Connect your smart contract to real world data
Connect your smart contract to to real world data
Smart contracts are inherently disconnected
Blockchains are highly secure and reliable networks for value exchange but lack the functionality to natively fetch external data or send data to offchain systems in a manner that retains end-to-end tamper-resistance.
Chainlink connects smart contracts to the real world
Through the use of secure oracles, Chainlink extends the functionality of blockchains by connecting smart contracts to real-world data, events, payments, and offchain computation in a highly tamper-resistant and reliable manner.
Case studies
Secure oracle networks powering offchain data and services for any smart contract
End-to-end decentralization
Use decentralized oracle networks made up of independent and Sybil-resistant nodes for high availability and manipulation resistance.
Provably secure nodes
Provide cryptographic proof of the oracle networks' overall integrity as every piece of data is digitally signed by nodes and stored onchain.
High-quality data
Access any password-protected or authenticated API data source, redundantly validated by multiple nodes to prevent any single points of failure.
Crypto-economic security
Leverage provably secure nodes that are economically incentivized to deliver accurate results onchain.
Defense in depth
Apply multiple layers of security such as cryptographic signatures, trusted execution environments, zero-knowledge proofs, and more.
Open-source community
Improve network security and accelerate development through ongoing contributions from node operators, developers, researchers, security auditors, and more.
Blockchain agnostic
Connect to all leading public and private blockchain environments from a single framework, providing a universal abstraction level for cross-network connectivity.
Offchain computation
Combine onchain infrastructure with cost-efficient and reliable offchain computation to create feature-rich decentralized applications in the form of hybrid smart contracts.
The most reliable oracle network in DeFi
Chainlink Price Feeds provide critical financial market data required to issue, settle, and secure a wide array of DeFi applications
The Chainlink Network supports a multitude of price and data feeds live in production, securing tens of billions in value for many leading DeFi applications, CeFi companies, and various other financial institutions.

Decentralized and reliable smart contract automation
Chainlink Automation enable smart contract developers to outsource the triggering of smart contract functions to a decentralized network of nodes.
The Chainlink Automation network monitors smart contracts and performs offchain computations to determine when onchain functions need to be called, providing a decentralized transaction automation service.
