Contact the desk →Chainlink introduced CustodySync on October 26, 2026, with Anchorage Digital Bank as its official launch partner. The solution is designed to synchronize a qualified custodian’s collateral-management system with an onchain lending market across deposits, borrowing, repayment and liquidation. Anchorage’s Atlas Collateral Management product is intended to support the institutional tri-party structure and collateral-agent functions.
Client collateral remains with the custodian, whose system serves as the source of truth for balances. Chainlink Proof of Reserve publishes custody balances onchain, while a transfer-restricted receipt token represents the custodied assets inside the lending integration. Chainlink Data Feeds and Data Streams are designed to supply matching prices to the onchain market and the custodian’s offchain system.
The announcement names Anchorage as the first qualified custodian building with CustodySync. It does not name a specific lending protocol, disclose live loan volume or document a completed borrowing transaction. Chainlink also cautions that features may vary by custodian and that not every described feature may be available through Anchorage.
