In its third-quarter review released on Friday, Chainlink Labs detailed several major deals and technology milestones driving renewed investor optimism. The network announced collaborations with interbank message system Swift, U.S. financial system clearing company Depository Trust and Clearing Corp. (DTCC) and European equivalent, Euroclear, alongside a pilot with the U.S. Department of Commerce to bring government data on-chain.
The report also outlined Chainlink’s broader platform vision, evolving from a decentralized oracle provider into a full-stack infrastructure layer for tokenized and real-world assets.
DefiLlama data shows that ChainLink still dominates rival networks in terms of oracle capacity, with $62 billion in total value secured (TVS) equating to 62% of the market. The nearest competitor is Chronicle with $10 billion TVS.
