Plume Joins DTCC Working Group on Tokenized Securities

The company says its SEC‑registered transfer agent will offer compliance and on‑chain recordkeeping input as DTCC prepares an October commercial launch.

Overview

  • Plume Network announced Thursday that it has joined the DTCC Digital Assets Solutions Industry Working Group to help shape how traditional securities are moved and settled as tokenized assets.
  • Plume highlighted Kimber Transfer Agency’s SEC transfer‑agent registration as a legal bridge to maintain official on‑chain shareholder records for tokenized securities.
  • DTCC completed production trades in July that tested DTC‑custodied tokenized equities, ETFs and Treasury workflows under a three‑year SEC no‑action letter and plans a commercial tokenization service launch in October 2026.
  • Plume’s working‑group membership is advisory and does not mean DTCC has chosen Plume for production integration or issued assets on its network.
  • DTCC aims for a multichain rollout after the October launch, including a planned connection to Stellar in the first half of 2027, and any wider market impact will depend on technical integration, issuer decisions and participant adoption.
