Fireblocks And Chainlink Launch Tokenization Capabilities For Stablecoin Issuers

Fireblocks and Chainlink Labs have joined forces to offer a secure and compliant technology solution for banks and financial institutions to issue and transact with stablecoins across global financial markets.

The announcement follows the COPW stablecoin launch by Wenia earlier this year, which was powered by both Fireblocks and Chainlink services.

Fireblocks provides a platform to create new blockchain-based products, and manage day-to-day digital asset operations, serving exchanges, banks, PSPs, lending desks, custodians, trading desks, and hedge funds who leverage the firm’s Fireblocks Network and MPC-based Wallet Infrastructure.

Chainlink Labs is the primary contributing developer of Chainlink, the leading technology infrastructure for onchain data, cross-chain interoperability, and blockchain abstraction. Chainlink enables financial institutions to develop customized, compliant, and future-proof blockchain applications and tokenized assets.

End-to-end tokenization capabilities for stablecoin issuers

The team-up between Fireblocks and Chainlink has resulted in newly-packaged technology solution plans that support end-to-end tokenization capabilities for stablecoin issuers. The integrated offering provides issuing agents with access to a single, comprehensive, real-time view of stablecoins, reserves, market value, and total supply, including across different blockchains.

The technology package covers:

  • Issuance: securely mint, custody, distribute, and manage tokenized assets—including stablecoins—via a tokenization engine.
  • Data synchronization: verify stablecoin collateral onchain with proof of reserves for enhanced transparency and to help guarantee the value of stablecoins in circulation.
  • Data connectivity and enrichment: real-time, market-wide price tracking for assets represented onchain, powered by hyper-secure oracle infrastructure.
  • Compliance: a customizable suite of KYT/AML and Travel Rule Compliance components for customers navigating the regulatory complexities of stablecoin use cases such as cross-border transactions.
  • Custody: securely custody and manage digital assets through Direct Custody Wallets-as-a-Service, which provides battle-tested multi-party computation (MPC) warm and cold wallets, governance policies, and robust APIs, with support for over 80 blockchains.
  • Interoperability: transfer data and value across public or private blockchains with industry-standard cross-chain infrastructure.
  • Liquidity and distribution: direct connectivity to, and distribution in, the crypto capital markets via the industry’s largest digital asset network with over 2,000 institutional counterparties.

“From reserves to issuance, distribution, custody, and compliance”

Angie Walker, Global Head of Banking and Capital Markets at Chainlink Labs, said: “Chainlink and Fireblocks offer a powerful suite of technology services that, when combined, are poised to accelerate market growth for all forms of tokenized money, such as stablecoins. We expect this will not only provide stablecoin users with real-time visibility into asset reserves but also elevate the utility of the stablecoin as a secure payment vehicle and institutional trading instrument in digital asset markets. We plan to empower stablecoin issuers by offering a secure, smart, and scalable solution that meets the high standards for institutional and retail customers alike.”

Stephen Richardson, Managing Director, Financial Markets at Fireblocks, commented: “As regulatory frameworks around tokenized money continue to evolve, the potential for regulated stablecoin usage at the institutional level is expanding. Stablecoins are driving innovation in financial markets, and issuers need a comprehensive solution—from reserves to issuance, distribution, custody, and compliance—that offers full visibility, including across multiple chains. By working with Chainlink, we are uniquely positioned to meet these critical market needs for large-scale stablecoin adoption.”

Pablo Arboleda, CEO of Wenia, a Bancolombia Group Company, stated: “It is great to see Fireblocks and Chainlink, two of our COPW launch partners, collaborate to further enhance the usability of regulated stablecoins. By combining top-tier technology solutions with secure and reliable infrastructure, they are creating a win-win for the industry and advancing the adoption of digital assets in a more inclusive, efficient, and accessible manner.”
