Chainlink FAQ
- What is Chainlink?
- Chainlink (LINK) is the largest decentralised oracle network, launched in 2017. Oracles feed real-world data (prices, weather, match scores, cross-chain state) into smart contracts, since blockchains cannot fetch external data natively.
- What is LINK used for?
- LINK pays node operators for oracle reports, secures stake on nodes via Chainlink Staking, and is the unit of account for Chainlink Services (CCIP cross-chain, Proof of Reserve, VRF randomness, and Data Feeds).
- What is CCIP?
- Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol — a Chainlink product that moves tokens + messages between blockchains with programmable security policies. Major institutions (ANZ, Swift) have piloted CCIP for tokenised-asset settlement.
- Can I stake LINK?
- Yes. Chainlink Staking v0.2 is live with a dynamic reward pool. Stakers help secure specific price feeds and earn LINK emissions plus a share of user fees. The program has an access cap — there's a waitlist when full.
