Chainlink partners with US Department of Commerce to bring macroeconomic data onchain
The U.S. Department of Commerce has become the first federal agency to publish official macroeconomic statistics directly onto public blockchain networks. Announced on August 28, 2025, the initiative utilizes Chainlink Data Feeds to deliver six key metrics sourced from the Bureau of Economic Analysis to ten different blockchains. These metrics include Real GDP, the Personal Consumption Expenditures Price Index, and Real Final Sales to Private Domestic Purchasers, provided in both level and annual rate formats. The initial rollout supports Arbitrum, Avalanche, Base, Botanix, Ethereum, Linea, Mantle, Optimism, Sonic, and ZKsync. Beyond the Chainlink integration, the department has also published Q2 2025 GDP data to Bitcoin and Solana in collaboration with exchanges like Coinbase and Kraken. Additionally, a partnership with the Pyth Network aims to further integrate this economic data into the broader DeFi ecosystem. This move represents a significant milestone for the RWA market by establishing a verifiable, onchain source of truth for government economic data. By bridging official federal statistics with decentralized infrastructure, the initiative enhances data transparency and enables more sophisticated, data-driven financial applications onchain.
