- Cronos and Amazon AWS are working together to advance tokenization and deliver enhanced blockchain data through cloud infrastructure and AI tools.
- The initiative aims to support $10 billion in tokenized real-world assets and reach 20 million users by 2026.
Cronos, a blockchain ecosystem backed by Crypto.com, will sign an agreement with Amazon Web Services (AWS), a leading cloud computing platform, to open AI stacks to builders and institutions, according to a statement on Tuesday.
As part of the collaboration, Cronos data is integrated into AWS public blockchain data, providing scalable access to large datasets from blockchain networks, allowing businesses and developers to build efficiently and efficiently without infrastructure overhead.
The integration of Cronos data is expected to enable a reliable, reportable pipeline that supports AI agents, advanced analytics, and institutional reporting workflows.
The agreement is also intended to support the Cronos ecosystem. As the team noted, Selected Cronos Builders receives up to $100,000 in AWS credits per startup to develop tokenized pilots, RWA platforms, Defi protocols, and AI applications.
AWS said in a statement that its collaboration with Cronos will combine cloud-grade security with on-chain innovation to create the foundation for a scalable, compliant tokenization platform.
“Financial institutions need robust, secure, and compliant technology solutions to explore innovative approaches to asset tokenization,” commented AWS. “By leveraging AWS’ robust security controls and compliance framework along with Cronos’ blockchain technology, we will enable both innovative startups and established institutions to build tokenization solutions that meet the highest standards of security and regulatory requirements.”
Mirko Zhao of Cronos Labs believes tokenization and real-world assets will drive the next wave of blockchain adoption.
“Cronos has its distribution uniquely through Crypto.com, liquidity anchored in CRO, and a roadmap that connects tokenization and AI to one interoperable system,” he said. “The construction of AWS extends this foundation and provides a secure and scalable pathway for institutions to bridge traditional, decentralized finance.”
Cronos’ collaboration with AWS is a key step in implementing the 2025-2026 roadmap, focusing on facility-grade tokenization across multiple asset classes.
With a platform designed to support everything from traditional securities to real estate, and recent performance improvements that drive a surge in network activity, Cronos aims to support $100 billion in tokenized assets by 2026, with 20 million users.
Cronos is currently ranked in the top 15 blockchain ecosystem with over $6 billion user assets, as the team points out, and has processed more than 100 million transactions since its launch.
