by Jake ClaverHedera, LF Decentralized Trust, and DSR: the custody and banking layer institutions need
Hedera, LF Decentralized Trust, and DSR build out the custody and banking layer institutions need. It names real organizations and documents, so the claim can be checked.
The Institutional Plumbing
This material is about the infrastructure institutions need before they can safely hold or settle digital assets. The primary source is the LF Decentralized Trust blog, a blog post, with supporting material from the GDC conference page and the Hiero GitHub org.

The broader research trail also includes the OpenWallet Foundation ACA-Py GitHub, the NIST SP 800-63-4 Digital Identity Guidelines, and the W3C Verifiable Credentials Data Model v2.0.
