StaFi Protocol integrates Chainlink on multiple chains for cross-chain liquid staking

**Chainlink now supports XPL**, the native token of Plasma Foundation's new layer-1 blockchain. Key developments: - XPL/USD data streams available for integration - Enables DeFi market development across **40+ chains** - Plasma blockchain designed for **high-performance stablecoin** operations Chainlink's full suite launched on Plasma day one: - Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP) - Data Streams - Data Feeds This integration allows developers to build secure, efficient DeFi applications using XPL token data across multiple blockchain networks.

**Swift and Chainlink leaders discuss digital asset infrastructure** Swift's Chief Innovation Officer Tom Zschach and Chainlink's Sergey Nazarov spoke at The Chainlink Forum in NYC about: - **Interoperability** in capital markets - Their **long-standing collaboration** to build infrastructure for digital asset markets - **Future developments** in the digital asset industry The discussion focused on scaling digital asset markets through critical infrastructure partnerships between traditional finance and blockchain technology.

**Chainlink's Smart Value Recapture (SVR) has officially recaptured over $1.5M in non-toxic liquidation MEV**, with approximately $400K captured in just the past week. **Key Performance Metrics:** - Recapture rate averaging ~80% over the past month - New SVR-enabled searchers continue joining the network - Focus on returning more value to DeFi protocols **What is SVR?** SVR is a novel oracle solution that enables DeFi protocols to recapture oracle-related MEV and establish new revenue streams. The system supports the long-term economic sustainability of the Chainlink Network while making DeFi more efficient. **Partnership Impact** The milestone was achieved through collaboration with Aave, BGD Labs, and the broader Aave community, demonstrating how innovative oracle infrastructure can make DeFi more sustainable. This represents a significant step forward in **oracle-related MEV recapture technology** and DeFi protocol revenue optimization.

**Solstice** has launched its **USX stablecoin** with over **$150M in TVL**, integrating Chainlink's oracle infrastructure on Solana. **Key integrations include:** - Chainlink CCIP for institutional-grade interoperability - Data Streams for sub-second, tamper-proof market data - Proof of Reserve for transparent collateral verification This partnership enables **real-time price feeds** and **cross-chain functionality** for the new stablecoin, leveraging Chainlink's proven oracle network that secures over $89B in total value. The collaboration represents another major integration on Solana following Chainlink's expansion to the network, which has already unlocked $19B+ in bridged asset value through CCIP.

**Crypto Finance**, a Deutsche Börse subsidiary serving institutional clients, has integrated **Chainlink Proof of Reserve** in production. The integration enables **direct verification** of assets backing nxtAssets' physically-backed Bitcoin and Ethereum ETPs. Reserve data is orchestrated through Chainlink Runtime Environment and published on Arbitrum. **Key benefits:** - Public verification of ETP reserves on Chainlink's data feed page - Shared transparency across issuers, custodians, and exchanges - Real-time on-chain asset backing verification This follows recent Chainlink adoptions by 21X (EU's first regulated on-chain exchange) and partnerships with Polymarket for prediction markets. The move strengthens institutional trust in digital asset products through verifiable on-chain data.
