According to Odaily, Fireblocks and Chainlink Labs have announced a strategic partnership aimed at providing secure and compliant technological solutions for banks and financial institutions to issue and trade stablecoins in global financial markets. This collaboration will enable issuing institutions to have comprehensive and real-time cross-chain visibility of stablecoins, reserves, market value, and total supply.
Angie Walker, Head of Global Banking and Capital Markets at Chainlink Labs, stated that the combination of Chainlink and Fireblocks offers a robust set of technical services that could accelerate the market growth of various tokenized currencies, including stablecoins. Walker emphasized that this partnership is expected to provide stablecoin users with real-time visibility into asset reserves and enhance the utility of stablecoins as secure payment tools and institutional trading instruments in the digital asset market. The goal is to empower stablecoin issuers by providing secure, intelligent, and scalable solutions that meet the high standards of institutional and retail clients.
Stephen Richardson, Managing Director of Financial Markets at Fireblocks, highlighted that as regulatory frameworks around tokenized currencies continue to evolve, the potential for institutional use of regulated stablecoins is expanding.
