Summary from the TLDR Crypto newsletter

S&P Global has partnered with Chainlink to publish its Stablecoin Stability Assessments (SSAs) directly onchain, enabling DeFi protocols to integrate real-time risk data into smart contracts. The ratings evaluate stablecoins on factors like asset quality, governance, redeemability, and liquidity, helping institutional users assess fiat-backed stability. The SSAs will debut on Base, Coinbase's Ethereum Layer 2, before expanding to other networks. Chainlink co-founder Sergey Nazarov said the integration brings S&P's trusted framework into digital markets, advancing transparency and compliance as stablecoin adoption scales.
