During SmartCon 2025, Chainlink Co-Founder Sergey Nazarov delivered a keynote speech announcing the launch of the Chainlink Runtime Environment and introducing Chainlink Confidential Compute, both enabling a new generation of infrastructure that enables institutions to build secure, compliant, and privacy-preserving onchain applications, further expanding the capabilities of the Chainlink platform which already secures the majority of DeFi and is trusted by leading financial institutions globally.
Chainlink is the industry-standard oracle platform bringing the capital markets onchain and powering the majority of decentralized finance (DeFi). The Chainlink stack provides the essential data, interoperability, compliance, and privacy standards needed to power advanced blockchain use cases for institutional tokenized assets, lending, payments, stablecoins, and more. Since inventing decentralized oracle networks, Chainlink has enabled tens of trillions in transaction value and now secures the vast majority of DeFi.
Many of the world’s largest financial services institutions have also adopted Chainlink’s standards and infrastructure, including Swift, Euroclear, Mastercard, Fidelity International, UBS, ANZ, and top protocols such as Aave, GMX, Lido, and many others. Chainlink leverages a novel fee model where offchain and onchain revenue from enterprise adoption is converted to LINK tokens and stored in a strategic Chainlink Reserve. Learn more at chain.link.
