What Is Chainlink?

LINK is the #14 crypto right now, and while its trade volume is down nearly 31% over the last 24 hours and the rate has leveled off over the last couple of days, it could easily still continue upward over the weekend.

Chainlink is a decentralized oracle network blockchain powered by smart contracts. This particular blockchain second incorporates external feeds like payment methods, economic events, world news, and more to help inform its smart contracts.

Chainlink’s network is an open source one driven by a large community of researchers, developers, and data providers. The network is audited by the community and allows participation on a large scale. Chainlink stands out by letting its users act as node operators.

This network offers powerful security that makes it attractive for data providers such as Alpha Vantage, Brave New Coin, and Huobi. The Chainlink network provides essential services for DeFi apps like yEarn, Synthetix, and more, securing substantial value for these partners.

Chainlink is available to buy on major exchange platforms like Binance, Kraken, Coinbase Pro, and others.

Even though it looks like a promising crypto to invest in thanks to its recent upward swing, the momentum could change at any moment. Investors could easily lose a lot of money quickly or make quick profits due to the volatile nature of this cryptocurrency.
