Ondo integrates Chainlink to power institutional adoption of tokenized stocks and ETFs
Tokenized real-world assets platform Ondo Finance, and leading oracle network Chainlink, have joined forces to accelerate adoption of tokenized stocks and exchange-traded funds onchain.
- Ondo and Chainlink team up to bring global finance onchain
- Chainlink is now the official oracle provider for tokenized stocks and ETFs.
- CCIP is the preferred interoperability solution for institutions within the ecosystem.
Ondo Finance and Chainlink said in an announcement on Thursday that their strategic partnership aims to bring global financial institutions to the blockchain. This comes as the platforms bid to build the infrastructure that will see the tokenization of trillions of dollars in real-world assets.
Why it matters
As part of the collaboration, Chainlink ( LINK ) is now the official oracle provider for Ondo Finance ( ONDO ) tokenized stocks and ETFs.
The partnership also makes Chainlink’s cross-chain interoperability protocol the preferred solution for institutional cross-chain initiatives within the Ondo ecosystem.
Teaming up also means Chainlink becomes a member of the Ondo Global Market Alliance, collaborative effort that brings together key industry players such as wallets, exchanges, and custodians. Global Markets Alliance targets adoption of tokenized securities as global markets come onchain.
“The tokenization of real-world assets is a fundamental shift in how global markets operate. Ondo’s deployment of tokenized stocks using Chainlink showcases what institutional-grade tokenized stocks look like in production,” said Sergey Nazarov, co-founder of Chainlink.
Ondo brings over 100 tokenized stocks onchain
Leveraging Chainlink’s solutions to secure its tokenized stocks allows Ondo to redefine onchain access for traditional financial instruments.
“This is how we build the next generation of capital markets,” Nazarov noted.
Ondo Global Markets boasts over 100 tokenized stocks and ETFs onchain and over $300 million in total value locked. Chainlink’s solutions mean Ondo can tap into custom price feeds, with all key economic events, including dividends and valuations, accessible onchain.
“By adopting Chainlink as the official oracle infrastructure for our tokenized stocks we’re making our tokenized assets seamlessly composable across DeFi and institutional rails,” said Nathan Allman, founder and chief executive officer of Ondo Finance.

The AI boom may follow the path of the 19th-century railway bubble, and builders may not be the ultimate winners
Goldman Sachs analyst Bobby Molavi compared the current situation to the 19th-century British railway mania: 500 companies spent more than the nation's annual income building 8,000 miles of railway, with most early investors losing out, while the real beneficiaries were the later "passengers." He pointed out that the current AI craze is driven by both debt and momentum, and that the S&P 500’s forward P/E ratio of 18x is only "a bit cheaper." Whether the builders can retain value is uncertain, and history does not offer an optimistic answer.
