Binance Smart Chain Integrates ChainLink Oracles, Ventures into DeFi

Quick take:

  • The Binance Smart Chain has integrated ChainLink’s Oracle solutions.
  • Real-time data from ChainLink will be used to build DeFi applications on the Binance Chain.
  • This move is beneficial to both projects as well as the value of Binance Coin (BNB) and LINK.  

Moments ago, the CEO of Binance, Changpeng Zhao, tweeted the entry of Binance into Decentralized Finance while simultaneously announcing the integration of ChainLink’s Oracle solutions into the Binance Smart Chain. The tweet by CZ can be found below.

Furthermore, the announcement of the ChainLink integration explained that developers using the Binance Smart Chain can now access real-world data via ChainLink in a secure manner. This means that they can now build smart contract applications with reliable data feeds courtesy of ChainLink.

Chainlink grants immediate access to a huge collection of secure node operators, premium data sources, and proven oracle solutions for getting off-chain data and verifiable randomness. By integrating Chainlink oracles, Binance Smart Chain allows developers to build secure and reliable smart contract infrastructure.
