Chainlink

Chainlink is the industry standard for building, accessing, and selling oracle services needed to power hybrid smart contracts on any blockchain. Chainlink oracle networks provide smart contracts with a way to reliably connect to any external API and leverage secure offchain computations for enabling feature-rich applications. Chainlink currently secures tens of billions of dollars across DeFi, insurance, gaming, and other major industries, and offers global enterprises and leading data providers a universal gateway to all blockchains.

  1. Data Streams: Provides high-frequency market data and enables automated trades.
  2. VRF (Verifiable Random Function): Ensures secure and tamper-proof random numbers for smart contracts.
  3. Automation: Decentralized network automating smart contracts, ensuring safety and efficiency.
  4. CCIP (Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol): Facilitates secure cross-chain data and token transfers.
  5. Functions: Grants smart contracts access to a trust-minimized compute infrastructure.
  6. Data Feeds: Connects smart contracts with real-world data like asset prices, NFT floor prices, and more, enhancing decentralized applications' functionality and reliability.
