Key Takeaways:
- Ondo Finance expanded its partnership with DTCC for tokenized stock issuance
- ONDO token gained nearly 5%, pushing back to its 50-day EMA
- DTCC successfully processed live tokenized trades with 30-plus firms on July 15
Key Takeaways:

ONDO, the native token of Ondo Finance on Ethereum, rose nearly 5% after the protocol expanded its partnership with the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation to issue tokenized representations of stocks, the largest institutional push yet into real-world asset tokenization.
"The DTCC Tokenization Service will institutionalize tokenized markets on day one and will be a critical enabler of the digital ecosystem of the future, while reinforcing trust, safety and scale in a digital world," Frank La Salla, President and CEO of DTCC, said in a statement.
The rally pushed ONDO back to its 50-day exponential moving average after the token rebounded from a key ascending trendline, putting traders on watch for a potential breakout. The move came as DTCC on July 15 successfully converted assets held at its DTC depository into tokens used in live production trades across collateral pledges, securities lending, US Treasury repo delivery-versus-payment trades, and equity DVP trades — all processed over several hours in a production environment.
The milestone sets the stage for the DTCC Tokenization Service to launch in October 2026. More than 30 firms participated in the trial, including BlackRock, JPMorgan, Goldman Sachs, Vanguard, BNP Paribas, Citadel Securities, Circle, and Ondo Finance. The conversions ran on HyperLedger Besu, DTCC's private network, and Canton, a public network, as part of a multi-chain strategy. DTC received a no-action letter from the US Securities and Exchange Commission in December 2025 authorizing the tokenization service.
Ondo Finance, which tokenizes short-term US Treasuries and other real-world assets, now sits at the intersection of traditional finance's blockchain push and the growing RWA tokenization sector. The DTCC partnership signals that major market infrastructure providers are moving beyond pilot programs into production environments, potentially accelerating capital flows into tokenized securities protocols. The DTCC Industry Working Group backing the service has grown to more than 100 members and partners.
