Band Protocol’s real-world asset feeds are now live on the Stellar mainnet, and for anyone watching the tokenized-finance space, it’s a practical step forward. The new Band RWA Feeds supply verifiable pricing for Centrifuge’s deRWA products, namely deJTRSY (tokenized U.S. Treasuries) and deJAAA (tokenized CLOs), so those assets can be priced and settled onchain with less guesswork and more transparency.
This rollout is the result of a relationship that’s been quietly growing for a while. Band has been integrated with Stellar since May 2023, feeding trusted, onchain data to applications that need it, while Stellar itself has been focused on fast, low-cost payments and settlement since 2014. Centrifuge brings the tokenization layer, and now, with Band supplying the price feeds, those tokenized instruments get a dependable source of truth for valuations and transactions.
How it works isn’t magic; it’s an end-to-end pipeline that keeps things auditable. BandChain asks for the latest prices for products like deJTRSY and deJAAA, its validators pull data from multiple trusted off-chain sources and aggregate it to reduce the risk of manipulation, and then the verified price is written into Band’s Standard Reference Contracts on Stellar. Centrifuge reads those same onchain reference points, so every valuation and settlement uses the same trusted numbers. Every update is recorded onchain, which makes the whole process transparent and easy to audit.
For institutions and individual users, the idea is simple: get exposure to regulated yield products through DeFi flows without having to trust a single counterparty for price data. For builders, it means there’s now a plug-and-play data layer available on Stellar they can use to power vaults, stablecoins, or any app that needs reliable RWA pricing.
The timing matters. Interest from institutions in tokenized RWAs is picking up, and as more large players look at tokenization, the demand for real-time, trustworthy pricing grows too. Stellar provides the settlement rails and a low-fee environment many institutions prefer; Band supplies the decentralized, tamper-resistant data those assets need to behave like real financial instruments onchain. Put together, they make it easier for assets issued through Centrifuge to operate with the reliability required for production use.
This launch is also a reminder that the pieces of tokenized finance are coming together: infrastructure layers for payments and settlement, oracle networks guaranteeing data integrity, and tokenization platforms converting offchain assets into tradable digital tokens. That interplay will determine how quickly and how safely institutional adoption moves forward.
If you build on Stellar or are working with tokenized assets, Band’s RWA feeds are now something you can integrate directly via the Standard Reference Contracts. Band presents itself as more than an oracle; the team positions the network as a data layer that can feed DeFi, GameFi, and AI systems with real-time information and minimal counterparty risk. The feeds are live now on Stellar, and Centrifuge-issued deRWA products will use this pipeline for pricing. If you want to explore integration or learn more, Band’s contact page has the details.



Wormhole’s native token has had a tough time since launch, debuting at $1.66 before dropping significantly despite the general crypto market’s bull cycle. Wormhole, an interoperability protocol facilitating asset transfers between blockchains, announced updated tokenomics to its native Wormhole (W) token, including a token reserve and more yield for stakers. The changes could affect the protocol’s governance, as staked Wormhole tokens allocate voting power to delegates.According to a Wednesday announcement, three main changes are coming to the Wormhole token: a W reserve funded with protocol fees and revenue, a 4% base yield for staking with higher rewards for active ecosystem participants, and a change from bulk unlocks to biweekly unlocks.“The goal of Wormhole Contributors is to significantly expand the asset transfer and messaging volume that Wormhole facilitates over the next 1-2 years,” the protocol said. According to Wormhole, more tokens will be locked as adoption takes place and revenue filters back to the company.Read more
