Ondo Finance Launches New Blockchain for Tokenized Assets

Ondo Finance announced the launch of its new Layer 1 blockchain network, Ondo Chain, today at the Ondo Summit in New York City. 

This blockchain network provides essential support to institutional adoption, as tokenized real-world assets (RWAs) are becoming an important trend in the finance world. 

According to Nathan Allman, CEO of Ondo Finance, Ondo Chain was created with the aim of meeting the highest institutional standards yet at the same time being open enough for developers and innovators. 

“Ondo Chain is designed to meet the highest institutional standards while remaining open for developers and innovators,” he said in the press release .

The platform is aimed at creating a shift in public and permissioned governance approaches so as to allow potential partners to work with tokenized RWAs. Ondo Chain is intended to offer a solution that combines security, lower costs, and a better user experience.

In addition, along with the main features, the new blockchain has permissioned validators that come up with a system to prevent front-running and allow gas fees for a more seamless experience. 

The main objective is to make the financial institutions that use the platform for different applications like prime brokerage, staking, and cross-collateralized margins for RWAs and cryptocurrency. monsters become more relevant in their industry.

Ondo Finance believes that through this unique mixture of features, Ondo Chain would explode into the spotlight in decentralized finance, providing digitalized assets and services to a wide range of financial users.

The launch of Ondo Chain is part of a larger initiative by Ondo Finance to integrate traditional finance (TradFi) systems into the decentralized finance space. The new network, which aims to bridge the gap between these two worlds, not only offers the security and compliance that institutions require but also provides flexibility to developers.
