Chainlink and Dinari Partner to Tokenize the S&P Digital Markets 50 Index
In a move that blurs the line between traditional finance and blockchain innovation, Chainlink and Dinari have teamed up to bring the S&P Digital Markets 50 Index on-chain, a first-of-its-kind benchmark that merges equities and cryptocurrencies into a single tokenized product.
A Bridge Between Stocks and Crypto
Under the new collaboration, Dinari will tokenize the index through its dShares platform, while Chainlink’s decentralized oracle network will deliver verified, real-time pricing and performance data.
The S&P Digital Markets 50 Index tracks 35 publicly listed U.S. companies tied to blockchain and digital asset innovation, alongside 15 leading cryptocurrencies. Its launch is scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2025, marking one of the clearest steps yet toward integrating legacy finance and tokenized markets.
The index itself was co-developed by Dinari and S&P Dow Jones Indices (S&P DJI), with Chainlink’s oracles acting as the critical infrastructure layer that ensures transparent and tamper-proof price feeds on the blockchain.
Why It Matters
By combining the top-performing public companies in blockchain technology with major digital assets, the tokenized index allows investors to gain diversified exposure to both sectors through a single digital asset.
According to project representatives, the initiative aims to expand access, improve efficiency, and enhance transparency for institutional and retail participants alike.

Chainlink’s role will be to verify all on-chain data in real time, ensuring that every update to the tokenized index reflects accurate performance figures sourced from trusted financial providers. This approach reduces data manipulation risks and boosts investor confidence in tokenized benchmarks, a key hurdle for large institutions entering on-chain markets.
Part of a Bigger Trend
This partnership follows a string of similar moves by Chainlink in recent months. In October 2025, S&P Global Ratingscollaborated with Chainlink to bring stablecoin risk assessments on-chain. Shortly after, FTSE Russell announced a pilot with the same oracle network to tokenize its traditional market indices.
Together, these developments highlight Chainlink’s accelerating influence as the data infrastructure backbone for tokenized financial products, connecting real-world markets with blockchain liquidity.
