Chainlink has expanded the operational hours for its U.S. equity price feeds. The crypto oracle delivers live stock and ETF pricing across more than 40 chains, with updates streaming 24 hours per day, 5 days per week.
What's the Scoop?
- Needed Feature: Blockchains may operate on a continuous basis, but global stock markets trade across fragmented sessions during dedicated market hours. According to Chainlink, "24/5 U.S. Equity Streams" are designed to bring reliable pricing, safer liquidations, stronger risk management, and consistent user experiences beyond standard trading hours to onchain markets.
- Live Integrations: Top perpetual exchanges, including as Lighter (the 2nd largest perp dex by volume) and BitMEX (the inventor of crypto perps), already leverage Chainlink price stream solutions. Longer streaming hours provides for expanding trading access in RWA futures markets.
JUST SHIPPED: Chainlink 24/5 U.S. Equities Streams brings the ~$80T U.S. equities market onchain.
