As the digital asset space grows, access to secure onchain data, including market prices, reference data, AML/KYC data, and proof of reserves is becoming more important. Moreover, digital assets need to be interoperable across public and private chains, as well as existing financial systems, to provide access to secondary markets and unified liquidity. By natively integrating the Chainlink standard, Coinbase's Project Diamond platform can now offer data and cross-chain connectivity in a secure way that helps meet the compliance needs of institutional adopters.
Chainlink's Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP) is enabling new assets on Coinbase's Project Diamond platform to become interoperable with public or private blockchains. Chainlink Functions enriches these assets with high-quality, real-world data, no matter which chain they move across via CCIP. With Chainlink natively integrated into the Project Diamond platform, asset issuers and fund managers have a secure and compliant solution to quickly scale their tokenized assets across public and private blockchains through verifiable data connectivity. The integration of the Chainlink standard will also enhance the existing Coinbase Project Diamond implementation for Abu Dhabi Global Market's (ADGM) RegLab.
"Chainlink is essential infrastructure that enables asset issuers, banks, and financial institutions to create tokenized asset solutions that are compliant, secured by verifiable data, and interoperable across any public or private blockchain," stated Marcel Kasumovich, Deputy Chief Investment Officer at Coinbase Asset Management. "By integrating the Chainlink standard natively into the Project Diamond platform, powered by Coinbase's tech stack on Base, we're paving the way for widespread institutional adoption of digital assets."
"Coinbase's adoption of the Chainlink standard for the Project Diamond platform underscores the critical importance of solving the end-to-end lifecycle management of tokenized assets," stated Johann Eid, Chief Business Officer at Chainlink Labs. "This strategic integration helps asset issuers, banks, and financial institutions natively leverage Chainlink for verifiable data and secure cross-chain interoperability to solve critical tokenized asset requirements and increase the institutional adoption of digital assets in a scalable and compliant manner."
"As a flagship user, Peregrine, PSG Digital's regulated business in the ADGM is excited to bring institutional-grade, real-world assets to Coinbase's Project Diamond platform," said Dennis O'Connell, Chief Technology Officer at Peregrine Digital. "As the standard for onchain finance, Chainlink unifies liquidity, enhances composability, and provides greater transparency around the collateral underlying tokenized assets, creating a more attractive debt product for institutional investors by delivering substantial savings in both time and cost for all participants."
