Ten financial institutions including Citi and JP Morgan will participate in a distributed ledger (DLT) feasibility trial. It involves using tokenized deposits, wholesale central bank money, U.S. Treasuries and other tokenized assets on a shared ledger as part of the Regulated Settlement Network (RSN). The goal is to test settlement on a common regulated venue under existing laws by simulating USD delivery versus payment transactions.

The latest proof of concept (PoC) builds on an initiative last year involving several of the same institutions for the similarly named Regulated Liability Network (RLN).
