Pharos Network, the value discovery layer for the agent economy and RealFi, today announced its integration with Fireblocks, which serves as its custodial technology provider. Fireblocks is the leading platform used by global financial institutions to build on-chain financial services.
Through this integration, assets supported by Pharos will be incorporated into Fireblocks clients’ existing custody environment, enabling institutions to manage eligible assets under their security policies, transaction controls, and approval workflows. Both parties will also conduct joint marketing initiatives to drive growth in the RWA ecosystem.
Institutional participation in on-chain markets requires custody, private key security, transaction authorization, and governance that align with their existing operational models. Through Fireblocks integration, funds, asset management firms, payment service providers, and exchanges already using Fireblocks can hold, transfer, and manage Pharos-supported assets within their current workspaces and systems.
This means the aforementioned institutions do not need to build separate custody and key management infrastructure; their security, compliance, and funds teams can participate in the Pharos ecosystem using familiar operational processes.
Meanwhile, configurable trading strategies—including smart contract whitelisting and multi-party approval—help institutions apply their existing authorization and governance requirements to eligible transactions.
The initial RealFi assets supported in this integration have all been issued on the Pharos blockchain, including the tokenized U.S. high-yield credit product Raffaello NYLIM HYB Vault (pRNH) and the NYLIM Anemoy Fund.
At the same time, the initial support scope includes Axil Prime Credit (APC) issued on the R25 Protocol and the Pharos native token, $PROS.
As of today, the total value of assets aggregated on the Pharos RWA platform has surpassed $241.64 million, reflecting the growing diversity of real-world asset strategies and financial products within the ecosystem.
At the custody layer, Fireblocks provides MPC-based private key management and configurable transaction policies, including contract whitelisting and multi-party approval.
These control mechanisms enforce restrictions on eligible transactions on Pharos based on the policies and permissions configured by each institution. For institutions, this integration provides another pathway to access on-chain supported assets within their existing digital asset management environment.
This integration also connects asset issuers and protocols on Pharos with a mature institutional-grade digital asset infrastructure platform, providing additional access pathways for supported tokenized assets and bringing custody and trade management closer to the workflows required by institutional holders and managers of assets.
For the broader ecosystem, this includes credit strategies such as APC on the R25 Protocol, connecting tokenized real-world assets with on-chain credit markets and institutional digital asset infrastructure.
This integration also lays the foundation for a longer-term collaboration between the two parties. Pharos and Fireblocks plan to work together on market expansion initiatives supporting the growing demand for tokenized real-world assets, including coordinated marketing efforts, joint participation in industry events, and targeted referrals to help issuers and protocols more effectively reach institutional audiences.
These initiatives are expected to complement this technical integration and gradually contribute to the further expansion of the ecosystem.
“Institutions don’t adopt new networks by rebuilding an entirely new tech stack—they adopt them through their existing infrastructure,” said Wish Wu, Co-founder and CEO of Pharos.
Wish Wu further noted: “Integrating Fireblocks brings Pharos into a mature institutional-grade operating environment. Given that supported RealFi assets already exist on the network, institutions have a practical starting point to access and manage on-chain real-world value.”
