Redefining Speed in Blockchain Markets

• Chainlink Data Streams have entered mainnet early access on the Arbitrum layer two scaling solution for the Ethereum network with leading DeFi protocol GMX already tapping on the all-in-one data solution.
• With Chainlink Data Streams, decentralized applications (dApps) can now have on-demand access to high-frequency oracles that are backed by a decentralized and transparent infrastructure. 

Leading blockchain oracle ecosystem, Chainlink (LINK), has announced the launch of Chainlink Data Streams, an all-in-one data solution for decentralized applications (Dapps)and decentralized financial ecosystem (DeFi) developers. According to the announcement, the Chainlink Data Streams combines low-latency data delivery and automated trade execution in a bid to help the next generation of blockchain-related developers scale in a sustainable and secure ecosystem. Moreover, users can now sign up for the mainnet early access to Chainlink Data Streams.

To kickstart the Chainlink Data Streams usage, the company announced that leading DeFi protocol GMX has integrated with the new system to enhance its performance in offering decentralized perpetual futures exchange.

The recent spike in demand for digital assets and related products from institutional investors and deep-pocketed fund managers has forced DeFi developers to obtain high-quality data from Chainlink. Chainlink co-founder Sergey Nazarov noted;

Data Streams not only enables DeFi (decentralized finance) protocols to support execution speeds and a user experience that rival centralized exchanges, but to do so without compromising on the core Web3 value of fair, transparent, and decentralized infrastructure,

The Chainlink Data Streams are streamlined to bring together data providers from off-chain ecosystems and work together with an on-chain network, whereby Chainlink acts as a verifier of the smart contracts used by the various decentralized applications.

Chainlink Builds to Enable Mainstream Adoption of Blockchain Technology and Digital Assets

The Chainlink network is undeniably an important part of the future growth prospects for blockchain tech, sustainably and securely. The Chainlink team understands that most of the global assets will soon be tokenized on the blockchain, thus requiring an infrastructure that supports seamless access to data at scale. Moreover, the DeFi ecosystem represents only a tiny fraction of the global assets that run into over $1 quadrillion in notional value.

The Chainlink Data Streams come into play to reduce the delay time that DeFi developers experience while trying to offer competitive products. The low-latency oracles provide the Dapps with a continuous stream of real-time data despite being stored off-chain. The automated execution on the Chainlink Data Streams helps ensure near-instant data delivery and decentralized execution.

For instance, the integration of Chainlink Data Streams has enabled GMX protocol to scale in speed without compromising on security. The company explained;

…GMX can now deliver a user experience that competes with centralized exchanges and focus its resources on growing its user base and core product offering,

Market Outlook

The launch of Chainlink Data Streams has coincided with an increased bullish outlook for LINK. According to the latest crypto price oracles, LINK exchanged around $7.66 on Tuesday, up approximately 27 percent in the past four weeks. The upward trajectory in LINK price action is expected to be sustained during the fourth quarter, especially after the recent breakout from a falling macro downward channel.
