ROAD TO Link:NYC 🇺🇸
At Link:NYC, Chairman of the @CFTC, @ChairmanSelig, will share his perspective on the future of digital assets and onchain finance.
Thank you, Chairman Selig, for advancing this critical conversation on the future U.S. financial markets.
Introducing Chainlink CustodySync, a new solution that lets qualified custodians give their institutional clients access to DeFi lending markets, all while assets remain securely in custody.
With @Anchorage as the official launch partner, together we’re establishing a new standard for institutional DeFi.
CustodySync keeps custody and lending systems in sync across the full lifecycle of a loan:
→ For custodians: faster time to market and lower operational overhead, with custodian-managed controls
→ For lending markets: independent, verifiable data and a consistent risk framework
→ For institutions: passive capital becomes productive capital
More than $80 billion sits in DeFi lending markets. Meanwhile, the roughly $700 billion in digital assets under custody is less than 0.5% of all $250 trillion in traditional assets under custody. The opportunity to connect traditional institutional capital to onchain finance remains vast.
Large institutions have lacked a secure way of accessing these markets. Regulations require many of them to keep their digital assets with a qualified custodian, a firm that meets specific requirements for holding assets on behalf of clients, and custody systems were never built for DeFi. Even when custody and lending systems are connected, inconsistent loan valuations can trigger premature liquidation or delayed liquidations, exposing borrowers and lenders to significant financial risk.
@Anchorage, home to the first federally chartered digital asset bank in the U.S., is the first qualified custodian to adopt CustodySync, connecting its institutional clients to DeFi lending markets while their assets remain in regulated custody.
Institutional capital no longer has to choose between the security of custody and the liquidity of DeFi.
With Chainlink, it gets both.

Following an extensive security review, @kamino found Chainlink CCIP provides the secure-by-default architecture required to underwrite cross-chain collateral risk.
Assets secured by CCIP qualify for higher borrowing limits & LTV ratios.
NEW: @OpenZeppelin, which S&P Global agreed to acquire, embeds Chainlink into its tooling standard used by the vast majority of the industry, including BlackRock, WisdomTree, Franklin Templeton, and more.
