  1. Ondo Finance and Chainlink form a major alliance to bring global financial institutions on-chain.
  2. Chainlink becomes the official oracle provider for Ondo’s $350 million tokenized assets.
  3. The partnership sets a new benchmark for on-chain finance and institutional adoption.

Ondo Finance and Chainlink have announced a strategic partnership to bridge traditional finance and blockchain technology. The two firms aim to help global financial institutions transition their assets and operations on-chain, marking a significant milestone in the evolution of digital finance.

Ondo has developed one of the most extensive institutional ecosystems in the tokenization sector, connecting over 100 major financial organizations, protocols, and applications.

By joining forces with Chainlink, the leading oracle platform, Ondo intends to leverage the CCIP as the preferred system for cross-chain transactions across traditional financial institutions.

This partnership follows their earlier collaborations with top market players, including integration with Kinexys by J.P. Morgan, which explored cross-chain settlement for tokenized assets.

Ondo is also now participating in Chainlink’s corporate actions initiative, alongside 24 global institutions such as Swift, DTCC, and Euroclear, a move expected to further strengthen its foothold in institutional-grade tokenization.

Chainlink Becomes the Oracle Backbone

Ondo Global Markets, the biggest tokenized stocks/ETFs platform, has already accumulated more than $350 million in total value locked and $700 million in total trading volume.

Now, with the new alliance, Chainlink becomes the official provider of oracles to Ondo, which helps in facilitating real-time prices in addition to transparency on all blockchains supported by Ondo.

The institutional-grade data feeds offered by Chainlink would offer custom pricing for every tokenized asset, including equities and ETFs. This takes into consideration economic events such as dividends and corporate actions and provides on-chain valuation for them.

Such an approach provides assurance to the tokens issued on Ondo to remain authentic and trustworthy to serve well in acting as collateral in DeFi markets.

The inclusion of Chainlink technology is an improvement in Ondo’s structural set-up because it makes it possible for tokenized assets to behave in the same manner as regular assets while being auditable on blockchains.

Building the Next Generation of Capital Markets

The coming together of Ondo and Chainlink marks the beginning of a new era in institutional DeFi. With assets on 10 different blockchains and ties with more than 100 apps, Ondo is clearly gearing to be one of the biggest players in connecting real-world assets to the DeFi space.

Chainlink co-founder Sergey Nazarov further clarified that the process of asset tokenization is driving major shifts in the way in which global markets function. While Ondo founder Nathan Allman added that this brings the world of finance one step closer to programmable on-chain capital markets.

Together, they are establishing the basis for the trillion-dollar tokenized economy that has transparency, connectivity, and institutional trust redefining the global finance space.

Aave DAO to Shut Down 50% of L2s While Doubling Down on GHO

The post Aave DAO to Shut Down 50% of L2s While Doubling Down on GHO appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Aave DAO is gearing up for a significant overhaul by shutting down over 50% of underperforming L2 instances. It is also restructuring its governance framework and deploying over $100 million to boost GHO. This could be a pivotal moment that propels Aave back to the forefront of on-chain lending or sparks unprecedented controversy within the DeFi community. Sponsored Sponsored ACI Proposes Shutting Down 50% of L2s The “State of the Union” report by the Aave Chan Initiative (ACI) paints a candid picture. After a turbulent period in the DeFi market and internal challenges, Aave (AAVE) now leads in key metrics: TVL, revenue, market share, and borrowing volume. Aave’s annual revenue of $130 million surpasses the combined cash reserves of its competitors. Tokenomics improvements and the AAVE token buyback program have also contributed to the ecosystem’s growth. Aave global metrics. Source: Aave However, the ACI’s report also highlights several pain points. First, regarding the Layer-2 (L2) strategy. While Aave’s L2 strategy was once a key driver of success, it is no longer fit for purpose. Over half of Aave’s instances on L2s and alt-L1s are not economically viable. Based on year-to-date data, over 86.6% of Aave’s revenue comes from the mainnet, indicating that everything else is a side quest. On this basis, ACI proposes closing underperforming networks. The DAO should invest in key networks with significant differentiators. Second, ACI is pushing for a complete overhaul of the “friendly fork” framework, as most have been unimpressive regarding TVL and revenue. In some cases, attackers have exploited them to Aave’s detriment, as seen with Spark.

Third, the instance model, once a smart…

Shytoshi Kusama Addresses $2.4 Million Shibarium Bridge Exploit

Shytoshi Kusama Addresses $2.4 Million Shibarium Bridge Exploit

The post Shytoshi Kusama Addresses $2.4 Million Shibarium Bridge Exploit appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The lead developer of Shiba Inu, Shytoshi Kusama, has publicly addressed the Shibarium bridge exploit that occurred recently, draining $2.4 million from the network. After days of speculation about his involvement in managing the crisis, the project leader broke his silence. Kusama emphasized that a special “war room” has been set up to restore stolen finances and enhance network security. The statement is his first official words since the bridge compromise occurred. “Although I am focusing on AI initiatives to benefit all our tokens, I remain with the developers and leadership in the war room,” Kusama posted on social media platform X. He dismissed claims that he had distanced himself from the project as “utterly preposterous.” The developer said that the reason behind his silence at first was strategic. Before he could make any statements publicly, he must have taken time to evaluate what he termed a complex and deep situation properly. Kusama also vowed to provide further updates in the official Shiba Inu channels as the team comes up with long-term solutions. As highlighted in our previous article, targeted Shibarium’s bridge infrastructure through a sophisticated attack vector. Hackers gained unauthorized access to validator signing keys, compromising the network’s security framework. The hackers executed a flash loan to acquire 4.6 million BONE ShibaSwap tokens. The validator power on the network was majority held by them after this purchase. They were able to transfer assets out of Shibarium with this control. The response of Shibarium developers was timely to limit the breach. They instantly halted all validator functions in order to avoid additional exploitation. The team proceeded to deposit the assets under staking in a multisig hardware wallet that is secure. External security companies were involved in the investigation effort. Hexens, Seal 911, and PeckShield are collaborating with internal developers to…
