BridgeTower Capital has officially deployed Chainlink’s entire infrastructure stack to tokenize securities tied to the DOM
summary
- BridgeTower Capital is using the full Chainlink stack, including CCIP, Proof of Reserve, NAVLink, and CRE, to transfer $11 billion in securities into the DOM X Arizona Copper-Gold project.
- The deployment is a live production infrastructure, not a pilot, making it one of the largest single-asset token creations ever at an institutional level.
- BridgeTower plans to expand the same platform to tokenize more than $25 billion in additional US natural resources, energy and minerals assets.
Bridge Tower Capital Announce On April 23, Chainlink’s entire infrastructure stack was certified to tokenize securities from the DOM The deployment covers the full tokenization lifecycle: Chainlink’s CCIP for cross-chain connectivity to regulated DeFi venues and licensed secondary markets, Proof of Reserve to verify on-chain assets, NAVLink for real-time valuation data, and the Chainlink Runtime Environment to orchestrate compliance, backup checks, and settlement automation in a single operational environment.
The Chainlink BridgeTower DOM X token represents the first of its kind in physical goods infrastructure
The distinction between live production and experimental production is materially important. Such as crypto.news I mentionedInstitutional buyers evaluating token sellers need production proofs, not proof-of-concept demos, before agreeing to vendor relationships or allocating capital. The deployment of DOM Johan Eid, chief business officer at Chainlink Labs, said the publication shows “what assets look like when tokenized assets become core institutional infrastructure,” adding that the world’s largest financial institutions are monitoring tokenization right now and looking for exactly this kind of evidence at production scale. Protocol-level KYC, KYB and AML controls are embedded throughout the platform, while investor subscriptions are funded through fiat and stablecoin paths powered by MoonPay’s subsidiary, Iron. A privacy-preserving workflow for institutional IPO is also being developed, keeping ownership positions confidential while maintaining on-chain compliance and verifiability.
Why physical goods are the next frontier for tokenization
The BridgeTower deployment arrives as the tokenized commodity market accelerates. Such as crypto.news Notarizedthe value of token commodities exceeded $7 billion by April 2026, rising nearly 600% since early 2025, with gold-backed tokens dominating but oil, natural gas, and agricultural products quickly gaining share. Physical commodities present a different tokenization challenge compared to financial assets: they require a verified backup certificate for the underlying physical materials, real-time commodity pricing data that can vary by location and grade, and cross-chain connectivity to multiple settlement venues where institutional goods are clearly traded. Chainlink’s Proof of Reserve, NAVLink, and CCIP address each of these requirements directly. Such as crypto.news trackingCCIP averaged approximately $90 million in weekly token transfers by March 2026 and the network has enabled more than $28 trillion in cumulative transaction value, providing the operational track record that institutional compliance teams require prior to deployment.
$25 billion pipeline behind initial deployment
BridgeTower structured the DOM X deployment as the first phase of a much larger program. The company plans to tokenize a pipeline of more than $25 billion of natural resources, energy and metals assets through the same platform that powers Chainlink, with the DOM X copper and gold project serving as the production reference point for this expanded offering. Such as crypto.news maleChainlink launched 24/7 US stock data streams across more than 40 blockchains in the same week as the BridgeTower announcement, with a $27 billion RWA token and Chainlink being positioned as a core oracle infrastructure across its growing enterprise pipeline. LINK was trading at around $9.31 on April 23 as the announcement was made, consolidating below the $9.50 resistance level that analysts had identified as the near-term catalyst for a potential directional move.
Corey Pugh, CEO of BridgeTower, described the platform as an end-to-end system in which CRE acts as an orchestration layer that connects data agents, regulatory agents, compliance and payments logic within a single orchestrated environment, with enterprise release and distribution readiness built in from day one.
