Someone just asked me, "Explain to me like a retard how the adoption of chainlink will directly benefit the $LINK token in a meaningful way."
Here goes: Key word: *usage*. When $Link goes live with SWIFT (Nov 22, 11,500 global banks), they will have to pay a FEE for every transaction. That's zillions of transactions a day. It's all in the FEES, like tolls crossing a bridge into NYC.
After that, in short time, every other kind of institution or RWA (real world asset) transaction will have to pay a fee to Chainlink, from insurance to shipping, credit cards, real estate, fine art, everything, to the point that Chainlink will be running the world. Sound good?
We're excited to announce that $LINK is now available on @PayPal and @Venmo.
Now hundreds of millions of U.S. users across both platforms can access the Universal Gas Token—the native payment and staking token of the Chainlink Network.

Major upgrade for Chainlink CCIP is now live on mainnet
Here's why this is a GAMECHANGER 👇
With this upgrade, ANYONE can integrate their existing token (or make a new token) with CCIP and access 20+ blockchains.
Permissionlessly.
No whitelisting.
...and this only takes a few minutes. Huge
Talk about a seamless experience.
The secure framework for taking a token cross-chain (powered by CCIP) is called the Cross-Chain Token (CCT) standard.
And there's more.
The CCIP Token Manager just went live as well.
What is that? ...
It's a new UI that walks you through the steps to launch a Cross-Chain Token (CCT).
Launch a new CCT
or upgrade an existing token to become a CCT
in just a few clicks
Watch this .gif to see how easy it is...
And when CCIP adds more chains?? (hint: it is adding more and more every week)
Simple.
just head over to the Token Manager and click to add those chains for your token.
Boom.
Your token is now securely connected across the entire CCIP network.
It's that easy.
