Coinbase teams with Chainlink to bring exchange data onchain for first time

The integration is the debut of Coinbase publishing its internal market data on public blockchain networks.

“The Chainlink data standard is battle-tested, institutional-grade infrastructure, making it the clear choice for bringing Coinbase‘s market data into onchain markets,” Liz Martin, Coinbase Markets’ Vice President, stated. “Our benchmarks enable DeFi and TradFi developers to build more robust onchain apps across derivatives, tokenized assets, and more.”

What data is going onchain？

DeFi platforms can now tap into spot pricing from Coinbases retail and institutional venues, perpetual futures feeds from Coinbase International Exchange, e-mini futures data, and datasets covering metals, energy, and equity futures offered through Coinbase Derivatives Exchange.

Publishing it through Chainlinks decentralized oracle network means any smart contract can consume it natively, without trusting a single intermediary to relay the numbers.

The development strengthens the DeFi infrastructure by making high-volume institutional trading data available onchain, said Johann Eid, Chief Business Officer at Chainlink Labs.

“We are proving that the future of finance requires a foundation of uncompromising security. We arent just moving data; we are building the programmable market infrastructure defining the next era of tokenization and accelerating the convergence of institutional finance and DeFi,” Eid emphasized.

Building on earlier integrations

The partnership extends a series of integrations between the two companies that have accelerated through late 2025 and into 2026.
