The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC) has advanced its main blockchain project to a testing phase with 15 global banks, one of the last steps before taking the tech live.

Announced today, U.K.-based Barclays (LON:BARC) is among the global banks participating in the test, while the other 14 were not named. Together they will be kicking the tires of DTCC's distributed ledger and cloud-based platform for its credit derivatives Trade Information Warehouse (TIW).

Upon successful completion, DTCC expects to move to an "open" testing phase by the end of the year, it said in a statement.
