Under the agreement, 21X's on-chain trading, matching, and settlement systems will utilize Chainlink's standards to provide "high-quality" data for tokenized assets and "facilitate cross-chain interoperability." 21X and Chainlink will jointly provide on-chain secondary market buy and sell price data for the first EU-regulated Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) trading and settlement system, which will be launched under the supervision of the Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (BaFin) in Germany. Chainlink's Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP) will become a core part of 21X's cross-chain strategy, enabling 21X members to "access assets and stablecoins issued on various blockchain protocols."
