The new Data Streams product delivers low-latency pricing for major US stocks and ETFs. Supported assets include SPY, QQQ, NVDA, AAPL, and MSFT. Chainlink said it aggregates data from multiple sources to provide fast and accurate updates.
Data Streams use decentralized oracle networks to process and deliver structured market information. Each data point is timestamped to ensure clarity and accuracy. The system detects stale prices and can suspend trading during market closures.
Developers Gain New Tools for Tokenized Finance
The real-time data enables developers to build tokenized financial instruments. These include synthetic ETFs, perpetual futures, and lending platforms tied to equities. Chainlink said the structure helps prevent pricing errors and protects users from unfair liquidations.
Data Streams include market indicators such as trading status and circuit breaker readiness. These tools support protocols during stock halts or exchange outages. The system also includes data freshness checks and contextual metadata.
Top DeFi Protocols Start Adopting Data Streams
Projects like Kamino Finance, GMX, and GMX-Solana have started using Chainlink’s Data Streams. The integrations aim to enhance tokenized asset trading and improve on-chain financial reliability.
Developers can also combine multiple streams to create custom indexes. Chainlink plans to extend this capability to other markets. Future upgrades will cover new asset classes such as forex, commodities, and OTC products.
Chainlink Seeks to Bridge Traditional and Blockchain Markets
The tokenized real-world asset market is expanding rapidly. Chainlink sees growing demand for secure and scalable pricing infrastructure. The firm said the new system addresses gaps between traditional finance and blockchain products.
Data Streams help ensure market logic, pricing structure, and fair trade execution. They use data from providers like Finalto, Tiingo, and Finnhub. The decentralized network helps avoid single-point failure risks.
Chainlink will also release more developer tools and SDK updates. These upgrades will support broader adoption and integration across blockchain ecosystems. The firm said its focus remains on scaling secure, composable, and real-time financial applications.
Chainlink believes Data Streams arrive as tokenized assets approach broader institutional adoption. The infrastructure aims to bring equity and ETF trading closer to global capital markets.
