21 October 2025: The Digital Token Identifier Foundation (DTIF) has published its consultation paper seeking industry feedback on the principles underlying its cost recovery model for the DTI service. Periodic public consultations are critical to DTIF’s mission of ensuring that the implementation of the DTI standard fosters transparent and competitive crypto and digital asset markets.

The DTI enables unique identification of all fungible digital assets using distributed ledger technology (DLT) for token issuance, storage, exchange, ownership recording, or transaction validation. This consultation aims to gather feedback on the cost-recovery model for the DTI service, which is vital for the financial viability and sustainability of DTIF. By involving industry stakeholders, we strive to ensure the fee model aligns with market needs and supports prudent financial management.
