Bottomline partners with Chainlink to bring its bank network on-chain. Sep 4, 2026 at 10:24 am A company that moves more than $16 trillion a year through the world's banking pipes has plugged itself into blockchain rails. The Bottomline Chainlink partnership, announced this week, is more than another crypto integration for the correspondent-banking world. Bottomline, a top-three Swift service provider, announced a strategic partnership with Chainlink to bring cross-chain, cross-border payments to its network, according to a statement from Chainlink Labs. Bottomline already moves more than $16 trillion in payments annually across its platforms, largely by connecting banks to the Swift messaging network. Under the new partnership, Chainlink supplies the interoperability and orchestration layer that links Bottomline's existing payment infrastructure to both public and private blockchains. While Swift is the messaging network that banks use to instruct payments to one another, Bottomline is one of the largest companies that helps banks connect to it. Meanwhile, Chainlink is best known as an "oracle" network, a system that lets blockchains securely access outside data and connect to each other. Two of its tools are doing the work in the latest collaboration. The Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP) moves tokenized value securely between different blockchains, and the Chainlink Runtime Environment (CRE) coordinates a payment from start to finish. Together, they let Bottomline's bank customers keep using the ISO 20022 messaging format they already rely on, while reaching blockchain-based payment rails through one connection, instead of building a separate integration for every chain. That "no replatforming" detail means banks are not being asked to adopt new infrastructure, only to route existing messages through a new layer. Some press coverage of the deal has estimated the number of Bottomline bank customers gaining this access at more than 600. However, Chainlink's own announcement did not specify a figure. Alongside Citi's live blockchain settlement transactions on Swift's own shared ledger this same week, a pattern starts to form. Citi, a bank, is settling live dollar payments on a blockchain-based ledger. Bottomline, infrastructure that sits underneath hundreds of banks, is doing something similar from the messaging side. This way, PaySpace Magazine see two different layers of correspondent banking moving toward blockchain settlement. From the pattern, it seems the plumbing underneath the entire system is being upgraded piece by piece.

Wyoming Stable Token Commission migrates to Chainlink CCIP for enhanced operational security. After an exhaustive security review, the Wyoming Stable Token Commission adopts Chainlink CCIP to further bolster its cybersecurity foundation and set a new standard for the first state digital asset issuer CHEYENNE, Wyo., Aug. 18, 2026 - The Wyoming Stable Token Commission, issuer of the Frontier Stable Token (FRNT), today announced that the State of Wyoming has fully migrated away from LayerZero to Chainlink's Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP) as its exclusive cross-chain infrastructure in a multi-year contract. As the first sovereign stable token in the United States, FRNT represents critical public-sector financial infrastructure for Wyoming. Given its obligation to maintain the highest levels of security, governance, and operational integrity for the Frontier Stable Token, the Commission made the critical decision to upgrade to Chainlink CCIP after determining it was the only solution uniquely capable of meeting its rigorous standards, backed by Chainlink Labs' comprehensive operational security and risk disclosure policies. Wyoming has established itself as the leading U.S. state for digital asset policy and public-sector blockchain innovation. The Frontier Stable Token is the first fiat-backed, fully reserved stable token issued by a public entity in the United States. It is designed to provide transparent, efficient, and secure digital dollar infrastructure for individuals, businesses, institutions, and public-sector use cases, including payments and settlement. This groundbreaking initiative cements Wyoming at the forefront of digital finance and blockchain innovation. A November 8, 2023, letter from Wyoming's Select Committee on Blockchain, Financial Technology, and Digital Innovation Technology encouraged the Commission to adopt a "multi-chain, technology-neutral approach" to deploying its stable token. FRNT has since been deployed on eight public blockchains, following the Commission's quarterly blockchain selection exercise. FRNT is currently available on Arbitrum, Avalanche, Base, Ethereum, Hedera, Optimism, Polygon, and Solana blockchains. While the Commission performed its initial deployment through LayerZero's omnichain fungible token standard, the Commission has since opted to fully deprecate the LayerZero implementation following a detailed security review. FRNT will now leverage Chainlink's cross-chain infrastructure in a multi-year contract. Chainlink CCIP has emerged as the leading infrastructure for securely transferring digital assets across blockchain networks. Notably, CCIP implements a defense-in-depth approach to security, including institutional certifications such as SOC 2 Type 2, a highly audited codebase, robust monitoring systems, built-in risk controls, and a decentralized architecture where every transaction is redundantly validated by a minimum of 16 independent node operators. CCIP is also built on the same decentralized oracle network infrastructure that has enabled over $33 trillion in transaction value, secures the vast majority of decentralized finance (DeFi), and has been adopted by the world's largest financial institutions and market infrastructures. "Wyoming is building public-sector financial infrastructure with the Frontier Stable Token, and that carries a responsibility to protect the people, businesses, and institutions that rely on it," said Anthony Apollo, Executive Director of the Wyoming Stable Token Commission. "By adopting Chainlink CCIP, we now have highly secure cross-chain infrastructure that meets the standard our citizens deserve. Wyoming has always led from the front on digital asset innovation, which is why we look forward to expanding the role Chainlink plays in our state's digital asset future." "I'm very excited that the State of Wyoming has upgraded Frontier Stable Token to Chainlink CCIP as its exclusive cross-chain infrastructure," said Sergey Nazarov, Co-Founder of Chainlink. "Wyoming has consistently been a leader in digital asset policy and public-sector blockchain adoption, and their selection of CCIP shows that governments and other serious institutions need secure, reliable, and standard-setting infrastructure to move digital assets across chains at scale. This is another important step toward a globally connected onchain financial system, and we look forward to working with the Commission to help define the next generation of financial markets." By migrating to Chainlink CCIP, Wyoming is providing a blueprint for other states, government entities, financial institutions, payment companies, asset managers, and stablecoin issuers seeking to deploy regulated digital assets across blockchains while meeting strict institutional standards for operational security.
