S&P Digital Markets 50 Onchain Index Launches with Chainlink
Dinari, Chainlink and S&P Dow Jones Indices will launch the S&P Digital Markets 50 Onchain Index on Avalanche in Q4 2025. The S&P Digital Markets 50 Onchain Index is a tokenized benchmark combining 35 US-listed equities with 15 major digital assets. Chainlink oracles will supply real-time price feeds, Proof of Reserve, NAVLink and SmartAUM services to ensure data integrity. Dinari’s dShares product will tokenize each security one-to-one, backed by regulated custodians and settled onchain.
This tokenized index bridges traditional finance and DeFi. It offers institutional-grade transparency, programmable finance and reduced settlement times. The new index opens global access and enhanced compliance for traders seeking diversified onchain exposure to equities and crypto.
Bullish
The launch of the S&P Digital Markets 50 Onchain Index is bullish for blockchain networks and oracle services. In the short term, onboarding institutional investors via a regulated, tokenized index increases demand for Avalanche’s network capacity and Chainlink’s oracle feeds, driving transaction volume and fees. Over the long term, the index demonstrates institutional trust in onchain settlement and data integrity, which could lead to sustained usage of Avalanche (AVAX) and Chainlink (LINK) tokens for collateral, governance and fee payments. Historical precedents show that tokenized financial products boost native token demand, suggesting positive price pressure for both projects.
