Pharos Network Integrates Fireblocks for Institutional-Grade Custody Workflow for RealFi Assets

Assets supported by Pharos will enter the existing custody environment of Fireblocks clients, allowing institutions to manage eligible assets under security policies, transaction controls, and approval processes.

Written by: Pharos Network

Pharos Network, a value discovery layer for the agent economy and RealFi, announced today the completion of its integration with Fireblocks, which will serve as its custody technology provider. Fireblocks is a leading platform for financial institutions to build on-chain financial operations. Through this integration, assets supported by Pharos will enter the existing custody environment of Fireblocks clients, allowing institutions to manage eligible assets under security policies, transaction controls, and approval processes. The two parties will also collaborate on joint marketing efforts around RWA ecosystem growth.

Institutional participation in the on-chain market requires custody, private key security, transaction authorization, and governance that align with their existing operational models. With the integration of Fireblocks, funds, asset management institutions, payment service providers, and exchanges already using Fireblocks can hold, transfer, and manage Pharos-supported assets within their current workspace and systems without the need to establish separate custody and key management infrastructure. This means that the security, compliance, and treasury teams of institutions can participate in the Pharos ecosystem using familiar operational processes. Configurable trading strategies, including smart contract whitelisting and multi-party approvals, help institutions apply their 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 Raffaello NYLIM HYB Vault (pRNH), NYLIM Anemoy Fund, Axil Prime Credit (APC) issued based on the R25 Protocol, and the native Pharos token $PROS. As of today, the aggregated asset scale on the Pharos RWA platform has surpassed $241.64 million, reflecting the diverse development 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 trading strategies, including contract whitelisting and multi-party approvals. These control mechanisms constrain eligible transactions on Pharos based on the strategies and permissions already configured by each institution. For institutions, the integration provides another channel to access on-chain supported assets within their existing digital asset management environment.

For asset issuers and protocols on Pharos, this integration also opens up a connection with a mature institutional-grade digital asset infrastructure platform, providing an additional access path 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 like APC on the R25 Protocol, connecting tokenized real-world assets with the on-chain credit market and institutional digital asset infrastructure.

This integration also lays the foundation for longer-term collaboration between the two parties. Pharos and Fireblocks plan to cooperate on market expansion activities that support the continued growth of 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 technological integration and gradually contribute to the further expansion of the ecosystem.

"Institutions will not connect to new networks by rebuilding a technology stack; they adopt through the infrastructure they already have in place," said Wish Wu, co-founder and CEO of Pharos. "Integrating Fireblocks brings Pharos into a mature institutional operating environment. Given the existing supported RealFi assets on the network, institutions have a pragmatic starting point to access and manage real-world value on-chain."
