Cronos has announced a partnership with Amazon Web Services (AWS) on September 30, 2025, to support tokenization and real-world assets.
According to the press release, the deal aims to give developers better access to Cronos blockchain data and tools through AWS. It will also help institutions build finance applications on a secure and compliant infrastructure.
The collaboration has three main points. First, Cronos data will be shared through AWS Public Blockchain. This will make it easier for developers and financial institutions to run analytics and prepare reports. It also provides reliable information for compliance needs.
Secondly, AWS will offer up to $100,000 in credits to select startups in the Cronos ecosystem. This will allow new teams to cut costs while building tokenization, DeFi, and AI applications.
Thirdly, developers will gain access to AWS AI tools such as Amazon Bedrock, which can support advanced applications on Cronos.
Just recently, Cronos shared its 2025–2026 roadmap, which highlights its push into tokenization. The plan includes a platform designed for equities, funds, commodities, insurance, forex, and real estate.
The network has already improved performance with faster block times, lower gas fees, and higher transaction volumes. Cronos hopes these upgrades will help it reach $10 billion in tokenized assets and 20 million users by 2026.
Mirko Zhao, Head of Cronos Labs, said: “The next growth cycle will be defined by tokenization and real-world assets. Cronos is uniquely positioned with distribution through Crypto.com, liquidity anchored in CRO and a roadmap that ties tokenization and AI into one interoperable system. Building on AWS extends this foundation, giving institutions a secure, scalable pathway to bridge traditional and decentralized finance.”
An AWS spokesperson added, “Financial institutions require robust, secure, and compliant technology solutions as they explore innovative approaches to asset tokenization. By leveraging AWS’s security controls and compliance frameworks alongside Cronos’s blockchain technology, we’re enabling both innovative startups and established institutions to build tokenization solutions that meet the highest standards of security and regulatory requirements.”
This partnership reflects a larger trend in 2025 where cloud and blockchain providers are joining forces to help institutions explore tokenized finance.
