Chainlink Expands On-Chain Data Access with Real-Time U.S. Equities Feeds

Chainlink has launched Data Streams for U.S. equities and ETFs, delivering institutional-grade price data across 37 blockchain networks. The feeds cover high-liquidity assets like SPY, QQQ, AAPL, and NVDA, enabling sub-second updates for DeFi and tokenized RWA applications.

Leading protocols including GMX and Kamino have already integrated the solution, which sources data from institutional providers like Finalto and Finnhub. The system includes critical features such as market hours detection and circuit breaker alerts—addressing key reliability concerns for on-chain trading.

This development marks a significant leap toward mature financial infrastructure in Web3, bridging traditional markets with decentralized applications through Chainlink's oracle network.
