↑ 8%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.

July 2026 recap: Chainlink powers World prediction market, $7.2B+ migrates from LayerZero to CCIP. August 3, 2026 Chainlink continues to accelerate prediction markets as one of the fastest-growing sectors in global finance, with a projected $1 trillion annual trading volume by 2030. In July, Solana launched its premier prediction market, World, which partnered with Chainlink to provide high-speed market data and immediate resolution. World launched on Phantom, Solana's most popular non-custodial crypto wallet, and opened with markets spanning crypto prices and the 2026 FIFA Men's World Cup. World leverages the Chainlink Runtime Environment (CRE) and Chainlink Data Streams to enhance its Solana-native markets as they expand into sports, politics, macroeconomics, and culture. On an episode of The Edge Podcast, Chainlink Labs' Chief Business Officer, Johann Eid, explained why prediction markets such as Polymarket, Myriad, Jupiter Exchange, Kalshi, and ADI Predictstreet, which regularly process up to $24 billion in monthly trading volume, require Chainlink's secure-by-default oracle infrastructure to operate globally at scale. "Prediction markets cannot exist if you don't know what has happened and Chainlink has been building the infrastructure to say 'that's what happened' for the last seven years. It's a big focus for us and a lot of the market is moving to this type of resolution through decentralized oracles." More than $7.2 billion in protocol value has now migrated from LayerZero to Chainlink's Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP), following a LayerZero exploit that resulted in nearly $300 million in losses across DeFi. Mantle, Ethereum's largest L2 with ZK proofs, is migrating its native cross-chain infrastructure, the Mantle Super Portal, from LayerZero to CCIP. The Super Portal, co-developed with Bybit, will leverage CCIP to strengthen the security of Mantle's $2.5 billion utility and governance token, MNT, as it moves between different blockchain networks. Yuzu Money, a decentralized yield protocol with institutional-grade risk management, also adopted CCIP as its exclusive cross-chain infrastructure. The migration replaces Yuzu Money's previous LayerZero OFT bridging integration and unlocks the secure expansion and distribution of assets across DeFi's multi-chain ecosystem. CCIP is also key to Lombard Finance's Bitcoin Onchain Credit Strategy, a new allocation within the Bitcoin Earn automated yield product. As the only interoperability standard to achieve ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type 2 attestation, CCIP unlocks multi-chain distribution for the Strategy, which establishes a novel source of Bitcoin-denominated yield driven by real financing activity. Following an updated Aave Risk Framework that scored CCIP as the most secure cross-chain infrastructure for governing all assets, Aave expanded its use of CCIP to Aave App, a consumer-facing mobile savings application that lets users earn high-yield returns without any technical knowledge. Instead of manual bridge and deposit actions, CCIP powers cross-chain vault rebalancing, deposits, and transfers in the background using a single interface. United Stables, a leading digital asset infrastructure provider, adopted Chainlink as the official data and cross-chain infrastructure to scale the $1 billion U stablecoin, designed to unify liquidity across trading, payments, DeFi, institutional settlement, and AI-driven autonomous systems. The integration includes Chainlink Data Feeds and Proof of Reserve, with plans to integrate CCIP in the near future. Chainlink is bringing the $1.69 trillion U.S. auto loan market to DeFi via AUTO, the first permissionless RWA backed by near-prime U.S. auto loan yield. Issued by Hastra, AUTO is secured by Chainlink Data Streams on Kamino, the largest DeFi lending protocol on Solana with over $1 billion in TVL. AUTO gives Kamino users direct access to auto loan yield onchain and marks the start of Hastra's transition into tokenized consumer credit. Have an idea for a story?

Chainlink brings 6 U.S. Government economic Data Feeds onchain. What to know: * Chainlink and the U.S. Department of Commerce introduced six official BEA macroeconomic data feeds onchain. * The new feeds include Real GDP, PCE Price Index, and Real Final Sales with both level and annualized change data. * Official economic data could support DeFi risk management, tokenized assets, prediction markets, and automated trading. * The initiative reflects the growing convergence of blockchain infrastructure with traditional financial and economic data. Chainlink has announced a collaboration with the U.S. Department of Commerce (DOC) to make official U.S. macroeconomic data available onchain through Chainlink Data Feeds. The integration sources data from the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA), enabling blockchain applications to securely access key economic indicators such as Gross Domestic Product (GDP), the Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) Price Index, and Real Final Sales to Private Domestic Purchasers. Six official economic indicators now available onchain. According to Chainlink Labs, six macroeconomic datasets from the BEA are now accessible through Chainlink Data Feeds. These include Real GDP (level and annualized percentage change), the PCE Price Index (level and annualized percentage change), and Real Final Sales to Private Domestic Purchasers (level and annualized percentage change). These indicators are among the most widely followed measures of U.S. economic activity. GDP reflects the size and growth of the economy, while the PCE Price Index is the U.S. Federal Reserve's preferred inflation gauge. Real Final Sales provide insight into underlying domestic demand by excluding inventory fluctuations. Why government data matters for blockchain markets. Historically, blockchain applications have relied primarily on cryptocurrency price feeds. By adding authenticated government macroeconomic data, developers can build financial products that respond automatically to changes in inflation, economic growth, or consumer spending without relying on manual data entry. Chainlink said the integration could support inflation-linked digital assets, automated trading strategies, perpetual futures, prediction markets, tokenized asset platforms, transparent economic dashboards, and DeFi risk management. These use cases demonstrate how blockchain infrastructure is gradually expanding beyond crypto-native applications into broader financial markets. Tokenization trend continues to expand. The announcement also aligns with the broader industry movement toward tokenized real-world assets (RWAs). Major financial institutions have increasingly explored blockchain-based settlement systems, while policymakers have continued discussions around digital asset regulation and tokenized securities. Access to standardized government data may improve interoperability between traditional finance and decentralized applications. Developers building lending protocols, stablecoin systems, and structured financial products could use official macroeconomic releases as programmable inputs for smart contracts instead of depending solely on market prices. What comes next for Chainlink and developers. The collaboration strengthens Chainlink's position as one of the leading providers of decentralized oracle infrastructure. Rather than simply delivering cryptocurrency prices, the network continues expanding into real-world data categories that can support increasingly sophisticated blockchain applications. For developers, institutions, and DeFi protocols, access to trusted U.S. government data could reduce information asymmetry and improve transparency. As tokenized finance grows, reliable onchain economic indicators may become an important building block for the next generation of blockchain-based financial products.
