U.S. Commerce Department publishes economic data on ten blockchains via Chainlink

The U.S. Department of Commerce has started sharing official economic data on public blockchains for the first time. The data comes from the Bureau of Economic Analysis and travels through Chainlink's network. It is now live on ten different blockchains, including Ethereum and Avalanche. The figures include quarterly GDP data and monthly inflation numbers. Smart contracts can read this data automatically, without developers entering it by hand. Possible uses include prediction markets, inflation-linked digital assets, and lending tools, though no products using this data have launched yet. The feeds were first announced in August 2025. More blockchain networks can be added if users request them. Both Chainlink and Pyth Network helped bring the government data onto these public systems.
