Data Integrations
Decentralized storage network @Filecoin will integrate Chainlink oracles to create an end-to-end Web 3.0 development stack, enabling bidirectional communication between Filecoin and smart contracts for novel use cases like NFT insurance and DataDAOs.
@FlexaHQ is using Chainlink Price Feeds on mainnet for tamperproof, fair market exchange rates on each of the digital dollars, tokens, & cryptocurrencies that the Flexa payment network supports at more than 40,000 retail locations across the US & Canada.
@SushiSwap's new lending and margin trading platform Kashi has integrated Chainlink Price Feeds to secure isolated token lending pairs, providing DeFi users a tamper-resistant, one-click leverage trading solution for a wide variety of tokens.
We’re excited to award a grant to @hack_bg to natively integrate Chainlink on @terra_money. This will enable developers in the Terra ecosystem to build high-throughput smart contracts that leverage Chainlink oracles to securely access off-chain resources.
@HavenXHV is using a new Chainlink Price Feed to power their latest private, algorithmic stablecoin xCNY, pegged to the Chinese Yuan. Chainlink price data ensures that when users burn XHV, they mint the fair market value of xCNY in return and vice versa.
Blockchain-based learning platform @Official_Metis will use Chainlink oracles to securely access off-chain educational data, enabling student attendance incentive programs, robust teacher quality rankings, and dynamic NFTs that offer tutor profit-sharing.
Decentralized lending protocol @LendHubDefi will integrate Chainlink Price Feeds natively on @HECO_Chain to ensure that all loans are issued and liquidated in accordance with aggregated, tamper-proof, volume-adjusted price feeds reflective of global markets.
DeFi liquidity protocol @AI_Autonio will integrate Chainlink oracles to access asset prices and fetch AI-driven analytics. This data will power their NIOX Suite, an ecosystem of on-chain trading tools & infrastructure including Intelligent Market Makers.
@FilDAFinance integrates Chainlink on mainnet to price assets used within its decentralized lending platform. As a blockchain agnostic oracle network, Chainlink's high-quality data is able to be consumed by FilDA at the native speed & cost of @heco_chain.
New Signed-Data Oracles
- Blue Antoinette to Launch a Chainlink Node to Make Global Tax Solutions Available to Smart Contracts
Blue Antoinette to launch its own Chainlink node to supply global tax data on-chain. This enables automated on-chain tax solutions, such as for organizations to calculate sales and VAT tax when selling products via public blockchains and accepting crypto.
Data provider @GenesisVol has launched their own Chainlink node on mainnet to supply signed, institutional-grade crypto options and futures analytics data on-chain, enabling the creation of new types of DeFi derivatives, asset management products, & more.
VRF Integrations
Cross-platform NFT marketplace @NFTTrader will integrate Chainlink VRF to assign provably rare properties to NFTs in their new Trade Squads game. Chainlink VRF generates specific NFT traits & rarity classes that are verifiably unpredictable & tamperproof.
Art experiment Project Mahin by @artbyma is raising breast cancer awareness by using Chainlink VRF to randomly update NFTs, reflecting the 1-in-8 odds of a woman developing breast cancer in her lifetime. All royalties support research at the @BreastCancerNow charity.
Generative NFT project @rarepizzas has integrated Chainlink VRF to mint 10,000 digital pizzas with provably rare attributes and a verifiably random distribution. As a community-driven project, the digital pizza NFTs are a celebration of Bitcoin Pizza Day.
What’s New for Developers 🛠
Whether you're building rare NFTs, blockchain games, or a decentralized lottery, your smart contract needs a tamper-proof source of randomness. Learn how to securely generate a verifiably random number in your dApp today with the Chainlink VRF docs.
As DeFi expands its support for derivatives markets, Chainlink services this growth by launching more traditional financial market data on-chain like secure FX Rates. Integrate the OCR-capable CHF/USD FX Rate into your dApp today, already used by @synthetix_io & @Jarvis_Network
Chainlink provides ready-made price oracle solutions so DeFi developers can securely build new dApps that rely on tamper-proof price reference data. Easily integrate the MLN/ETH Chainlink Price Feed into your smart contract today, already used and supported by @enzymefinance.
