"We don't actually want chains maximizing for revenue today. They should be maximizing for market share and embeddedness [in the future]." Matt Hougan

Students, builders, developers and community members all got together yesterday for a special Chainlink collaboration with Princeton Blockchain Club to learn about the core pillars of Chainlink at scale! Looks like the next Chainlink Hackathon is going to have some serious competition

Tanaka Openτensor Foundaτion x.com/ChainLinkGod/s… Chainlink is S tier AI. Name a single other AI protocol that has completed phase 1 and phase 2 (with movement towards production) with 26 of the largest institutions in the world actually using them for a real-world AI use-case of significant value.

Securitization 2.0 = the securitization of basically everything that can be tokenized and because it will be powered by Chainlink & blockchains, securitization can now be done without major systemic risks

The “institutions are coming” phase is about to be over. They’re here, or arriving shortly. Countless are already in crypto. And another big batch will be in the next 6 months. Felt clear at Digital Asset Summit 2026 this is all happening before year end.

It starts with establishing a higher standard of cryptographic truth, with verifiable chain-of-custody for digital facts.

super-linear staking impact is underrated and underhyped

Chainlink solves more problems than $BTC or $ETH. $LINK will claim its place in the top 3. Don't get me started on the rest.

Millions ✔️ Billions ✔️ Trillions ✔️ Quadrillions next.

When intelligence is cheap, the bottleneck isn’t execution it’s verification. Proving that an automated decision was authorized, compliant and accountable. Crypto’s provenance and chain of custody primitives aren’t a nice-to-have here. They’re the infrastructure layer that makes

Adam “Link” Smith The tokenomics were always designed to help drive the security and reliability of the network while economically incentivizing good NOP’s, pricing out bad actors with insanely high costs and minimal negative impact to the network. SLS with NOP’s having collateralized reputation

JUST IN: Aave has officially adopted Chainlink SVR on Arbitrum & Base in a near-unanimous vote to increase DAO revenue. This development builds upon Aave’s successful use of SVR on Ethereum, which has already recaptured $16.7M+ in non-toxic liquidation MEV.

🚨 NEW: Aave, the largest DeFi protocol with $40B+ in net deposits, has expanded its adoption of Chainlink SVR to new chains Aave is now using SVR to recapture non-toxic liquidation MEV on Ethereum and L2 networks Base and Arbitrum Since integrating a year ago, Aave’s use

Chainlink SVR has a 99%+ market share in the oracle value recapture space No, that’s not a typo Chainlink dominates market share by 1) having a killer product/eng team who build the most secure/reliable products that solve real problems and 2) having a killer GTM/BD team

imagine how much revenue SVR will generate once many trillions of dollars are in Aave and other DeFi protocols SVR is already a money printer and the vast majority of wealth hasn’t even touched DeFi yet

Chainlink economics are evolving to create a virtuous flywheel of compounding security and value capture Chainlink economics gud
