Chainlink Network Yields Strong Fundamentals
As Coinspeaker has noted, the Chainlink network has grown to be a major enabler of seamless adoption of the multichain web3 ecosystem. The veteran blockchain ecosystem has over the years developed crucial infrastructure to provide smart contract developers with reliable data feeds.
For instance, Chainlink’s data feeds and cross-chain interoperability protocol (CCIP) have been adopted by dozens of companies around the world led by T-Mobile, AAVE, Nexon, GMX, Brazil’s Central Bank, and Swisscom among many others. Consequently, the Chainlink network has so far facilitated more than $17.3 trillion in total transaction value.
In the latest strategic partnership, 21X, a Frankfurt-based fintech company that is developing a blockchain-enabled tokenized exchange, announced that it will tap into the Chainlink network to ensure sustainable and regulated growth.
According to the announcement, 21X’s on-chain trading and settlement system will tap into the Chainlink standard to facilitate interoperable tokenized exchange. Most importantly, the strategic partnership with Chainlink will enable 21X to offer EU-regulated tokenized trading services, which will be unveiled under the supervision of BaFin.
“…We will launch 21X in Q1 2025 on a public permissionless blockchain and look forward to making a variety of tokenized assets accessible to our clients and prospects through CCIP. In addition, Chainlink will provide secure and accurate price data feeds for listed products on 21X,” Max Heinzle, founder and CRO of 21X, noted.
According to Angie Walker, Global Head of Banking and Capital Markets at Chainlink Labs, the Chainlink infrastructure will play a crucial role in the ongoing mainstream adoption of real-world assets (RWA) tokenization.
