  1. Moody’s Tests Chainlink for Multi-Chain Credit Rating Delivery
  2. Moody's and Chainlink Test Simultaneous Blockchain Rating Pilot — this brief

Moody's and Chainlink conducted a pilot that sent the same stand-in ratings to several blockchains at once, according to Unchained. The approach departs from Moody's earlier process of adding its ratings engine to one blockchain at a time.

The trial was conducted only on test networks and did not produce actual ratings actions. Unchained described the exercise as a test of sending identical placeholder ratings to multiple chains in a single pass; no specific blockchains or technical performance results were disclosed in the supplied coverage.

As the only outlet reporting the development, Unchained provides no independent corroboration or competing figures. The available account nevertheless distinguishes the experiment from operational use: the ratings were stand-ins, the networks were test environments, and no real credit-rating actions occurred. No other coverage was supplied to confirm additional implementation details or results.

Chainlink's token was priced at $10.32 at the time of the market snapshot, down 2.26% over 24 hours and 7.27% over seven days. Its market capitalization stood at $7.91 billion. The broader crypto market was flat at $2.52 trillion, while Bitcoin fell 0.83% over 24 hours and the Fear & Greed index registered 29, corresponding to Fear. The trial itself therefore came amid a subdued market backdrop rather than a broad crypto rally.
