Bridgetower brings an Arizona mining project on-chain
Bridgetower, based in Boise, is a blockchain and AI infrastructure company. It selected Chainlink to support tokenization for the DOM X Arizona copper-gold project.
The project carries an announced value of $11 billion. Bridgetower also said the broader pipeline covers about $25 billion in natural resources, energy, and metals.

Bridgetower CEO Cory Pugh described the launch as a move into production. He said, “Today’s live deployment marks a major step forward in how tokenized asset markets reach institutional scale.”
Chainlink tools handle data, checks, and settlement
The tokenization platform uses several Chainlink products. These include CCIP, Proof of Reserve, NAVLink, and the Chainlink Runtime Environment.
CCIP supports cross-chain connectivity and settlement. Proof of Reserve helps confirm backing data, while NAVLink supports on-chain valuation updates.
Chainlink said its Runtime Environment acts as the coordination layer. It manages reserve checks, valuation updates, compliance logic, and settlement tasks.
This setup gives Bridgetower a full tokenization workflow. As a result, the company can track assets and move data across blockchain networks.
Platform adds payments, compliance, and privacy features
Chainlink said investors can use traditional and digital payment rails. Iron, a MoonPay company, handles those payment flows on the platform.
The system also includes identity checks and anti-money laundering controls. These checks are built into the investor onboarding process.
Bridgetower was an early user of Chainlink’s Runtime Environment in 2025. Since then, it has moved from early testing to a live tokenized security deployment.
Chainlink Labs Chief Business Officer Johann Eid said the launch shows production use. He said, “All the world’s largest financial institutions are watching tokenization right now.”
The two companies are also working on privacy-preserving issuance. They said ownership data can remain confidential while compliance checks stay active on-chain.
