Chainlink Unveils 24/7 Pricing for Tokenized Assets as Aave Adopts Feeds
TL;DR: The service extends a prior 24/5 equity-data product into weekends and holidays. An oracle feed is not a guarantee of a redeemable cash-market price, and an off-hours derivative reference can diverge from the next opening auction. Chainlink introduced its 24/7 data service on October 29 to supply reference prices for equities, commodities and other…
Hanwha Chooses Chainlink Data and CCIP for Global Tokenization Platform
TL;DR: The proposal covers more than representing an asset with an on-chain token. A strategic partnership does not establish that the platform is fully operational, that collateral has already changed hands or that tokenized instruments have universal legal recognition. Hanwha Investment & Securities announced on October 29 that it would adopt Chainlink data standards and…
Chainlink Launches CustodySync With Anchorage to Link Custody and DeFi Loans
TL;DR: Chainlink describes a workflow spanning collateral deposit, borrowing, repayment and liquidation. Keeping assets in custody does not automatically remove smart-contract, oracle, liquidation or legal-enforcement risk. Chainlink announced CustodySync on October 26 with Anchorage Digital as its initial partner. The service aims to synchronize information between qualified custodians and decentralised lending protocols, allowing eligible institutions…
Further Asset Management Taps Chainlink ACE for Abu Dhabi Compliance Platform
TL;DR: The company described jurisdiction-specific rules that can be encoded into workflows so institutions can assess requirements before a tokenized asset moves. A machine-readable rule is only as sound as its legal interpretation, reference data and update process. Further Asset Management said on October 27 that its Anubis compliance platform would incorporate Chainlink’s Automated Compliance…

Aave, Lombard, Venus, Veda and several other platforms are already adopting the infrastructure. One of DeFi‘s most stubborn problems is not finding yield.…
Chainlink And Swift Demo Automated Tokenized-Equity Dividends Across Four Blockchains
TL;DR Chainlink built a Swift Hackathon solution that automated a cash-dividend workflow for tokenized equities across four blockchains. The system used Swift messaging, Chainlink Runtime Environment and ISO 20022 standards to coordinate the process from announcement through payment and reconciliation. It was a hackathon demonstration, not a production-market launch. Tokenized stocks are easy to describe…
Chainlink Launches CCIP 2.0 With Extra Security Controls For Tokenized Assets

Chainlink is positioning the upgrade for banks and asset issuers moving regulated assets across multiple blockchains. Chainlink has launched the next version of its cross-chain…
Chainlink Releases Node v2.65.0 With Confidential Workflow Monitoring Fix
TL;DR Chainlink has published core node software v2.65.0. The release includes a monitoring change that separates user-caused confidential-workflow enclave failures from system-caused failures. It is an infrastructure maintenance release rather than a new Chainlink product launch. Chainlink has pushed out core node software v2.65.0, giving operators another incremental infrastructure update only days after the previous…
Charles Schwab Expands Crypto Platform Beyond Bitcoin And Ethereum
Charles Schwab is expanding its crypto platform beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum, adding support for Solana, Avalanche, and Chainlink exposure, according to validated platform materials.
