First tweet! New chapter. I just joined @chainlink as Head of Institutional and Market Development.
After 4.5 years at @eToro and 15+ years in trading and capital markets, getting to work on institutional crypto adoption feels like exactly where I should be now.
Banks and asset managers aren't asking "should we" anymore. They're building with @chainlink. It’s a joy to be part of this story.

Andrew McCormick, Head of Institutional at Chainlink Labs, joined me to discuss the latest developments at Chainlink, including the launch of CCIP 2.0 and Fulcrum, how major institutions like DTCC are leveraging Chainlink’s technology, and the accelerating race to tokenize assets and bring traditional financial markets on-chain.

The thing I’m most grateful to Elon for is bringing back an age of wonder and excitement to humanity. That was jaw-dropping awesome! Screams and mouths wide open in the audience. Nuts.

This is Stellar news.
NEW: Chainlink oracle infrastructure is now live on @StellarOrg, bringing Data Feeds and Data Streams to Stellar network’s $4B+ RWA ecosystem.
Devs gain verifiable market data powering lending, stablecoins, tokenized equities, & more.
Through the Chainlink Scale program, Stellar is making a substantial capital commitment to give its builders cost-efficient access to high-quality, institutional-grade oracle infra.

Happy to report from the @nyse that @chainlink is now in our Utility Era. It might not be quite as exciting as Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour, but the economic impact could be even bigger.
Thankful to join @FINTECHTVglobal and @KristenScholer to discuss tokenization trends and Chainlink products putting onchain assets to work for both institutional and retail investors.

Talking about Chainlink as an oracle provider is like talking about Amazon as a book seller.
Andrew McCormick on why @chainlink is more than an oracle: 70% of DeFi transactions touch Chainlink rails.

New episode of @GSR_io’s The Crypto Tape.
I sat down with Chainlink’s @AndrewMcMarkets to talk about why tokenized equities are taking off, why big banks suddenly want to talk DeFi, and how bringing private markets onchain could unlock entirely new forms of borrowing.
Plus, why calling Chainlink an oracle is like calling Amazon a bookseller.
Episode drops tomorrow.

I think this demo by Chainlink and DTCC at Sibos 2026 will be an “aha!” moment that changes the game. The video shows how a $5M lending agreement can be initiated, created, executed, and even settled in seconds. Firms will have a better way to find opportunities and manage risk, and the earnings potential is massive. The orchestration fee shown in the demo was $.14 of LINK.
I’m not the only one excited about Fulcrum. A few quotes from DTCC’s Dan Doney really stood out to me during the demo:
“This is a model that ultimately takes what amounts to transactions in excess of $20T a day and completely automates the process.”
“The transaction we are doing here is the essential transaction in institutional finance”
“Any asset anywhere in any jurisdiction with any custodial system any time of day is now mobile.”
“This kind of system frees up $52T worth of assets.”
This is big. Well worth 35 minutes of time to watch the video.
DTCC AND CHAINLINK AT SIBOS 2026
DTCC's Dan Doney and @SergeyNazarov presented how @The_DTCC is collaborating with Chainlink to advance 24/7 collateral management.
DTCC's Collateral AppChain provides shared infrastructure near real-time collateral management across financial markets and blockchains.
“The problem being solved is the fragmentation of data, how everybody connects to move collateral and settle transactions, and the different systems that need to talk to each other but cannot do so quickly enough to allow intraday collateral movement.” - Sergey Nazarov
DTCC’s Collateral AppChain will leverage the Chainlink Runtime Environment (CRE) for orchestration between those systems and data sources, and CCIP which enables the movement of assets, value, and liquidity to and from the AppChain.
"You finally have a reliable and legally binding ledger from the DTCC that everyone can rely on, just like they rely on the DTCC now. That's a very powerful thing that I think the capital markets have been waiting for, where they can't get that from just any chain because those guarantees with the DTCC are fundamentally different" Nazarov also added.
The DTCC Collateral AppChain is expected to launch in Q1 2027.

This is one of my favorite topics to discuss (other than family and tacos). Thankful I get to work on these issues @chainlink and for the chance to discuss them with @fintechfrank.
"I'm passionate about retail investors having better access to build a better life for themselves and tokenized equities can do that." – Chainlink's @AndrewMcMarkets chainlinktoday.com/chainlink…

If institutions can trade events directly through prediction markets, why trade the proxy through currencies, bonds or equities?
And is the infrastructure ready to scale?
Great discussion at TOKEN2049 with @Kalshi, @AndrewMcMarkets at @chainlink and @ShiliangTang.

Still not sure what day it is in Singapore, but I am sure I enjoyed this discussion @token2049 yesterday! Loved talking about @chainlink and the future of tokenized markets with leaders from Nasdaq, FalconX, and Ripple Prime.
