What stands out

Wall Street isn't experimenting with blockchain anymore; it's building on it. The clip walks through how the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC) ran a tokenized securities test with JPMorgan, Goldman Sachs, BlackRock and Nasdaq, and why Visa sees stablecoins as the plumbing for artificial intelligence (AI)-driven commerce. That combination, tokenized post-trade rails plus payments tied to programmable money, turns blockchain from an optional experiment into potential shared infrastructure, while regulatory moves like Tether's freezes and the Clarity Act debate show policy will shape who actually wins.
