MILESTONE | A ‘Big Three’ Agency Brings Credit Ratings On-Chain on a Major Public Blockchain

Moody’s Ratings has expanded its blockchain strategy by making its credit ratings available on the Solana network, a move aimed at bringing traditional fixed-income analysis directly into tokenized financial assets as Wall Street accelerates its push into digital securities.

The credit ratings agency said it has integrated its Token Integration Engine (TIE) with Solana through tokenization infrastructure provider, AlphaLedger, allowing issuers of tokenized bonds and other fixed-income products to embed Moody’s credit ratings directly into on-chain assets.

The expansion marks Moody’s first deployment on a major public blockchain after launching TIE in early 2026 on the institution-focused Canton Network. The platform is designed to make Moody’s ratings machine-readable allowing investors, trading platforms, and smart contracts to access credit information without relying on separate databases or documents.

Tokenized real-world assets have become one of the fastest-growing areas of digital finance as banks, asset managers, and financial infrastructure firms seek to move traditional securities on-chain to improve settlement efficiency and reduce operational costs.

The integration addresses one of the sector’s longstanding challenges:

Connecting trusted off-chain credit assessments with on-chain financial instruments.

By embedding ratings directly into tokenized assets, issuers can provide investors with standardized credit information that travels alongside the security throughout its lifecycle.

Alphaledger, which focuses on tokenizing municipal bonds and other fixed-income products, will use the technology to enable issuers on Solana to incorporate Moody’s ratings into newly issued digital securities.

The rollout comes as traditional financial institutions increasingly embrace blockchain infrastructure for tokenized bonds, money market funds, and other real-world assets with analysts viewing standardized risk data as a critical component for broader institutional adoption.
