The FX and precious metals feeds of the ICE Consolidated Feed will be available via the Chainlink Data Streams data set.
The Intercontinental Exchange (ICE), owner of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), is collaborating with blockchain solutions provider Chainlink to incorporate foreign exchange (FX) and precious metals rates from the ICE Consolidated Feed into the Chainlink Data Streams data set, according to officials.
The ICE Consolidated Feed offers “content from over 300 global exchanges and marketplaces” that is used by banks, asset managers, and independent software vendors (ISVs), says Maurisa Baumann, vice president for Global Data Delivery Platforms at ICE, in a prepared statement.
The Chainlink Data Streams service supports 2,000+ applications and supplies data to banks, asset managers, and the infrastructure of the Chainlink ecosystem, officials say. Chainlink’s offerings connect blockchains to real-world data, other blockchains, governments, and enterprise systems.
“This new development marks a significant milestone on the pathway towards the mainstream adoption of onchain finance,” according to the announcement. ICE’s data feed can support “new types of tokenized assets and products,” and supply DeFi applications “with access to tamper-resistant data,” officials say.
“This collaboration signals a pivotal shift towards a unified, globally accessible onchain financial system, with hundreds of trillions in assets on a clear path to tokenization,” says Fernando Vazquez, president, capital markets at Chainlink Labs, in a statement.
ICE has futures, equity, and options exchanges and clearinghouses to help the securities industry invest, raise capital, and manage risk. ICE also offers platforms and execution support for fixed income markets.
