Financial Use Cases for Blockchain & Oracles
summary
Fidelity tests by building: a bitcoin mining operation still operational, a wallet and an experimental cafeteria payment system that sees low usage, and a portfolio app in the App Store. A data product called Sherlock has paying customers and a spun‑out business, Fidelity Digital Assets, provides institutional custody. Claimed benefits include collapsing DTCC settlement from days to minutes and reducing counterparty risk with cryptographic guarantees. Oracles (Chainlink cited) bring trusted real‑world feeds so hybrid smart contracts can execute useful financial logic.
