# Wall Street blockchain and tokenization integration > Live situation record from CLSTR: https://clstr.news/situations/wall-street-blockchain-and-tokenization-integration > Updated: 2026-08-13T22:00:00.000Z. Sources: 4. Developments: 2. Major U.S. financial institutions are transitioning from experimental blockchain testing toward the structural integration of on-chain infrastructure. Initial efforts involved large-scale trials led by the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC), where approximately 40 firms, including JPMorgan Chase and Goldman Sachs, simulated market operations using tokenized U.S. stocks and Treasuries to test real-time settlement and collateral movement. This technological shift is occurring alongside regulatory developments, as the SEC considers ‘Regulation Crypto’ to establish proactive guidelines for digital asset issuance. Industry projections, such as the Citi Institute report ‘Tokenization 2030: Wall Street On-Chain’, suggest the global market for tokenized assets could reach between $2.7 trillion and $8.2 trillion by 2030. This growth is expected to be led by publicly traded equities and government debt, while wealth management models evolve to incorporate tokenized real-world assets and artificial intelligence. ## Timeline ### 2026-08-13: Wall Street shifts toward blockchain-based financial infrastructure Wall Street is transitioning from blockchain experimentation to operational implementation, with Citigroup projecting a tokenized asset market of up to $5.5 trillion by 2030, led by equities and government debt 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/wall-street-shifts-toward-blockchain-based-financial-infrastructure ### 2026-08-11: U.S. financial institutions test blockchain trading as SEC pursues new digital asset rules Wall Street firms are testing blockchain-based trading for stocks and Treasuries while the SEC moves to establish formal ‘Regulation Crypto’ rules to provide clearer digital asset guidelines. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/us-financial-institutions-test-blockchain-trading-as-sec-pursues-new-digital-asset-rules --- Cite as: Wall Street blockchain and tokenization integration.
