Chainlink LINK/USD is a decentralized network of nodes, which provides data and information from sources that are outside of the blockchain to smart contracts within the blockchain network through the utilization of oracles.
The LINK token is used in the network in order to compensate the Chainlink Node operators when they get data from external data sources and turn it into a format that is readable on the blockchain.
Chainlink ecosystem developments as a catalyst for growthOn January 3, Chainlink posted how Umee Cross Chain is using tamper-proof data from Price Feed in its decentralized finance (DeFi) offering, putting an emphasis on price feeds and how they are decentralized on multiple levels, which in turn makes them hyper-resistant to data manipulation attacks or any single point of failure.
Additionally, Waterfall DeFi also integrated Chainlink Price Feeds on the Binance Smart Chain, which in turn enabled the novel products to reference tamper-proof data feeds.
On January 4, Chainlink announced that secure off-chain computation is expanding the design space for artists as well as developers, where Joey Roth started using Chainlink VRF to add secure randomness to the Vector Field NFTs which explore the digital and physical divine through on-chain art.
Additionally, we covered how OpenSwap integrated Chainlink VRF to power the NFT validator program.
This growth in the ecosystem has contributed to the growth of value for the LINK token.
