At Sibos 2025, key leaders from Swift, DTCC, and Euroclear joined Sergey Nazarov to discuss Phase 2 of the global corporate actions initiative led by Chainlink. In the initiative, Chainlink brought together 24 industry-leading organizations ranging from major financial market infrastructures to banks and asset managers to demonstrate the success of creating Unified Golden Records that standardize and automate corporate actions data. Using the Chainlink platform for orchestration (CRE) and interoperability (CCIP), blockchains as auditable data records, and AI to transform unstructured inputs into structured information, the technical solution was able to produce near 100% data accuracy across all evaluated corporate actions. Confirmed reports were transformed into ISO 20022-compliant messages and transmitted to the Swift Network via CRE, while CCIP distributed reports across DTCC’s blockchain ecosystem and multiple other public and private blockchains. “This is the furthest we’ve ever been in trying to [solve corporate actions], and it’s thanks to the work that Chainlink has done in bringing together the leadership and using your data-savvy approaches to all of that.” — Nadine Chakar, Global Head of DTCC Digital Assets.

The 2008 financial crisis led to the creation of Bitcoin because toxic assets were created by a poorly managed financial system that left society with the costs. We have an opportunity to build a better financial system that is cryptographically guaranteed, transparent, and gives control of risk over to the parties that it affects most. Our work on Chainlink and CCIP seeks to accelerate the speed at which this world happens on-chain. From secure data delivery to decentralized compute and now cross-chain interoperability, Chainlink is protecting dApps and their end users to deliver the true value of smart contracts and DeFi: a fair, transparent and largely derisked global financial system. As CCIP becomes the most widely used connectivity standard, we will initially see two largely separate on-chain networks of value: one for institutional/bank chains and the existing public blockchain DeFi ecosystem. CCIP will eventually merge these two large ecosystems into a single on-chain financial system that secures the world’s value on the Internet of Contracts. Presentation: Slides:

Great infrastructure is what underpins the technological trends that consumers/users end up experiencing in their daily lives, it will be the same for Web3. Web2 applications like Uber are a great example of how infrastructure has shaped Web2. This breakthrough ridesharing application wouldn’t have initially been possible without the infrastructure provided by Twilio APIs to message users, Google Maps to see location data, and payments APIs to pay drivers. The same story is now unfolding for Web3 applications enabled to come into existence by Chainlink. When Chainlink launched, DeFi had less value than what one application in DeFi holds today. With access to secure and reliable price data via Chainlink, DeFi grew to over $200 billion in just a few years; There is a clear pattern between the launch of oracle networks and the growth of advanced applications on a blockchain: Developers can’t build truly “smart” contract applications without the oracle infrastructure that Chainlink provides. As the Chainlink platform has expanded, I’ve been excited by the sheer amount of advanced features that developers are now able to put into their smart contracts by using Chainlink. It’s clear to me that giving Web3 developers reliable and extensive infrastructure is the best way to unlock the next leap forward for our industry and for the creation of a cryptographic truth-powered society. API and cross-chain connectivity through oracle advancements such as Chainlink Functions and CCIP represent additional new building blocks for the next wave of Web3 apps. CCIP is also something we are actively working with the capital markets/banking industry on adopting for enabling their systems to efficiently interact with hundreds of blockchains via a single integration. When Chainlink enables all the world’s systems to efficiently connect to multiple chains through a single, cryptographically-secured interface is when we will all see a large acceleration in the value that flows into our industry and the widespread adoption which that leads to. Thank you to Jacquelyn Melinek for hosting me on TechCrunch’s Chain reaction podcast, where I explore these concepts in more depth:

“The industry is ready for tokenization.” At Sibos 2023, Chainlink Labs team members met with world-leading financial institutions. One insight from talking with industry leaders was that the financial system is ready for tokenization. Since the September event, there have already been a number of massive leaps forward: 1. HSBC launched a blockchain-based platform for tokenized gold. 2. SDX_global settled the first transaction of tokenized assets on a regulated and live DLT platform using a wholesale CBDC. 3. BlackRock CEO Larry Fink shared on CNBC that “ETFs are step one in the technological revolution in the financial markets. Step two is going to be the tokenization of every financial asset.” Not to mention, Chainlink is collaborating on tokenization use cases with Swift, DTCC, ANZ Bank, Vodafone, ARTA TechFin, and many others. In 2024, the adoption of tokenized assets is set to expand even further. #TheFutureIsOn

Was very excited about this thoughtful conversation with Jonathan Ehrenfeld, Head of Strategy at Swift. I think it clearly showcases the large benefits of Swift as a private key signing infrastructure, financial standards organization and network for routing key financial messages/information across the capital markets, among many other key services it already provides. It is clear to me that for our industry to go to the next stage, we need to make sure that blockchains become compatible with the existing financial system. Chainlink has a key role to play in making that happen, by simplifying the connectivity of those traditional data, payment and compliance systems into all blockchains, as well as the connectivity of those blockchains between each other. There will continue to be more and more critical data, identity, payment, compliance and other key systems to be integrated into and across blockchains securely, which I feel Chainlink is in a unique position to address in ways no other system can. You can hear my and Jon's views in the full podcast here:

The problem: Blockchains lack privacy by default. Their transparency enhances trust, but for institutions managing proprietary strategies and sensitive client information, it’s a major barrier to large-scale adoption. The solution: The Chainlink privacy standard enables private smart contracts at scale on any blockchain. How it works: Computations run in trusted execution environments (TEEs) to achieve privacy and high performance, while decentralized oracle networks and advanced cryptographic techniques provide enhanced security. This ensures sensitive data and business logic remain fully confidential while still having verifiability that all actions were executed exactly as intended. The result: Privacy is enabled. Trust is preserved. Scale is achieved. Just use Chainlink.

