SIX Protocol is a blockchain infrastructure layer designed to help businesses migrate their assets, including cryptocurrency and NFT, to the destination chain by issuing their tokens. The SIX Protocol team also provides other consulting services, such as supply figures, Initial Asset Offering Service (IAO), decentralized KYC, whitelist management, and many more.
SIX is headquartered in Switzerland and is owned by approximately 120 financial institutions. Its business spans exchanges, post-trade services, financial information, and payment infrastructure.
According to The Block, SIX Group, a leading European stock exchange operator, announced that its Swiss exchange, SIX Swiss Exchange, and Spain’s BME Exchange will bring stock market data on-chain via Chainlink nodes. This collaboration enables smart contracts to directly read market data from both exchanges, facilitating the development of blockchain use cases such as tokenized stock indices, structured products, decentralized finance (DeFi) applications, and prediction markets. The combined market capitalization of the two SIX Group exchanges totals €2 trillion, making this initiative a trusted data source for the global financial ecosystem. Previously, prominent financial institutions—including Deutsche Börse, FTSE Russell, and S&P Global—as well as cryptocurrency companies such as Coinbase, have also launched similar partnerships with Chainlink. Since its launch last year, Chainlink’s DataLink service has been integrated into thousands of decentralized applications and across dozens of blockchains.
