem.

@BTC2Zero@uptownsaul If there were a few very rich, very rational people who really believed that there was a 1% chance that XRP could hit $10K in 10 years, they'd bid XRP up to at least $20 today. Why aren't they? Conspiracy?
