Chainlink overhauls its Build program, steering value to LINK Chainlink just rewired how its Build program works. Rather than taking native tokens from the startups it supports, Chainlink Labs will now strike commercial deals paid in ethereum:0x514910771af9ca656af840dff83e8264ecf986ca, or in liquid assets converted to LINK, with proceeds funneled into the...

We're excited to announce the launch of the Chainlink Reserve, a new upgrade centered on the creation of a strategic onchain reserve of LINK tokens. The Chainlink Reserve is designed to support the long-term growth and sustainability of the Chainlink Network by accumulating LINK tokens using offchain revenue from large enterprises that are adopting the Chainlink standard and from onchain service usage. The Chainlink Reserve is being built up by using Payment Abstraction to convert offchain and onchain revenue into LINK, using a combination of Chainlink services and decentralized exchange infrastructure. Demand for Chainlink has already created hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue, substantially from large enterprises that have paid offchain for access to the Chainlink Platform. With increasing demand from a number of the world’s largest banking and capital markets institutions, this form of paying for the Chainlink standard is expected to grow into the future as the industry grows. The Reserve has already accumulated over $1M worth of LINK from this early stage launch phase, which is expected to gradually grow in the coming months as more revenue is converted into LINK and placed into the Reserve. We do not expect any withdrawals from the Reserve for multiple years and thus it is expected to grow over time. We believe that as the industry demand for Chainlink’s unique capabilities increases, that adoption of Chainlink services will enable the Reserve to grow further. 🧵👇

A Chinese engineer from a Shenzhen HFT shop told me over hotpot that Wall Street is building the wrong half of the trade I met him through a founder I was helping in Futian. He hadn't slept in two days. His firm runs latency arb on Binance futures. "Every desk in New York predicts where BTC goes. Up. Down. Wrong question. The real question is who is too slow to update" I asked what he meant. "Chainlink" He pulled up Polymarket on his phone. "400 BTC windows a day. 5 minutes each. UP or DOWN. Resolves on the Chainlink feed. Chainlink lags Binance by 14 seconds on average. When Binance and Coinbase both move 50 bucks the same way, Chainlink follows within 2 minutes 94% of the time" He drew on a napkin soaked in chili oil. "You don't have to guess direction. Binance already told you. You just buy the side Chainlink hasn't reached yet. 4 minute window. Free money until the feed catches up" His wallet: "Wall Street builds $800M models to forecast BTC close. You just race a public oracle. Different equation. Different result" I flew home. Opened Claude Code. Typed what he said. "Build a 5-minute BTC engine on Polymarket. Enter 60-180 seconds after open when Binance and Coinbase both diverge from Chainlink by $50. Confirm with order book imbalance above 1.8. Exit at 75c. Stop at 35c" 86M historical trades. Claude ranked every window by Chainlink lag. Wrote the combiner overnight. NERVE GRID. BTC. ETH. SOL. AVAX. 400+ windows a day. Edge table live: Binance+Coinbase $50 divergence vs Chainlink. 63% alone. Book imbalance 1.8+ in the 30-90s window. 63% alone. Both signals agree. 71%. The system kills 85% of setups. Enters 50-60 a day. Winners are 4.2x the losers. Fill rate 96%. Avg latency 15ms. Early exit at 75c. Stop at 35c. Never trade the last 60 seconds. +$14,200 from $2,000 seed. 30 days. Sharpe 2.84. Infrastructure: $20 Claude. $5 Hetzner VPS. Four repos open source. $25/month. Copied the setup here: Texted him two weeks later with a screenshot. "You're racing the oracle" Claude built it from one hotpot dinner. "Good. Now try ETH during Tokyo hours. Chainlink updates slower on thinner pairs. Bigger window" I already was. He could see it in the second tab. Long pause. "You build faster than most quants at my firm. And you don't argue. That's the rare part" I didn't argue. I just listened.

S&P Global Ratings, the world’s leading provider of credit ratings, benchmarks, and analytics referenced by 95% of the top 20 global institutional investors, has partnered with Chainlink to publish its Stablecoin Stability Assessments (SSAs) onchain for the first time through DataLink. Through this partnership, more than 2,400 institutions, protocols, and developers in the Chainlink ecosystem can now directly access these assessments across 40+ public and private blockchains. This milestone marks a major leap forward in the capital markets’ adoption of tokenized finance. As S&P Global increasingly moves onchain, the company brings with it: • Over 1 million credit ratings outstanding • 1,500+ credit analysts across 150+ countries • Ratings coverage for ~1 million securities • 4,600+ corporates rated globally The stablecoin market now exceeds $300 billion, nearly doubling from a year prior. With the passage of the GENIUS Act, the first U.S. federal regulatory framework for stablecoins, these digital assets are now positioned as core financial infrastructure for global payments, trade, and settlement. However, institutions seeking to integrate stablecoins require transparent, standardized, and verifiable onchain risk insights to do so responsibly. S&P Global Ratings’ SSAs fill that gap. These assessments evaluate a stablecoin’s ability to maintain parity with fiat currencies, scored from 1 (very strong) to 5 (weak), based on asset quality, governance, liquidity, redemption mechanisms, and track record. Chainlink infrastructure, which actively secures nearly $100 billion in DeFi TVL and has enabled more than $25 trillion in onchain transaction value, ensures these assessments are delivered with industry-standard reliability, security, and data integrity. This partnership signals the beginning of a new era in financial markets, where real-time, institutionally validated risk data becomes the foundational layer of onchain finance. Learn more:

StablecoinX Inc. StablecoinX has announced an additional $530 million capital raise as part of its $ENA accumulation strategy. To date, StablecoinX has raised a total of approximately $895M in PIPE financing, which is expected to result in a vehicle with over 3 billion ENA tokens on its balance sheet at closing. This enhanced scale enables greater access to additional institutional channels, broader investor and third-party coverage, and the capacity to hire top tier leadership. As with the initial PIPE raise, the cash raised via the PIPE will be used by StablecoinX to acquire tokens from a subsidiary of the Ethena Foundation. The Ethena Foundation subsidiary will initiate an approximately $310 million buyback program over the next 6-8 weeks via third party market makers, reinforcing the alignment between the Foundation and StablecoinX shareholders. The expected deployment rate of purchases is outlined in the section below this tweet, and is incremental to the buyback program from the initial PIPE financing transaction which has now been completed. At current prices, the planned buyback program of this second PIPE transaction combined with the liquid ENA contributed to the PIPE by third party investors represents roughly 13% of circulating supply. This is in addition to the initial PIPE financing which resulted in the acquisition of approximately 7.3% of circulating token supply over the last 6 weeks. Importantly, as with the initial PIPE raise, the Ethena Foundation has the right to veto any sales of $ENA by StableCoinX at its sole discretion. Once again, to the extent StablecoinX subsequently raises capital with the intent of purchasing additional locked ENA from the Ethena Foundation or its affiliates, cash proceeds from those token sales are planned to be used to purchase spot $ENA. StablecoinX's treasury strategy is a deliberate, multi‑year capital allocation strategy that will enables StablecoinX to capture the enormous value of the secular surge in demand for digital dollars while compounding ENA per share to the benefit of shareholders.
