Chainlink introduces new pricing methodology for DEX-traded assets

2 min read

Chainlink has announced a new pricing methodology purpose-built to offer reliable pricing for cryptocurrency and tokenized assets primarily traded on decentralized exchanges.

Summary
  • Chainlink has introduced State Pricing, a new asset pricing solution for assets primarily traded on decentralized exchanges.
  • Initial support includes for assets such as Lido’s wrapped staked Ethereum and Coinbase wrapped Bitcoin.

An announcement Chainlink (LINK) shared on August 1 states that Chainlink State Pricing targets assets that show limited trading volumes on centralized exchanges, but have robust liquidity onchain. 

The new solution, accessible on the Chainlink mainnet via the platform’s Data Feeds and Data Streams features, allows for assessment of an asset’s price accuracy, market resilience, and liquidity. This is set to benefit developers seeking more choice and flexibility in pricing onchain assets.

What’s state price?

An asset’s state price refers to the price determined by the liquidity reserves in onchain DEX liquidity pools. This price “always exists,” enabling the continuous pricing of assets that are traded less frequently and offering resistance to flash loan attacks.

Supported assets

Initially, Chainlink will support assets such as wrapped stETH (wstETH), Aave stablecoin GHO, and Coinbase wrapped Bitcoin (cbBTC). The solution is expected to expand in the coming months to cover additional crypto and tokenized assets, blockchains, and DEX protocols.

Decentralized finance protocols that have integrated Chainlink State Pricing include Aave, Curve, Lido, and GMX.

The new feature adds to Chainlink’s current pricing methodologies such as volume-weighted average pricing and liquidity-weighted bid/ask pricing. Developers can access Chainlink State Pricing via data feeds as a push-based oracle solution, or through data streams as a pull-based oracle solution.
