In a move set to redefine the role of real-world assets (RWAs) in decentralized finance, RedStone, a rising oracle provider, has officially launched on Solana, delivering verified, institutional-grade data to power next-generation DeFi applications.
The integration, enabled through partnerships with Securitize and Wormhole Queries, is bringing tokenized financial products such as Apollo’s ACRED and BlackRock’s BUIDL to Solana’s high-speed, low-cost blockchain ecosystem. This marks a major leap from simple tokenization to true composability — making RWAs fully usable across decentralized lending platforms, vault strategies, and more.
Building the Foundation for Institutional DeFi on Solana
The first flagship application to incorporate RedStone’s oracle data will be Drift Institutional, a platform designed to provide institutional investors with native access to Solana’s DeFi infrastructure. By leveraging RedStone’s attested and secure feeds, Drift Institutional is paving the way for greater institutional engagement with blockchain-native finance.
“This is a foundational step in making RWAs not just visible but usable in DeFi on Solana,” said Marcin Kazmierczak, co-founder of RedStone, in a statement shared with crypto.news.
Solana’s high-throughput design and near-zero transaction fees have long made it a contender for DeFi growth. With the addition of reliable RWA data from RedStone, the network is now equipped to support real-world investment products with consistent, off-chain yields a vital component for mainstream financial adoption.
Powering TradFi-DeFi Interoperability with Securitize
The integration is supported by Securitize, a leader in asset tokenization that works with traditional giants like BlackRock and Apollo. With over $3.6 billion in tokenized assets under management, Securitize’s infrastructure ensures compliance, transparency, and interoperability across the TradFi-DeFi divide.
Reid Simon, Head of Credit and DeFi at Securitize, called the RedStone-Solana collaboration “a step toward seamless TradFi-DeFi interoperability.” By combining RedStone’s modular oracle feeds with Wormhole’s cross-chain data infrastructure, the initiative is expected to usher in a new era of asset utility and composability.
From Narrative to Utility: What’s Next?
This Solana rollout builds upon RedStone’s earlier success on Polygon, where the launch of an ACRED-backed vault with Morpho demonstrated the demand for on-chain access to yield-bearing real-world instruments. The Solana expansion promises to accelerate similar use cases, scaling adoption from institutional desks to retail users.
With verified, tamper-resistant data now flowing into the Solana ecosystem, developers can confidently create lending protocols, synthetic assets, and investment vehicles tied directly to real-world returns.
As more institutions look to blockchain for transparency and efficiency, this integration stands as a powerful example of how oracle networks, tokenization standards, and performant chains like Solana can converge to transform RWAs from concept to cornerstone in the evolving DeFi landscape.
