when

<p>Chainlink has launched Chainlink 24/7, a data service designed to keep prices for tokenized stocks, commodities and other real-world assets (RWAs) updating through weekends and market holidays. <a href="https://www.techflowpost.com/en-US/newsletter/141918" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">TechFlow reported</a> that Aave is the first partner to adopt the service, using it for round-the-clock collateral management. <a href="https://x.com/search?q=%24LINK&amp;src=cashtag_click" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">$LINK</a> and <a href="https://x.com/search?q=%24AAVE&amp;src=cashtag_click" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">$AAVE</a> are the tokens linked to the two projects.</p>
<p><a href="https://x.com/Chainlink" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">@Chainlink</a> announced the product at its Link:NYC event on Oct. 29, according to <a href="https://finwire.io/news/crypto-news/chainlink-launches-247-rwa-pricing-with-aave-adoption" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Finwire</a>. The company named institutional lending, prediction markets and perpetual futures among the intended uses.</p>
<h2 id="how-chainlink-24-7-fills-the-weekend-gap">How Chainlink 24/7 Fills the Weekend Gap</h2>
<p>Traditional exchanges close at night and on weekends, but tokenized assets can trade onchain at any time. That leaves oracles with a problem: what price to report when the underlying market is shut.</p>
<p>Chainlink's approach is to combine several sources into one continuous price, <a href="https://cryptobriefing.com/chainlink-24-7-weekend-pricing-aave/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Crypto Briefing reported</a>. During the week, the service draws on regular trading hours plus extended sessions. When traditional markets close entirely, it switches to aggregated quotes from perpetual futures venues. Perpetual futures are derivatives with no expiry date that trade around the clock on crypto-native exchanges. The data is delivered through Chainlink's Data Feeds and Data Streams products.</p>
<p>Chainlink's own documentation shows why this matters. Its <a href="https://docs.chain.link/data-streams/tokenized-asset-streams" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">tokenized asset streams guide</a> says the standard price field does not update on weekends because the underlying equity market is closed. It also warns that weekend liquidity tends to be thin, so users should build in guardrails against unexpected volatility.</p>
<h2 id="why-aave-is-the-first-partner">Why Aave Is the First Partner</h2>
<p><a href="https://x.com/Aave" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">@Aave</a> plans to use the feeds on Horizon, its institutional lending platform, according to Crypto Briefing. The aim is continuous valuation of tokenized RWA collateral, beginning with high-volume US equities. Horizon launched in 2025 and lets institutions borrow stablecoins against tokenized assets such as U.S. Treasuries, <a href="https://www.coindesk.com/business/2025/08/25/aave-labs-debuts-horizon-to-let-institutions-borrow-stablecoins-against-tokenized-assets" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">CoinDesk reported</a>.</p>
<p>Lending protocols constantly check whether a borrower's collateral still covers a loan. If a tokenized stock's price freezes from Friday night to Monday morning, the protocol has no current valuation for the weekend, Crypto Briefing noted. Continuous pricing is intended to reduce that risk for lending protocols, perpetual markets and prediction markets.</p>
<p>Finwire noted that Chainlink did not name a specific Aave market, list the covered assets or give a deployment schedule in its announcement. Further detail on the integration is likely to come as Aave rolls it out.</p>
<p>TechFlow also reported Chainlink's claim that its oracle infrastructure supports over 81% of tokenized RWA value. That figure comes from the company and has not been independently verified.</p>
