Nasdaq’s recent move to embrace tokenized stocks and exchange-traded products is part of a global transformation to move all the world’s assets onchain, with Chainlink at the center of this generational paradigm shift. Last week, Chainlink Co-Founder Sergey Nazarov met with U.S. SEC Chairman Paul Atkins (Paul Atkins) to discuss scaling the U.S. tokenized asset economy with highly reliable onchain data, cross-chain interoperability, and automated compliance.

ICE serves as one of multiple high-quality data providers supporting Chainlink Data Streams. Already trusted by the world’s leading banks, market infrastructure providers, and the majority of DeFi, Chainlink is the industry-standard oracle platform powering the tokenization of the global economy. Watch Nasdaq CEO Adena Friedman discuss their announcement and what it means for the future of tokenized equities ↓
