More DTC Info:
(thanks again to STOCKPICKER4LIFE)
WHAT IS DTC ELIGIBILITY?
DTC Eligibility means that a public company’s securities are able to be deposited through DTC. DTC is the largest securities depository in the world and holds over thirty-five trillion dollars worth of securities on deposit. DTC accepts deposits of securities from its participants only, who are usually clearing firms. Most brokers clear stock in-house or hire a clearing firm to do so on their behalf. All movements of securities are made to the participant’s account electronically with book-entry adjustments.
Please Contact Us with Your Name, Company Name, Phone, Ticker Symbol and Email address to see if we can help you obtain DTC eligibility or to solve other DTC related issues. We can then provide you with a estimated cost to obtain DTC Eligibility.
If an issuer is not DTC eligible, then its shares cannot be transferred between brokerage accounts electronically, which basically means its shares cannot be traded easily. Major Exchanges such as NYSE and NASDAQ require DTC eligibility. Other Platforms such as the OTC Bulletin Board and the Pink Sheet markets do not. Only a DTC participant can request that DTC make a security eligible. Most large U.S. broker-dealers and banks are DTC participants. Once an issuer has been approved for trading by FINRA, they must apply to DTC for their initial eligibility to trade. If DTC approves the application they will hold all of the issuer’s free-trading street name shares on deposit. As with a Form 15C-211 submission to FINRA , an issuer cannot make a direct application to DTC for eligibility. The issuer must have a relationship with a broker-dealer or other financial institution that is a participant and will sponsor the eligibility process. This firm is also known as the “market-maker”. They will carry the initial position in inventory on behalf of their firm. A current List of DTC Participants (http://www.dtcc.com/downloads/membership/directories/dtc/alpha.pdf) is available on DTC’s web site. The Issuer must also have a transfer agent such as Securities Transfer Corporation that has completed and has on file with DTC a DTC Operational Arrangements Agent Letter, and must also be a participating in DTC’s FAST (Fast Automated Securities Transfer) program.
It is a well-known fact in the securities industry that DTC retains the right to deny a company the ability to use their depository without providing a reason for the denial. Therefore, the eligibility review process should include a clean presentation of facts and documents that meet DTC’s standards. Eligibility requirements include that the securities must be; issued in a transaction registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”); or issued in a transaction exempt from registration pursuant to a ’33 Act exemption, that at the time of the request for DTC eligibility no longer involves transfer or ownership restrictions; or eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144A or Regulation S under the ’33 Act (and must otherwise meet DTC’s eligibility criteria).

From my understanding,
the DTCC's subsidiary, The Depository Trust Company (DTC), established in 1973, was created to reduce costs and provide clearing and settlement efficiencies by immobilizing securities and making "book-entry" changes to ownership of the securities.
If a stock is bought or sold on the open market it goes through the DTC, I have always used the DTC number as the float, because I always thought the float cannot be higher than that.
So as it stands today, there are no DTC shares therefore no shares have been registered with the SEC as ready for sale.
This is my understanding, someone enlighten me
