🚨DeFi is now at a new all-time high with 300B+ in Total Value Locked (TVL). From the beginning, Chainlink has played the critical role of accelerating DeFi’s growth by pioneering the decentralized oracle platform that enables the launch of advanced DeFi applications like @aave. Before Chainlink, DeFi was exposed to the risks of oracle exploits and centralized infra, limiting the ecosystem’s ability to safely scale. Chainlink’s decentralized oracle network infrastructure resolved these risks and unlocked the foundation for core financial primitives to be brought onchain, ranging from lending and borrowing to derivatives and much more. Six years after Chainlink’s mainnet launch, the DeFi economy now consists of hundreds of dApps across dozens of blockchains securing hundreds of billions of dollars in real value, backed by proven blockchain and oracle network infrastructure. Fueling the growth of DeFi, Chainlink has enabled tens of trillions of value and is now the standard for data, cross-chain, compliance, privacy, legacy system connectivity, and onchain/offchain orchestration—the only unified platform that encompasses every one of these services. Today, Chainlink is actively bringing the world’s largest financial institutions onchain, building toward a future where DeFi TVL is measured not in the billions, but in the trillions.
