Introducing Chainlink CustodySync, a new solution that lets qualified custodians give their institutional clients access to DeFi lending markets, all while assets remain securely in custody.
With @Anchorage as the official launch partner, together we’re establishing a new standard for institutional DeFi.
CustodySync keeps custody and lending systems in sync across the full lifecycle of a loan:
→ For custodians: faster time to market and lower operational overhead, with custodian-managed controls
→ For lending markets: independent, verifiable data and a consistent risk framework
→ For institutions: passive capital becomes productive capital
More than $80 billion sits in DeFi lending markets. Meanwhile, the roughly $700 billion in digital assets under custody is less than 0.5% of all $250 trillion in traditional assets under custody. The opportunity to connect traditional institutional capital to onchain finance remains vast.
Large institutions have lacked a secure way of accessing these markets. Regulations require many of them to keep their digital assets with a qualified custodian, a firm that meets specific requirements for holding assets on behalf of clients, and custody systems were never built for DeFi. Even when custody and lending systems are connected, inconsistent loan valuations can trigger premature liquidation or delayed liquidations, exposing borrowers and lenders to significant financial risk.
@Anchorage, home to the first federally chartered digital asset bank in the U.S., is the first qualified custodian to adopt CustodySync, connecting its institutional clients to DeFi lending markets while their assets remain in regulated custody.
Institutional capital no longer has to choose between the security of custody and the liquidity of DeFi.
With Chainlink, it gets both.

Today's episode is with @KarwanLiam05, Head of RWAs at @Chainlink Labs.
3 Key Takeaways:
- Karwan says institutional conversations have shifted: "They know what to do. They know how to do it. And they come to us to know how to do it successfully."
- On how fast this scales: "It's going to be slow, but quicker than we think." He puts the market at roughly $300 billion including stablecoins, compared with $100 trillion in capital markets.
- He calls tokenized stocks "properly hyped" and has a view on wrapped versus natively issued equities.

As Kamino expands support for institutional tokenized collateral, cross-chain security becomes a core part of market design.
@chainlink CCIP provides the consistent security foundation needed to support higher caps and LTVs across Kamino markets.
