- Monad has partnered with Chainlink Scale to enhance its ecosystem with secure data feeds and cross-chain interoperability, boosting DeFi capabilities.
- This collaboration positions Monad as a leading platform for scalable, data-driven decentralized applications.
Monad, a cutting-edge Layer-1 blockchain, has partnered with Chainlink Scale to strengthen its ecosystem and enhance decentralized finance (DeFi) capabilities. This strategic collaboration will equip Monad with secure, cost-effective, and decentralized data feeds, driving the next wave of blockchain innovation.
Enhancing DeFi with Chainlink’s Oracle Network
Monad actively addresses the blockchain trilemma—scalability, security, and decentralization—by implementing technical innovations. By integrating Chainlink’s trusted oracle network, Monad is positioning itself as a key player in the DeFi space. Chainlink’s oracles provide tamper-proof Data Feeds, Data Streams, and CCIP, allowing Monad to deliver real-time data to dApps.
The integration of Chainlink’s oracles will allow Monad’s smart contracts to securely interact with real-world information. This capability is key for building scalable DeFi applications, particularly those handling complex financial transactions across blockchain networks. With real-time data across various asset classes, including Proof of Reserve, Monad aims to attract developers creating secure, data-rich applications.
Powerful Features for Developers
Monad stands out with impressive throughput capabilities, offering over 10,000 transactions per second (TPS) and a block time of just 0.5 seconds. The platform’s compatibility with Ethereum’s Virtual Machine (EVM) also makes it an attractive choice for developers familiar with Ethereum. Monad’s four core technologies—MonadBFT, Asynchronous Execution, Parallel Execution, and MonadDb—enable developers to create fast, cost-efficient dApps without compromising data integrity or decentralization.
Keone Hon, Monad’s Co-Founder and CEO, emphasized the importance of Chainlink’s infrastructure in providing accurate pricing and market data for DeFi applications. With ultra-reliable data feeds, Monad positions itself to support the development of next-generation decentralized apps that require real-time information.
Unlocking Cross-Chain Functionality with CCIP and Data Streams
The integration also includes Chainlink’s Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP) and Data Streams, both of which are now live on Monad’s Testnet. CCIP will enable seamless communication between Monad and other blockchain networks, facilitating cross-chain interoperability. Meanwhile, Data Streams will provide continuous, high-throughput data feeds, crucial for building DeFi platforms that rely on dynamic data. With the ability to support up to 1,000 unique data points per second, Monad’s integration is a game-changer for real-time DeFi applications.
A Strategic Move Toward Blockchain Interoperability
Monad’s partnership with Chainlink Scale is more than a technical upgrade—it’s a strategic alignment with one of the most trusted infrastructure providers in the Web3 space. As the blockchain ecosystem matures, the demand for scalable, secure, and data-rich environments is growing. Monad’s collaboration with Chainlink positions it as a leader ready to support the next generation of blockchain applications, from DeFi protocols to cross-chain projects.
By integrating Chainlink’s oracles, Monad is paving the way for long-term adoption, making it an appealing platform for dApp developers seeking scalability, accuracy, and transparency. This partnership is a major step toward building a decentralized future with the right infrastructure in place.
