The ApeX protocol powers RWA Perpetual by integrating Chainlink data streams, bringing the traditional RWA market with institutional-grade data infrastructure on-chain.
This integration replaces a centralized price feed with Chainlink’s premium low-latency oracle solution, providing real-world asset price updates in less than a second across five networks: Arbitrum, Base, BNB Chain, Ethereum, and Mantle.
Chainlink data streams power new infrastructure
Chainlink Data Streams has secured over $26 trillion in on-chain transaction volume on protocols such as Aave, GMX, and Lido. Oracle Network is now providing ApeX with the infrastructure to provide real-world asset prices on-chain with the speed and reliability required for professional derivatives trading.
This integration solves the critical challenge of delivering real-world asset price data on-chain at sub-second intervals, rather than the multi-minute updates typical of traditional Oracle solutions. This will enable ApeX traders to execute RWA perpetual trades with responsiveness similar to centralized exchanges.
Technical implementation across five networks
The system provides liquidity-weighted bid-ask spreads rather than a single price point, giving ApeX’s protocol detailed data for risk management and tighter execution. This multi-chain deployment allows users to conduct RWA perpetual transactions on their preferred networks without compromising data quality.
Leading institutions such as Swift, Mastercard, and UBS have adopted Chainlink’s infrastructure, proving its enterprise readiness. After evaluating multiple oracle solutions, ApeX selected Chainlink Data Streams for its proven track record, high-frequency data delivery, transparency, and multi-chain coverage.
Benefits for traders on the ApeX platform
This integration enables several important improvements to RWA perpetual trading.
Traders can access both crypto and traditional stock markets through a single decentralized platform. Sub-second oracle updates reduce spreads, make pricing more accurate, and allow traders to enter and exit positions in line with real-time market conditions.
The same oracle technology that secures billions of dollars in institutional DeFi protocols now powers ApeX’s RWA perpetual service. Unlike hybrid solutions that rely on centralized price feeds, Chainlink’s oracle network maintains transparency throughout the data pipeline.
Whether trading with Arbitrum’s low fees, Base’s ecosystem, or Mantle’s infrastructure, users receive consistent data quality across all supported chains.
Location of ApeX in the mantle ecosystem
The launch follows ApeX’s APE Season 1 farming initiative and strategic token buyback totaling $8.08 million worth of APEX tokens. As a major contributor within the Mantle ecosystem, ApeX has strengthened its position through collaborations with projects such as UR.
Chainlink’s integration provides traders with a comprehensive decentralized trading platform to access opportunities from cryptocurrencies to traditional stocks.
Impact on decentralized finance
This integration signals a broader evolution of DeFi infrastructure. Oracle’s solution provides institutional-grade data with sub-second latency, allowing the protocol to offer a product that directly competes with centralized platforms in execution quality.
This integration shows that DeFi infrastructure is maturing to support complex financial products without compromising decentralization. As more real-world asset price data flows through decentralized oracles, network effects will occur, allowing other protocols to build on Chainlink’s infrastructure.
Positioning ApeX for the next era of on-chain markets
The integration of the ApeX protocol with Chainlink Data Streams marks a defining moment for decentralized derivatives trading. By bringing RWA Perpetual on-chain with sub-second oracle updates, the platform provides a financial infrastructure that maintains openness and transparency without sacrificing performance.
This integration validates that distributed infrastructure can reach parity with centralized infrastructure in speed, reliability, and data quality. Combined with ApeX’s continued momentum and deepening integration within the Mantle ecosystem, the protocol positions itself as a destination for derivatives traders seeking professional-level execution within DeFi.
As traditional finance continues to move on-chain, protocols with institutional infrastructure will lead the way. The integration of Chainlink Data Streams is both a technological upgrade and a sign of the arrival of decentralized trading.
