Pharos Network Integrates Fireblocks to Bring RealFi Assets into Institutional-Grade Custody Workflows

Pharos Network, the value discovery layer for the agent economy and RealFi (real-world finance), announced today that it has completed an integration with Fireblocks, with Fireblocks serving as its custody technology provider. Fireblocks is the platform relied upon by leading global financial institutions to build on-chain financial services. Through this integration, Pharos-supported assets will enter the existing custody environments of Fireblocks clients, enabling institutions to manage eligible assets under their security policies, transaction controls, and approval workflows. The two parties will also conduct joint marketing to support the growth of the RWA ecosystem.

Institutional participation in on-chain markets requires custody, private-key security, transaction authorization, and governance to align with existing operating models. Through the Fireblocks integration, funds, asset managers, payment service providers, and exchanges already using Fireblocks can hold, transfer, and manage Pharos-supported assets within their current workspaces and systems, without building separate custody and key-management infrastructure. This means that institutional security, compliance, and treasury teams can participate in the Pharos ecosystem using familiar operating procedures. Configurable transaction policies, including smart contract whitelists and multi-party approvals, help institutions apply existing authorization and governance requirements to eligible transactions.

The first batch of RealFi assets supported by this integration has already been issued on the Pharos blockchain, including tokenized U.S. high-yield credit such as the Raffaello NYLIM HYB Vault (pRNH), the NYLIM Anemoy Fund, Axil Prime Credit (APC) issued on the R25 Protocol, and Pharos's native token $PROS. As of today, assets aggregated on the Pharos RWA platform have surpassed 241.64 million USD (approximately $241.64M), reflecting the diversification of real-world asset strategies and financial products within the ecosystem.

At the custody layer, Fireblocks provides multi-party computation (MPC)-based private-key management and configurable transaction policies, including contract whitelists and multi-party approvals. These controls constrain eligible transactions on Pharos according to each institution's configured policies and permissions. For institutions, the integration provides another pathway to connect on-chain supported assets to their existing digital asset management environments.

For asset issuers and protocols on Pharos, this integration also establishes a connection to a mature institutional-grade digital asset infrastructure platform, providing an additional pathway for supported tokenized assets and bringing custody and transaction management closer to the workflows required for institutions to hold and manage assets. For the broader ecosystem, this includes credit strategies such as APC on the R25 Protocol, connecting tokenized real-world assets and on-chain credit markets with institutional digital asset infrastructure.

This integration also lays the foundation for longer-term collaboration between the two parties. Pharos and Fireblocks plan to work together on market development activities supporting the continued growth of tokenized real-world assets, including coordinated marketing, joint participation in industry events, and targeted introductions that help issuers and protocols reach institutional audiences more effectively. These initiatives are expected to complement the technical integration and gradually contribute to further ecosystem expansion.

"Institutions do not adopt new networks by rebuilding an entire technology stack; they adopt them through the infrastructure they already operate," said Wish Wu, Co-founder and CEO of Pharos. "Integrating Fireblocks brings Pharos into a mature institutional-grade operating environment. Given the supported RealFi assets already on the network, institutions have a practical starting point for accessing and managing real-world value on-chain."
