Hong Kong, March 13, 2026 — The RealFi inclusive financial Layer 1 project Pharos Network announced the "Smart Partner" list for the RealFi Alliance. Following the initial group focused on core infrastructure and asset issuance, this expansion introduces a set of partners dedicated to research, data, and institutional-grade infrastructure.

This batch of partners includes industry leaders: Dune, Four Pillars, Web3Caff Research, Anchorage Digital, Alchemy, Aquaflux, and Yield Network.

By collaborating with top research companies and data analysis platforms, Pharos is committed to addressing the issue of information asymmetry, which often hinders institutional investors from entering decentralized markets.

The "Smart Partners" of the RealFi Alliance strengthen the ecosystem through a multidimensional approach that integrates in-depth research, thorough transparency, and compliant financial channels. This foundation begins with a commitment to independent research and rigorous academia, bridging the gap between theoretical financial modeling and on-chain execution through academic supervision.

These partners will collectively reinforce the ecosystem through three strategic dimensions:

Four Pillars and Web3Caff Research will focus on in-depth research coverage and market analysis for institutions, bridging the gap between theoretical financial modeling and on-chain execution;

Dune will focus on providing real-time, verifiable dashboards for RWA capital flows to ensure high transparency;

Alchemy, serving as a reputable developer layer, will provide the enterprise-level RPC infrastructure necessary for building high-performance RealFi applications;

Anchorage Digital will provide federally regulated banking and custodial infrastructure;

In capital flow management, Yield Network will act as the on-chain ledger manager for the RealFi ecosystem treasury;

Aquaflux will enhance capital efficiency by optimizing liquidity and yield splits.

Pharos Co-Founder and CEO Wish Wu stated:

Institutional capital is not only seeking high returns; it also pursues highly credible data and verified information. By collaborating with world-class research institutions and data providers, we ensure that every asset on Pharos enjoys the same level of scrutiny and transparency as traditional capital markets.

One of the core goals of this batch of partners is to establish a standardized "RealFi Research Framework." Each cooperating institution will collaborate on thematic reports and on-chain data standards to define how to measure the performance, risk, and compliance of RWA. This will ensure that as Pharos moves towards the mainnet launch phase, its ecosystem is not only technically robust but also maturing in cognition and research systems.
