<p>Chainlink will play a critical role in the 21X platform by supplying price feeds and cross-chain functionality through its Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP). This technology will reportedly allow 21X to integrate real-time market data and facilitate seamless asset transfers across multiple blockchain networks.</p>
<blockquote>
 <p>“We are thrilled to partner with Chainlink as we prepare to launch Europe’s first tokenized securities market infrastructure," said Max Heinzle, Founder and CEO of 21X. "By leveraging Chainlink’s technology, we will offer a secure and efficient platform for trading and settlement on a public permissionless blockchain.”</p>

<h2 id="strong-key-features-of-the-platform-strong"><strong>Key Features of the Platform</strong></h2>
<ol>
 <li><strong>Regulated Infrastructure</strong>: Operating under the EU’s Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) Regime, 21X will offer regulated order matching, trading, settlement, and registry services for tokenized assets.</li>
 <li><strong>On-Chain Price Feeds</strong>: Chainlink will enable accurate bid and ask price feeds, enriching market data for all listed products.</li>
 <li><strong>Cross-Chain Asset Accessibility</strong>: With CCIP, 21X members will gain access to assets and stablecoins across various blockchain protocols, enhancing liquidity and functionality.</li>
</ol>
<p>Angie Walker, Global Head of Banking and Capital Markets at Chainlink Labs, said:</p>
<blockquote>
 <p>“Our infrastructure will ensure the security and accuracy required for 21X’s tokenized securities platform, fostering trust and adoption across Europe.”</p>
</blockquote>
<p>The launch of 21X comes at a pivotal moment for European crypto markets. The EU’s recently implemented Markets in Crypto Assets (MiCA) regulation has disrupted the industry, leading some firms to scale back operations.&nbsp;</p>
