Commerce Department Publishes Official GDP Hashes Across Nine Blockchains

Oracle providers Pyth Network plus Chainlink distribute tamper-evident releases as the agency tests on-chain delivery.

Overview

  • The agency recorded cryptographic hashes of recent quarterly GDP on Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, Avalanche, Arbitrum, Tron, Polygon PoS, Optimism, and Stellar.
  • Coinbase, Kraken, and Gemini helped facilitate the on-chain publication as part of the proof-of-concept rollout.
  • PYTH rallied roughly 60% with a sharp volume spike following the government’s selection of Pyth Network as a distribution partner.
  • Officials indicated the pilot could expand to additional datasets beyond GDP, with governance and timelines still to be finalized.
  • According to new reporting, Chainlink is publishing six BEA indicators across ten chains while Pyth begins by posting five years of quarterly GDP, with broader coverage expected.
