🔗 Seven stablecoin secrets revealed
Chainlink has outlined seven core capabilities that power stablecoins end-to-end, providing security, transparency, and interoperability across blockchain networks.
Key Infrastructure Components:
- Price Feeds - Real-time, tamper-resistant pricing data onchain
- Proof of Reserve - Near real-time verification of offchain reserves backing
- Proof of Composition - Transparency into specific backing assets and hidden risks
- Secure Mint - Ensures new tokens only mint when reserves exceed supply
Cross-Chain Solutions:
- CCIP Protocol - Secure stablecoin transfers across public and private blockchains
- CCT Standard - Self-serve CCIP integration in minutes
- Automated Compliance Engine - Eligibility checks and rate limits
This comprehensive infrastructure addresses major stablecoin challenges identified in recent reports from Imperial College London and Messari. The platform enables programmatic minting tied to verifiable reserve data and maintains consistent reserve state across participants.
Chainlink's evolution from price feeds to full-stack platform positions it as critical infrastructure for tokenized assets and compliant financial applications.
A recent stablecoin report from Imperial College London (@imperialcollege) highlights Chainlink Proof of Reserve as a key technology for enhancing stablecoin security & transparency: “...UK regulators could draw upon industry-developed mechanisms such as Chainlink’s Proof of
In the latest Pulse report, @MessariCrypto dives into Chainlink's evolution from price feeds to a full-stack platform and set of global standards adopted by top institutions and DeFi protocols to support the full lifecycle of tokenized assets. messari.io/report/chainli… "By
Chainlink isn’t just powering price feeds anymore; it’s becoming the backbone of onchain finance. With $322B+ in tokenized RWAs and major institutions like J.P. Morgan, Fidelity, UBS, and Swift building on its stack, @chainlink is evolving into a full-stack platform for onchain
Chainlink powers stablecoins end-to-end across seven key capabilities that provide security, transparency, and interoperability. 🧵
Lido's wstETH Adopts Chainlink CCIP for Cross-Chain Security
**Lido Finance** is upgrading its Wrapped Staked Ether (wstETH) to become a Cross-Chain Token (CCT) secured by **Chainlink CCIP**. As the largest liquid staking token in the industry, wstETH will now use Chainlink's Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol as its official cross-chain infrastructure across all supported networks. Key benefits include: - Enhanced security for cross-chain transfers - Improved interoperability across DeFi protocols - Greater DAO autonomy for governance This strategic partnership establishes a unified framework for wstETH as it expands to new blockchain networks, positioning Ethereum staking for the multi-chain future. The move represents a significant step toward standardizing secure cross-chain liquid staking infrastructure.
