Cronos collaborates with Amazon AWS to enhance tokenization and drive a $10B RWA initiative

Cronos, a blockchain ecosystem backed by Crypto.com, has inked a deal with Amazon Web Services (AWS), the leading cloud computing platform, to open up its data, infrastructure, and AI stack to builders and institutions, according to a Tuesday statement.

As part of the collaboration, Cronos data will be integrated into AWS Public Blockchain Data, which offers scalable access to large datasets from blockchain networks, helping businesses and developers build blockchain-based solutions efficiently and without infrastructure overhead.

The integration of Cronos data is expected to enable trusted, reporting-ready pipelines that support AI agents, advanced analytics, and institutional reporting workflows.

The agreement is also aimed at supporting the Cronos ecosystem. As noted by the team, selected Cronos builders will receive up to $100,000 in AWS credits per startup to develop tokenization pilots, RWA platforms, DeFi protocols, and AI applications.

AWS said in a statement that its collaboration with Cronos combines cloud-grade security with on-chain innovation, creating a foundation for scalable, compliant tokenization platforms.

“Financial institutions require robust, secure, and compliant technology solutions as they explore innovative approaches to asset tokenization,” AWS commented. “By leveraging AWS’s robust 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.”

Mirko Zhao of Cronos Labs believes tokenization and real-world assets will drive the next wave of blockchain adoption.

“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,” he stated. “Building on AWS extends this foundation, giving institutions a secure, scalable pathway to bridge traditional and decentralized finance.”

Cronos’ collaboration with AWS is a key step in executing its 2025–2026 roadmap, which focuses on institutional-grade tokenization across multiple asset classes.

With a platform designed to support everything from traditional securities to real estate, and recent performance gains driving a surge in network activity, Cronos aims to onboard 20 million users and support $10B in tokenized assets by 2026.

Cronos currently ranks among the top 15 blockchain ecosystems with over $6 billion in user assets and has processed more than 100 million transactions since launch, as noted by the team.
