Traditional Market Data Meets Blockchain
Global index provider FTSE Russell is bringing its benchmark data directly to blockchain networks for the first time, using Chainlink’s DataLink oracle system to distribute verified market information.
On-Chain Access for Developers and Institutions
The integration enables over 2,000 decentralized applications across 50 networks to securely access FTSE’s equity, FX, and digital asset indices in real time. This allows developers to build index-tracking products and tokenized benchmarks with institutional-grade accuracy.
Bridging TradFi and DeFi
Chainlink’s oracle technology transforms reference indices into programmable financial primitives, allowing traditional benchmarks to serve as the foundation for on-chain structured products and derivatives.
Industry Impact
Analysts say the collaboration gives DeFi projects legitimacy, connecting $18 trillion worth of benchmark data to the blockchain world and paving the way for auditable, transparent financial tools.
