I’ve never been so excited for our industry.
Watching Chainlink’s Sergey Nazarov speak at the Philadelphia Fed’s Fintech Conference yesterday sitting on a panel with JPMorgan’s Global Payments Co-head and AWS’s Head of Institutional Payments, presenting to a room that included Fed Governor Waller, SEC Chair Atkins, and Acting CFTC Chairman Pham this was the moment.
He walked them through how Chainlink’s Automated Compliance Engine creates the compliance infrastructure institutions need.
How Proof of Reserve makes catastrophic minting errors like the $300 trillion fat finger incident technically impossible.
The message landed: blockchain doesn’t make regulatory oversight harder, it makes it dramatically more efficient. Programmable compliance isn’t just possible… it’s the future.
A year ago, the idea of discussing DeFi and regulated digital assets at a Federal Reserve conference was unimaginable. Yesterday, the co-head of payments at the world’s largest bank, AWS’s institutional payments chief, and Chainlink’s founder sat together mapping out exactly how traditional finance and blockchain converge.
Fed President Anna Paulson opened by bringing together “technologists and bankers, regulators and entrepreneurs, academics and investors” to shape the future of finance. That’s exactly what we witnessed. The same day, JPMorgan launched JPM Coin on Base. BlackRock’s Head of Digital Assets spoke about tokenizing the world. Caroline Pham talked about ending the turf war and making America the crypto capital.
For everyone who’s been building through the noise this is what we’ve been working toward. Not crypto replacing finance, but blockchain becoming the infrastructure layer for a more efficient, more transparent, more programmable financial system.
Clear rules. Supportive regulators. Major institutions deploying at scale. The technology we’ve spent years perfecting suddenly being discussed as the solution to problems central banks and trillion dollar institutions are actively trying to solve.
What a day. What a year. What a time to be building onchain.
Chainlink America
What an incredible moment to be in this industry.
Yesterday at the @philadelphiafed’s 9th Annual Fintech Conference, I witnessed in person something remarkable; America’s top financial regulators delivering a unified, overwhelmingly positive vision for crypto and blockchain infrastructure.
Fed Governor Christopher Waller announced a Q4 2026 timeline for streamlined payment accounts that could give stablecoin issuers direct access to Fed payment rails. His words: “We’re moving at startup speed on this: we’re not screwing around like federal regulators.” He called stablecoins “competition in payments” and said the Fed’s philosophy is now to “embrace the disruption, don’t avoid it.”
@SECPaulSAtkins delivered what may be the most important regulatory speech in crypto history. He declared that “most crypto tokens trading today are not themselves securities” and unveiled a four-category token taxonomy framework that finally provides the clarity this industry has been begging for.
@CarolineDPham joined in championing the Trump administration’s vision of making America the “crypto capital of the world.” The coordination between Fed, SEC, and CFTC is unprecedented; the turf war is over, and they’re working together to build clear rules that enable innovation.
This is the American way and how America will continue to lead the global financial system.
For Chainlink, being in rooms like this where the future of financial infrastructure is being shaped is exactly why we’ve spent years building the most secure, reliable oracle platform, now CCIP for cross-chain interoperability, Proof of Reserve, ACE, Confidential Compute and more. When regulators talk about the DeFi-TradFi integration, tokenized collateral, stablecoins as payment infrastructure, and putting real-world assets onchain, they’re describing the exact future we’ve been building toward.
Massive thanks to Julapa Jagtiani from @PhiladelphiaFed for organizing such a transformative event. As Senior Economic Advisor and the visionary who launched this fintech conference series in 2016, she’s created one of the most important annual gatherings in our industry. The quality of speakers, the depth of discussion, and the forward-thinking agenda made this event historic.
2025 is shaping up to be the year we look back on as the inflection point when America’s financial regulators stopped asking “if” and started working on “how.”
What a time to be building the infrastructure for the future of global finance.
