- Moody’s has expanded its Token Integration Engine to Solana, allowing credit ratings to be embedded directly into tokenised bonds and fixed-income securities.
- The rollout follows earlier testing on Solana and a separate deployment on the Canton Network, extending Moody’s on-chain ratings infrastructure.
- The move comes as tokenisation accelerates across financial markets, with industry forecasts projecting substantial growth over the coming decade.
Solana has become the first major public, permissionless blockchain to support Moody’s Ratings credit assessments in a machine-readable format following a new integration with tokenisation platform Alphaledger. The partnership allows Moody’s ratings to be embedded directly into tokenised fixed-income securities issued on the network.
Issuers using Alphaledger’s platform can now attach Moody’s credit ratings to tokenised bonds and related instruments on-chain. The initiative expands Moody’s Token Integration Engine beyond its earlier deployment on the Canton Network, an institutional-focused blockchain.
The rollout builds on a pilot completed on Solana in 2025 that demonstrated how municipal bond ratings could be linked directly to tokenised securities. Moody’s subsequently expanded its blockchain-based ratings infrastructure with a launch on Canton in March 2026 before extending the technology to Solana’s live network.

The development comes amid rapid growth in the tokenisation sector, where traditional financial assets are represented on blockchain networks. BlackRock, Franklin Templeton and Apollo have already introduced tokenised funds and credit products, while Boston Consulting Group and Ripple estimate the market could reach US$18.9 trillion (AU$26.84 trillion) by 2033.
Moody’s said embedding ratings directly into securities enables investors and applications to obtain credit assessments without relying on external databases or terminals. The company has indicated it intends to continue expanding the Token Integration Engine across additional blockchain networks and financial instruments.
Rajeev Bamra, head of digital economy strategy at Moody’s Ratings, said, “Investors need independent credit analysis wherever they transact, and increasingly, that’s onchain.”
