[Finextra](https://www.finextra.com/pressarticle/111339/archax-adopts-chainlink?utm_medium=rssfinextra&utm_source=finextrafeed) reported the adoption on October 19, 2026.\n\n## How Chainlink Data Streams Serves $GOVY\n\n[Archax](https://akta.pro/company-profiles/00002wp/archax) said the integration provides the data needed to enable on-chain lending, collateral and treasury-management applications for banks, asset managers and DeFi users. $GOVY gives eligible investors direct, legally enforceable exposure to short-dated US Treasury Bills held 1:1 in regulated custody, with Northern Trust as custodian for the underlying securities. As each T-Bill matures, it is automatically replaced with an equivalent short-dated security.\n\nThe product supports transfers between eligible, whitelisted wallets, the option to take delivery of the underlying tokenized T-Bills, and 24/7/365 subscription and redemption using supported stablecoins. Archax said Chainlink Data Streams turns $GOVY into programmable collateral, letting institutions support secured lending and credit markets, calculate borrowing capacity and loan-to-value ratios, automate collateral management, inform margin requirements, and integrate the token into automated cash, liquidity and yield-management strategies.\n\n[Chainlink Labs](https://akta.pro/company-profiles/0000269/chainlink-labs) hired Frank Seibold as head of banking and capital markets for the Americas in September 2026, according to Securitiesfinancetimes. Johann Eid, Chief Business Officer at Chainlink Labs, said: \"We're excited to see Archax adopt Chainlink to make tokenized treasuries usable across the digital finance economy. By connecting Chainlink's market-leading data infrastructure and Archax's 1:1 custody model, $GOVY bypasses the friction of traditional Treasury products, enabling it to be adopted seamlessly across on-chain protocols as verifiable, yield-bearing collateral.\"\n\nNick Donovan, Chief Revenue Officer at Archax, said: \"Institutions need more than a digital representation of an asset. They need regulated custody, clear legal rights, and dependable market data. Chainlink Data Streams provides the industry-standard pricing infrastructure needed to integrate $GOVY into sophisticated lending, collateral, and treasury management applications, turning it into a programmable asset that both banks and DeFi protocols can integrate at scale.\"\n\n## Archax's Tokenized Asset Platform\n\nArchax lists more than 100 tokenized assets on its platform, according to akta.pro [company records](https://akta.pro/company-data), with tokenized assets from 7 asset managers and more than $400 million in tokenized assets available. The same records show 8 funding rounds on file, including a $28.5 million Series A in November 2022 led by Aberdeen and a corporate-funded round in October 2025 led by tZERO.\n\n## Earlier Archax Tokenization Moves\n\nArchax launched $GOVY in June 2026, a tokenized perpetual US Treasury Bill product backed 1:1 by short-dated T-Bills held in Northern Trust custody, Google reported. In June 2026, tZERO Group and Archax announced a partnership to distribute $GOVY to US qualified purchasers through tZERO's SEC-registered and FINRA-member broker-dealer ecosystem later that year, TradingView reported. Archax integrated with Aptos in September 2026 to move over 100 regulated tokenized securities and real-world assets onchain, with the MembersCap Tokenized Global Reinsurance Income Fund as the first product, Crypto Briefing reported.\n\n## US Broker-Dealer Registration\n\nArchax Markets received FINRA approval to register as a US broker-dealer, with US operations expected in Q3 2026, FinancialContent Business Page reported. Through tZERO, it will offer digital asset securities custody, clearing, escrow and secondary trading.\n","publisher":{"name":"News for Agent","url":"https://newsforagent.com"}}
