Chainlink, a decentralized oracle network, today announced its strategic collaboration with Ondo Finance, a DeFi protocol. This partnership is based on Ondo Finance’s newly launched market product – Ondo Global Markets —an offering that provides access to more than 100 tokenized U.S. stocks and ETFs to non-U.S. investors.
With the integration of Chainlink’s Proof of Reserve technology, Ondo Finance now has access to high-quality, tamper-resistant price feeds required to operate reliable, secure, and efficient tokenized products. This will provide its customers with greater affirmation that diversified, automated, and decentralized portfolios associated with the above RWA products can offer stable passive returns.
Chainlink PoR Supports Transparency of Ondo Global Markets
Based on this partnership, Ondo Finance integrated Chainlink’s PoR (proof-of-reserve) system to enable more transparency for its newly unveiled Ondo Global Markets. By integrating Chainlink’s proof-of-reserve infrastructure, Ondo seeks to develop stronger trust in its freshly introduced tokenized US stocks and ETFs. The PoR system provides real-time reserve data and historical information, available as publicly verifiable feeds that draw data from hundreds of on-chain exchanges.
Ondo selected Chainlink as its decentralized computing network because of Chainlink’s demonstrated success in enabling over $12 trillion in transaction value and offering multiple services crucial for building and safeguarding tokenized assets across the multi-chain economy. By incorporating Chainlink’s PoR, Ondo wants to run transparent visibility into the asset reserves backing its tokenized US stocks and ETFs, targeting non-US investors. This transparency will not only help enhance investor confidence but also improve the adoption of these RWA products. The PoR system offers real-time transparency that allows users to authenticate asset collateralization privately. It also eliminates SPOFs (single points of failure) by running a distributed network that ensures reliable and steady on-chain updates for products’ collateralization.
The integration of the two firms comes a few hours today after Ondo launched its Ondo Global Markets, which went live trading on September 3, 2025.
Understanding the Role of Ondo Global Markets
Ondo Finance today announced the rollout of its highly awaited Ondo Global Markets, a product that allows non-U.S. investors to efficiently access more than 100 tokenized U.S. stocks and ETFs on the Ethereum blockchain.
Ondo Global Markets, which is accessible for qualified Latin America, APAC (Asia-Pacific), and African investors, is recognized as one of the biggest avenues that gives people exposure to U.S. markets. The product, which currently operates on Ethereum, plans to expand its presence in the BNB chain, Solana, and others to widen the financial accessibility of these tokenized U.S. stocks and ETFs. Non-U.S. institutional and individual customers across the globe can now seamlessly mint tokenized US stocks and ETFs, which are directly accessible at approved traditional exchanges.
