Chainlink Build member @SpaceandTimeDB has made SXT a Cross-Chain Token (CCT), enabling it to be natively transferred across chains via Chainlink CCIP.

Space and Time has also adopted Chainlink Price Feeds to support secure DeFi markets around SXT.

“The industry needs a common identity language—one that bridges traditional finance and digital assets.”

@marketsmedia explores why onchain verifiable identity is critical to digital assets, and how @GLEIF and Chainlink are helping make it possible ↓

Chainlink Build member @mindnetwork_xyz has adopted the Cross-Chain Token (CCT) standard for its native token FHE on @solana.

Powered by CCIP, FHE is now transferable across @arbitrum, @base, @BNBChain, @ethereum, and Solana.

Built to withstand what others can’t.

Cross-chain by Chainlink.

NEW REPORT:

Explore insights from @GLEIF on how standards for organizational identity and automated compliance can “increase the trust and integrity of financial markets globally.”

https://t.co/Zp2SS0Itl3

Since 2008, the introduction of global identity standards has significantly increased the integrity of financial markets.

However, today’s identity systems remain highly fragmented—imposing high costs, slowing onboarding, and creating friction between regulatory compliance and data protection:

• 33% of compliance budgets are spent on KYC
• $2,598 is the average onboarding cost per client
• 67% of banks and 74% of asset managers lost clients due to onboarding delays

Verifiable onchain identity is essential for reducing these inefficiencies by streamlining processes on a blockchain-based format, paving the way for widespread digital asset adoption.

The report highlights how GLEIF and Chainlink can help scale digital asset adoption by bringing globally recognized and regulatory overseen identity standards into the blockchain era. As Larry Fink highlighted in BlackRock’s 2025 Annual Chairman’s Letter to Investors:

“If we're serious about building an efficient and accessible financial system, championing tokenization alone won't suffice. We must solve digital verification, too.”

⬡ Chainlink Adoption Update ⬡

Kings College London (@KingsCollegeLon) published a new working paper by Dr. Rhys Bidder, Deputy Director at the Qatar Centre for Global Banking and Finance, exploring the path forward for stablecoins to fulfill their global potential.

Chainlink is highlighted for its privacy-preserving functionality, which is critical for institutional adoption:

“These patterns are adopted in the Chainlink CCIP Private Transaction model and DECO technology, with a recent example of ANZ Bank and ADDX using CCIP Private Transactions to settle tokenized commercial paper across two private blockchains under the Monetary Authority of Singapore’s (MAS) Project Guardian, maintaining confidentiality while meeting regulatory requirements for cross-border institutional finance.”

The paper also highlights how Chainlink CCIP and Proof of Reserve are already addressing core infrastructure challenges by enabling secure cross-chain transfers and verifiable reserve transparency—key pillars for stablecoins to become programmable, global-scale digital money.

Chainlink Total Value Secured (TVS) is experiencing significant growth, according to data from @DefiLlama.

In May alone, Chainlink TVS (incl. borrows) surged by over 50% to over $65B+, driven by several major integrations, including:

• Becoming the official data oracle for TRON (@trondao), with $5.5B+ in DeFi TVL on TRON now secured by Chainlink
• Integration by @KaminoFinance, the largest DeFi lending protocol on @solana with $2B+ TVL
• $2.7B+ TVL Solana DeFi protocol @JupiterExchange adopting Data Streams in its perp markets
• Integrations with @CIAN_protocol ($900M+ TVL) and more
