DTCC is rebuilding banking infrastructure using The Graph to move trillions of dollars on blockchain rails.
The Great Collateral Experiment demonstrated instant settlement for repo agreements - a massive improvement over traditional systems that require days and extensive buffer capital.
- Traditional settlement: Days with large capital buffers
- Blockchain settlement: Instant with minimal capital requirements
- DTCC processes quadrillions in securities transactions annually
This represents real institutional blockchain adoption solving trillion-dollar infrastructure problems. The Graph provides critical data indexing to make the system work at scale.
At SmartCon, DTCC and The Graph publicly discussed this collaboration for the first time, showcasing how traditional finance is actually implementing blockchain solutions for improved transparency and efficiency.
The Graph is proud to be part of the Ethereum Protocol Advocacy Alliance, a new effort to contribute the builder perspective to policymaking.
It鈥檚 critical for policy to reflect the pragmatic and technical realities of securing $100B+ onchain, without intermediaries. Meet the Ethereum Protocol Advocacy Alliance.
.@The_DTCC is rebuilding the fundamental infrastructure banks use to move trillions of dollars. And it鈥檚 using The Graph. Here's what that actually looks like 猬囷笍 Earlier this year, DTCC ran "The Great Collateral Experiment." They demonstrated what happens when you move repo
Trusted settlement. Systemic scale. That鈥檚 DTCC: The financial markets infrastructure that reduces risk, increases efficiency and provides stability for the global financial system. The Graph provides the query layer for blockchain data: reliable, indexed and production-grade.

馃實 Geo Protocol Spins Out
**Geo Protocol** has officially spun out from The Graph to become its own independent protocol. Founded by @geobrowser and @yanivgraph after years of building within The Graph ecosystem, Geo focuses on: - **Organizing and verifying knowledge** in an open, composable manner - **Contributing to decentralized data and AI** infrastructure - **Enabling builders** with better tools and protocols The new protocol will continue building on The Graph while expanding the broader ecosystem of decentralized data solutions. This spinout represents a natural evolution for the team, allowing them to focus specifically on knowledge governance and verification systems.
馃巶 Graph's 5th Birthday Brings SF Celebration and Mystery Surprise

馃 Arc Testnet Now Available

**Arc testnet integration with The Graph's Subgraph Studio is now live.** Arc is Circle's new Layer-1 blockchain designed as an "Economic OS" for the internet. The network aims to bridge programmable money and onchain innovation with real-world economic activity. **Key features:** - Deterministic sub-second finality - Stablecoins as native gas - Opt-in configurable privacy - Purpose-built for global financial systems **Target use cases:** - Lending and financial services - Capital markets - Tokenized asset issuance - Worldwide stablecoin settlement Developers can now build subgraphs on Arc to create fast, performant frontends for their applications. The testnet is already seeing participation from companies across capital markets, payments, and developer infrastructure. Circle envisions Arc as public internet infrastructure where financial apps become as accessible as email, with instant fiat currency movement and compliant private transactions at scale.
