Decentralized oracleoracle provider Chainlink is expanding beyond the Ethereum blockchain, which it’s targeted up to now. The startup’s solution for secure, transparent and accurate data feeds has now been adopted by blockchain interoperability platform Polkadot, according to an announcement on Tuesday.
Developers building on the Polkadot protocol will now be able to rely on Chainlink’s oracles to securely access “virtually any external, real-world resource,” the announcement said.
Polkadot plans to use Chainlink’s decentralized oracles for its “parachain” technology, which acts as a bridge between different blockchains. Oracle-sourced data will provide key information such pricing feeds and will be used to verify identity-based digital signatures, according to the announcement.
Initially, the oracle technology is being integrated for Substrate, Polkadot’s blockchain framework. Chainlink’s oracles will roll out to all Polkadot’s Substrate-based chains. Polkadot is also working to introduce it on its experimental network, Kusama, and eventually the whole network, said the announcement.
Launched in 2016 by Ethereum co-founder Gavin Wood, Polkadot becomes the first non-Ethereum blockchain platform to integrate Chainlink. The oracle provider is fast diversifying its reach, and has been working with large enterprises, such as Google and Swift.
Out of all the cryptocurrency projects that made rapid progress in 2019, Chainlink (LINK) has emerged as one of the clear leaders. Not only has the decentralized oracle provider outperformed the entire altcoin market, it’s even outpaced Bitcoin on a number of occasions, and many investors are confident that 2020 will bring further gains. But that’s not the news that most excites Chainlink CEO Sergey Nazarov. Speaking to Decrypt, he highlighted three key reasons why Chainlink will continue to...
Most recently, Chainlink announced a raft of integrations in Decentralized Finance (DeFi) applications, including no-collateral loan company Aave. Its oracle networks are primarily being used to provide accurate price feeds from off-chain sources.
But last Friday saw Chainlink experience a serious problem for the first time. An error occurred with a price feed, allowing some eagle-eyed users to make around $40,000 worth of profits within a short period of time.
The XAG/USD Chainlink price feed was incorrect for over 6 hours yesterday. Someone made $6.8k in profit due to this error. https://t.co/yP9Kr6iEr2

The feed registered the incorrect price for silver-to-USD (XAG/USD) on Synthetix, a platform for trading Ethereum-based DeFi derivatives, which uses price feeds from Chainlink.
In a blog post, published after the event, Chainlink asserted that the issue was not with the oracle technology, but was the result of human error. Node operators servicing the XAG/USD oracles incorrectly requested a price for gold rather than silver, the oracle provider explained.
Chainlink has offered to cover the losses incurred by Synthetix users. It added that it was working to ensure that the issue didn’t arise again.
Cryptocurrencies have failed to deliver on their promises, cryptography pioneer Adi Shamir suggested at the RSA Conference in San Francisco, California, on Tuesday. "My personal opinion is that the world would have been better without cryptocurrencies," he told attendees of an expert panel at the conference, per an initial report by The Register. Shamir, co-inventor of the RSA encryption algorithm, was unequivocal about his position. While praising Satoshi Nakamoto's seminal whitepaper on Bitco...
Bitcoin developers are debating a proposal that could fundamentally change what the alpha crypto and network is used for, dividing the community between those who see it as necessary progress and others who fear it threatens Bitcoin's core purpose. At issue is a technical change called "removing OP_RETURN limits." If approved, it would allow people to store much larger amounts of non-financial data directly on the Bitcoin blockchain, for use in things like text and images. The issue Currently, B...
Scroll said Monday it has become the first Ethereum Layer 2 using zero-knowledge proofs to reach a critical development stage, allowing users to post transactions without relying on a central operator. In a post to X, Scroll touted its advances in security, scalability, and decentralization after claiming the project had reached “Stage 1” in its development. “While Scroll has always had a fully functional zk proof system, users previously had to trust the centralized sequencer to avoid censorshi...
