Institutions require interoperability, composability, and verifiability from blockchain networks. Only open networks like Stellar can enable those features.
Not every network can be both practical and blazing fast, but we manage 🏃🏻♂️
Dan Doney, Managing Director and CTO of @The_DTCC explains that trust starts with your track record, and ours is airtight.
Trust and reliable infrastructure are the foundation of our five-year partnership with @MoneyGram.

"Tokenizing just to tokenize is not beneficial. You tokenize because it is best for the fund."

When evaluating blockchain networks, @The_DTCC focuses on key priorities aligned to institutional requirements.
The Stellar network aligns strongly across these areas ⬇️

As @nchakar put it, institutions such as @The_DTCC have rigorous standards.
So do we.
Our emphasis on compliance and insistence on institutional excellence make Stellar the go-to network for partners like DTCC.
"The deal is a significant step toward connecting the regulated core of U.S. capital markets to public blockchain infrastructure, and reinforces @The_DTCC's stated strategy of building across multiple Layer 1 and Layer 2 networks."
