TL;DR

- The index will include 35 public companies and 15 cryptocurrencies, offering instant diversification as well as greater efficiency and transparency in financial markets.
Chainlink and Dinari announced a collaboration to bring the S&P Digital Markets 50 Index on-chain, creating a tokenized product that combines stocks of blockchain companies with leading cryptocurrencies.
The initiative aims to foster the integration of traditional markets with the cryptocurrency sector, giving investors exposure to diverse assets and both markets through a single digital asset.
Dinari will handle tokenization via its dShares platform, while Chainlink’s decentralized oracle network will deliver verified, real-time pricing and performance data. This infrastructure layer ensures that on-chain information is reliable and tamper-proof, a key requirement for financial institutions to adopt tokenized products with confidence.
Chainlink: Key Data Infrastructure for Institutions
The S&P Digital Markets 50 Index consists of 35 U.S.-listed companies focused on blockchain and digital asset innovation, along with 15 leading cryptocurrencies. The index was co-developed by Dinari and S&P Dow Jones Indices (S&P DJI), ensuring the methodology reflects the performance of both traditional companies and digital assets. Its launch is scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2025.
The project aims to expand access to financial markets, improve settlement efficiency, and increase transparency for both institutional and retail investors. By combining stocks and cryptocurrencies in a single tokenized asset, the index enables instant diversification and facilitates risk management within a hybrid financial ecosystem.
Additionally, Chainlink collaborated with S&P Global Ratings to bring stablecoin risk assessments on-chain, and shortly after, FTSE Russell launched a pilot to tokenize traditional market indices using the same oracle network. These initiatives establish Chainlink as a key data infrastructure for tokenized financial products, connecting real-world markets with blockchain liquidity.