Virtuals Protocol is officially migrating to Chainlink CCIP. For agent infrastructure, 99% security is not enough. As part of hardening our infrastructure, we are upgrading our cross-chain stack from LayerZero to Chainlink CCIP. We have evaluated that CCIP strengthens the foundation behind Virtuals with the highest level of cross-chain security as we build the trusted economic layer for agents. This enables the most secure agent infrastructure stack to enable agents to manage inference, cards, email, payments, services, commerce, and onchain value.

Anyone who tells you that blockchains “eliminate the need for Swift” has no idea what they’re talking about Swift is not a payment network, it’s an interbank messaging network Their SwiftNet private key infrastructure and banking messaging standards like ISO20022 are used by 11,000+ banks globally to facilitate the communication of payment instructions between banks Imagine taking 11,000 banks, who already have private keys and standardized formats for messaging, and connecting them to blockchains in a way they can re-use all of this existing infrastructure and messaging standards That’s exactly what Swift and Chainlink have been working on for years Last year, Swift published a report on how Chainlink CCIP can successfully connect Swift-member banks to any public/private blockchain using their existing infrastructure and messaging standards (12+ of the largest global financial institutions and FMIs were involved): Just yesterday, Swift published an article on how they’re moving forward on real-world solutions that will enable Swift members banks to access/transact with tokenized assets / currencies on the Swift network They note this builds upon their prior work, which they’re now advancing to the next stage (they explicitly link to their work with Chainlink): Swift isn’t going away, and their involvement in the blockchain ecosystem will massively accelerate the adoption of tokenized assets / currencies / stablecoins within the financial system Attached clip of Sergey Nazarov explaining this at Consensus 2024 on stage with Swift’s Jack Pouderoyen (Digital Assets & Currencies at Swift) I wonder how much longer this misconception about blockchain “killing” Swift will continue to persist in our industry I recommend paying attention to Sibos 2024

The White House Digital Asset Summit was an inflection point for the blockchain industry. It is a key step toward accomplishing President Donald J. Trump’s objective of the U.S. becoming the “crypto capital of the world,” which will drive major innovation in the blockchain industry not only in the U.S. but on a global scale. Sergey Nazarov shared his takeaways from the event: • The cryptocurrency and stablecoin markets have reached a sufficient size where they cannot be ignored by governments. For example, stablecoins consist of 2-5% of the U.S. treasuries market by utilizing them as reserves. • The main courses of action in supporting these markets include Bitcoin and digital asset stockpiles; regulations that enable DeFi, Fintech, and TradFi to participate in onchain markets; and making the U.S. the leader in digital asset infrastructure and the number one place where digital assets are created. • For the U.S. to be a leader in crypto, it needs to be the place where base (original) assets are generated, which are then repackaged and sold around the world. Doing so requires creating highly reliable assets that are accessible across all blockchains and embedded with automated compliance. • Chainlink uniquely supports these objectives by allowing various information about assets to be proven (e.g., Proof of Reserve), thereby making them highly reliable. Furthermore, Chainlink can connect tokenized assets to all blockchains via the CCIP standard as well as connect assets and smart contracts to various data points such as identity to automate compliance. The Chainlink standard is ready to make blockchains, smart contracts, and oracle networks the infrastructure powering the global financial system.

For example, stablecoins consist of 2-5% of the U.S. treasuries market by utilizing them as reserves. • The main courses of action in supporting these markets include Bitcoin and digital asset stockpiles; regulations that enable DeFi, Fintech, and TradFi to participate in onchain markets; and making the U.S. the leader in digital asset infrastructure and the number one place where digital assets are created. • For the U.S. to be a leader in crypto, it needs to be the place where base (original) assets are generated, which are then repackaged and sold around the world. Doing so requires creating highly reliable assets that are accessible across all blockchains and embedded with automated compliance. • Chainlink uniquely supports these objectives by allowing various information about assets to be proven (e.g., Proof of Reserve), thereby making them highly reliable. Furthermore, Chainlink can connect tokenized assets to all blockchains via the CCIP standard as well as connect assets and smart contracts to various data points such as identity to automate compliance. The Chainlink standard is ready to make blockchains, smart contracts, and oracle networks the infrastructure powering the global financial system.

“We’re shifting to production deployments.” Having worked with well over 40 institutions globally at Chainlink Labs, Niki Ariyasinghe shares his insights on the rapidly evolving landscape for tokenized assets: 1. Leading banks are preparing for the tokenization opportunity Following successful pilots on testnets, premier financial institutions are launching production deployments live on mainnet. This provides a blockchain-based foundation to support trillions of dollars worth of tokenized assets. 2. Real volume is already moving onto these platforms Broadridge’s blockchain-based repo platform already has “over $70B of transaction value that goes through that platform every day.” This level of transaction volume for RWAs will expand and replicate across an array of verticals. Unlocking the full capabilities of these tokenized assets requires a single platform that securely provides all data, compute, and cross-chain requirements: #Chainlink.
