Kinexys despatched tokenized U.S. Treasuries to Ondo Chain’s testnet whereas concurrently receiving cost, leveraging Chainlink’s know-how.
Kinexys by J.P. Morgan, Ondo Finance and Chainlink have efficiently transferred real-world belongings (RWA) throughout blockchains whereas concurrently making funds.
In what’s often known as a Supply vs. Fee (DvP) transaction, Ondo despatched Brief-Time period U.S. Treasuries from its OUSG fund to Kinexys by way of the Chainlink Runtime Setting (CRE) for an atomic, or simultaneous, transaction.

DvP transactions are a standard finance (TradFi) technique of cost, designed to make sure that cost is made both earlier than or concurrently with the supply of an asset.
Whereas DvP is meant to scale back settlement threat, in observe, “workflows are hindered by siloed infrastructure and manual processes,” Chainlink mentioned in a weblog submit. This introduces delays, will increase counterparty threat and causes settlement failures which can be estimated to have value market members greater than $914 billion over the previous decade.
Blockchain know-how presents a chance to streamline this course of, permitting transactions to be settled atomically, in accordance with Chainlink.
