FTSE Russell taps Chainlink to bring Russell 1000 and other index data onchain
Summary
Chainlink, a leading crypto oracle provider, has partnered with FTSE Russell to bring its market data and indices, such as the Russell 1000, Russell 2000, and Russell 3000, onto the blockchain. FTSE Russell will utilize Chainlink's institutional-grade data publishing service, DataLink, to make this data accessible 24/7 across multiple blockchains. FTSE Russell CEO Fiona Bassett stated this move is crucial for enabling innovation around tokenized assets and next-generation financial products, ensuring developers have access to the same high-quality data that powers traditional finance. DataLink is already used by thousands of decentralized applications and has integrated with other major data providers like Deutsche Börse and S&P Global.
