Morgan Stanley has become one of the first banks to tokenize real-world assets through DTCC's newly launched Tokenization Services (DTS), converting U.S. equities and Treasuries into tokenized forms. The announcement marks a significant milestone in institutional adoption of blockchain-based securities infrastructure. DTCC introduced DTS on October 28, enabling the creation of tokenized representations backed by securities held in Depository Trust Company custody. The service aims to enhance liquidity, collateral mobility, and capital efficiency for traditional financial instruments. Morgan Stanley's early participation signals growing momentum among major financial institutions toward integrating tokenization into core settlement and custody workflows.
