Exploring the Full-Chain Network for Real-World Assets (RWA)
Ondo Finance is bridging the gap between traditional finance's stringent regulations and blockchain's decentralized innovation with its institutional-grade RWA public chain—Ondo Chain. Positioned as a hybrid solution, it facilitates collaboration between traditional institutions and the crypto world, advancing asset tokenization.
Ondo Global Markets: The Infrastructure for On-Chain Finance
Ondo Chain integrates seamlessly with Ondo Finance’s tokenized ecosystem, anchored by Ondo Global Markets (Ondo GM). This platform converts traditional assets (stocks, bonds, ETFs) into 1:1 tokenized versions, synchronizing real-world market movements (like NYSE fluctuations) on-chain.
Key advantages include:
- Liquidity Innovation: Tokenized assets (e.g., Apple stock) can collateralize DeFi loans or fund Treasury yield pools.
- Borderless Markets: Enable 24/7/365 trading, unlocking efficiency and flexibility for legacy assets.

Ondo Chain’s Architecture: Balancing Compliance and Openness
Ondo Chain tackles a critical challenge: How to merge institutional compliance with blockchain’s openness? Its dual-layered design:
Permissioned Validator Network:
- Validators (e.g., Franklin Templeton, Wellington Management) ensure regulatory adherence and mitigate risks like MEV attacks.
- Enhances transaction fairness and transparency via strict oversight.
Open Ecosystem Layer:
- Developers deploy dApps and assets freely within a compliant framework.
- Features Ondo Bridge for cross-chain interoperability, secured by Decentralized Verification Networks (DVN) to prevent exploits.
Three Core Innovations Powering Ondo Chain
Native RWA Integration:
- Optimized for tokenized assets (e.g., staking Ondo GM securities for yield redistribution).
On-Chain Compliance & Data Oracles:
- Real-time price/rate feeds maintained by permissioned nodes to deter manipulation.
Cross-Chain Security:
- DVN-protected transfers ensure safe large-scale asset flows across blockchains.

Transforming Global Finance: Structural Impacts
- Institutions: Reduced latency levels the playing field against high-frequency traders.
- Developers: Compliance-automated tools (KYC, collateral management) lower entry barriers.
- Investors: 24/7 access to tokenized stocks, bonds, and ETFs democratizes global investing.
"We’re not disrupting finance—we’re giving it a blockchain engine."
