I think this demo by Chainlink and DTCC at Sibos 2026 will be an “aha!” moment that changes the game. The video shows how a $5M lending agreement can be initiated, created, executed, and even settled in seconds. Firms will have a better way to find opportunities and manage risk, and the earnings potential is massive. The orchestration fee shown in the demo was $.14 of LINK.
I’m not the only one excited about Fulcrum. A few quotes from DTCC’s Dan Doney really stood out to me during the demo:
“This is a model that ultimately takes what amounts to transactions in excess of $20T a day and completely automates the process.”
“The transaction we are doing here is the essential transaction in institutional finance”
“Any asset anywhere in any jurisdiction with any custodial system any time of day is now mobile.”
“This kind of system frees up $52T worth of assets.”
This is big. Well worth 35 minutes of time to watch the video.$LINK
