Newton’s mainnet beta is live. RedStone provides the verified price data behind its policy enforcement. Newton is an authorization layer for onchain transactions. It’s a policy engine that checks conditions before a transaction settles and only lets compliant ones through. RedStone supplies the verified price and market data those policies check against.
TL;DR
- Newton’s mainnet beta is live with RedStone and Credora named as launch data partners.
- Newton is an authorization layer for onchain transactions: a policy engine that evaluates conditions before a transaction settles and only lets compliant transactions through.
- A Newton Policy can read different kinds of data. RedStone provides the price and market-data layer: source-verified, manipulation-resistant feeds. A policy is only as good as the data it checks against.
- Credora, the Risk Intelligence layer of the RedStone Stack, provides the risk ratings that Newton’s policies can read.
- The first use case is a transaction-time policy gating inside Vaults, blocking or liquidating a position automatically when the data crosses a threshold.
Policy Enforced at the Transaction
Newton has entered mainnet beta, with RedStone and Credora as launch data partners. The product at the center of the launch is Vaults: dynamic, policy-gated launches where a curator’s rules are enforced onchain before a transaction goes through.
Those rules live in a Newton Policy, which can evaluate several conditions, drawing on different data sources for different checks.
RedStone supplies the price and market data and Credora supplies the risk rating. Newton composes them into a single enforceable decision.
A curator sets a policy: if the price of the collateral, or the Credora risk rating on a position, crosses a threshold the curator defines, the position is blocked or liquidated automatically. Newton evaluates the condition before the transaction settles, enforces the outcome onchain, and produces a verifiable receipt.
The policy runs at the transaction, not as deposit-side identity screening or continuous background monitoring.
RedStone: Reliable Data Layer for Policy Enforcement
The data underneath Newton’s enforcement is what gives the enforcement its meaning. A policy is only as strong as the price it reads, and that’s where RedStone comes in.
When a policy gates a transaction based on market data, the quality of the price feed determines whether the decision holds. Continuously live and manipulation-resistant data is what lets a contract act on a number with confidence.
This is the data RedStone is built to deliver: feeds that carry asset-specific methodologies, Proof of Reserve (PoR) data where it applies, and market-aware pricing that reflects real liquidity.
That precision matters most exactly for the assets a curator’s policy is watching. Liquid staking tokens, restaking assets, and yield-bearing collateral need more than simple spot pricing, and are exactly what RedStone’s methodologies are built to price accurately.
Across all mission-critical integrations to date, RedStone has recorded 0 mispricing events across 110+ chains.
“A policy is only as strong as the data behind it. Credora and RedStone bring price data, risk ratings, and collateral intelligence into Newton’s policies, so curators can enforce risk with the same confidence they track market prices.” Mike Massari, Head of Partnerships at RedStone
Credora: The Risk Layer
Credora is the Risk Intelligence layer of the RedStone Stack, providing real-time, model-driven risk ratings that sit on the same data infrastructure as the price feeds.
Market Data and Risk Intelligence are distinct categories, each useful on its own. A policy can draw on one, the other, or both.
Newton makes both available as policy inputs: RedStone prices the collateral, Credora rates it, and when a policy uses both, Newton enforces them at the moment a transaction would clear.

About Newton
Newton Protocol is the authorization layer for onchain transactions. Just as card networks authorize payments before settlement, Newton authorizes transactions against programmable compliance and risk policies that are enforced directly into smart contracts before they execute. Built on a decentralized operator network secured through EigenLayer restaking, Newton provides verifiable, privacy-preserving enforcement for stablecoins, RWAs, DeFi, and AI agents.
