Bloomberg teams up with Kaiko to bring on-chain financial data, potentially upgrading pricing standards in the tokenized U.S. Treasury market
On February 27, Bloomberg announced a partnership with Paris-based digital asset data company Kaiko to directly integrate financial market data into blockchain networks. The first use case focuses on tokenized U.S. Treasuries and repurchase markets.
According to both parties, the collaboration includes providing on-chain pricing information, security identifiers, and reference data. Traditionally, this data is stored in off-chain databases, with different institutions often using different versions, leading to quote discrepancies for the same U.S. Treasury across banks and increasing clearing and reconciliation costs. By introducing a unified authorized data source, market participants can share consistent data sets on-chain, reducing operational risks.
This service is deployed on Canton Network, a permissioned blockchain network designed for institutional financial applications. Kaiko previously launched its Canton Network data access service in August 2025. The partnership with Bloomberg further expands its data coverage.
Data accuracy has long been an issue in the tokenization of real-world assets. In May, Plume co-founder Chris Yin noted that the RWA market size might be overestimated. Currently, RWA.xyz data shows the tokenized real-world asset market at approximately $25 billion (excluding stablecoins).
Kaiko CEO Ambre Soubiran stated that institutional-grade pricing data is fundamental for the proper functioning of tokenized securities. As traditional financial data infrastructure extends into the blockchain environment, the transparency and consistency of tokenized U.S. Treasury pricing are expected to improve. This partnership also reflects how traditional financial information providers are accelerating their efforts to build blockchain financial infrastructure.
