A viral screenshot suggesting that the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC) has listed or classified XRP on its platform is based on an AI-generated search response, not official policy. XRPL validator Vet clarified that the claim stems from a search on the DTCC Learning Center website, where an AI summary titled "XRP Haircut and Classification" appeared. The cited source, however, does not actually mention XRP.
How the AI Misled Users
The DTCC Learning Center uses Coveo, an AI-powered enterprise search tool, to generate answers for frequently searched topics. Vet explained that repeated searches for XRP by community members triggered the AI to produce a response, even though the underlying documentation lacks any reference to the cryptocurrency. The generated summary includes a disclaimer that content may contain errors, and HTML elements confirm it is a Coveo-generated answer.
DTCC's Real Digital Asset Moves
The confusion comes as DTCC announced successful live production trades using DTC-tokenized securities on Wednesday. The initiative involved over 30 financial institutions, including BlackRock, Goldman Sachs, J.P. Morgan, and Circle, but notably not Ripple. The AI glitch highlights how enterprise search tools can misinterpret user behavior, but it does not reflect any official DTCC action regarding XRP.
