NEW: Leading crypto exchange @krakenfx is deprecating its legacy cross-chain provider and migrates to Chainlink CCIP.

Starting with kBTC, all current and future Kraken Wrapped Assets will use CCIP for secure distribution across blockchains and global markets.

In a multichain world, definitive ownership won’t live on a single chain. An off-chain source of truth is essential. DTCC bridges legacy market infrastructure with emerging blockchain models, bringing deep liquidity to blockchain rails and innovation to TradFi.

It’s a story of vision, execution, and building a durable, indispensable platform. Huge respect for Sergey & the team's long-term focus. What @bgilbert & @djrosent would call a 'foundational company of an era'. #Chainlink #AcquiredFM $LINK

@AcquiredFM 4/ Beyond Oracles -> A Platform: They didn't stop. With CCIP, Chainlink is becoming the secure TCP/IP for value, connecting all blockchains. This isn't a feature; it's foundational infrastructure for the next generation of the internet.

Bitcoin started it.
Ethereum expanded it.

@solana , @Polkadot , @avax , @Cardano
built their own islands.

@jpmorgan , @OndoFinance, @awscloud, @Oracle, @swiftcommunity formed their own worlds.

But none of it connects.
None of it scales.
None of it works...
without @Chainlink

The universal bridge. 🌐

Chainlink is probably the most underrated altcoin on the market right now:

• Proof of Bill
• SVR
• CCIP

$LINK is positioned to become the next VISA of blockchain and tradi.

In 2024, Chainlink solidified its position as the standard for verifiable data and cross-chain interoperability in DeFi, while also working with the world's largest financial institutions and governments on adopting blockchain technology.

In 2025, we'll continue to build novel solutions for DeFi and expand Chainlink's market share, further the expansion into banking and capital markets by enabling high-quality institutional use cases, introduce the Chainlink Runtime Environment (CRE) to a broader array of users, and more.

@SergeyNazarov provides his insights into the major milestones of 2024 and a look ahead for 2025:

[Sergey Nazarov @SergeyNazarov]

I think the technical term to describe this situation is "now we're cooking with gas"

I wonder what happens when the world's largest financial institutions decide to go on-chain because being on-chain becomes a "national priority".

Seems likely they will need a secure and reliable way to utilize various kinds of data on-chain to build their financial products. I can also see them needing a reliable way to interconnect all their chains to transact in a secure, compliant and efficient manner accepted by regulators. Something like what TCP/IP does for the internet, but built to handle cross-chain transactions and able to work for institutional systems/use cases.

It might also be nice if they had a simple development environment from which to manage all this complexity, something like a runtime environment that makes it easy to rebuild all their existing financial products and transactional flows on-chain. If that development environment was already integrated with their existing standards like Swift and their existing CSDs like DTCC, that would make it a lot simpler for them. If only there was a single platform where they could get all of these key building blocks to work together in a secure way...

Exciting times ahead.
