Chainlink CEO: Speed at which the U.S. financial system goes on-chain will determine its global standing.

Chainlink co-founder and CEO Sergey Nazarov stated at the first meeting of the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) Innovation Advisory Committee that he appreciates the CFTC and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) finally beginning to cooperate efficiently and constructively, rather than openly conflicting with each other as they did before. He noted that this in itself has significantly enhanced the reputation and trust of U.S. financial markets, and will help form a unified regulatory vision, avoiding past situations where "16 or 25 conflicting rules" hindered innovation. Nazarov pointed out that regulatory fragmentation has already caused serious costs. Chainlink provides infrastructure such as data and cross-chain services for thousands of applications, and supports most of the DeFi ecosystem. Over the past seven years, he has witnessed firsthand hundreds of developers choosing to leave the U.S. due to regulatory uncertainty, no longer building high-quality applications in the U.S. or serving U.S. consumers. These innovators are no longer present at the meeting, representing a huge loss for the U.S. financial system and consumers. He emphasized that the next trend is clear: equity tokenization will unlock massive on-chain value. The U.S. stock market currently accounts for about 60% of the global equity market's value and trading volume. If the global financial system accelerates its on-chain transition, the U.S. must advance its on-chain development at an equal or even faster pace to maintain this leading position. Otherwise, innovation and market advantages may be lost.

Mantle Super Portal has migrated to Chainlink CCIP, bringing institutional-grade security for MNT cross-chain transfers.

According to official announcements, Mantle today announced that its native cross-chain infrastructure Mantle Super Portal—developed in partnership with Bybit—has migrated from LayerZero to Chainlink CCIP. Powered by CCIP, Mantle Super Portal will feature enhanced cross-chain security, decentralized node infrastructure security guarantees, advanced risk management, and institutional-grade security standards, delivering a higher level of protection for cross-chain transfers of MNT tokens valued at over $2.5 billion. Additionally, as an increasing number of regulated assets, such as tokenized equities, move on-chain, the underlying infrastructure supporting them must meet traditional financial standards. This migration will further solidify Mantle’s position as a "distribution layer connecting traditional finance and on-chain liquidity" and underscores Mantle and Bybit’s ongoing commitment to growing MNT through further integrations, opportunities, and use cases. According to the announcement, Mantle Super Portal will be temporarily offline during the migration period, scheduled from July 9 to 15, 2026 (with a possible slight extension of the timeline). Users do not need to take any action, and transfers will automatically resume once the migration is complete.

Chainlink has launched the Pangea Project in collaboration with a consortium of multinational banks to explore T+0 settlement for stablecoin foreign exchange transactions.

Chainlink announced the launch of Project Pangea in collaboration with FairSquareLab, UniKA, and euro stablecoin alliance Qivalis, an initiative aimed at exploring stablecoin-based real-time cross-border foreign exchange settlement models. Project Pangea will leverage Chainlink’s data, interoperability, and orchestration standards, along with FairSquareLab’s on-chain foreign exchange settlement technology, to enable direct atomic transactions between euro, South Korean won, and other compliant fiat-pegged digital assets, while driving the foreign exchange market’s transition from the traditional T+2 settlement model to T+0 real-time settlement. UniKA’s steering committee comprises Shinhan Bank, JB Bank, Kbank, FairSquareLab, and OBDIA, with more than a dozen South Korean commercial banks participating; Qivalis is supported by 37 leading European banks. Collectively, the involved institutions represent over $10 trillion in assets under management.

Multiple Protocols Migrate from LayerZero to Chainlink CCIP, Total TVL Surpasses $2 Billion

May 10th — According to analyst Tom Wan, multiple protocols with a combined total value locked (TVL) of roughly $20 billion have announced plans to migrate to Chainlink CCIP, despite LayerZero issuing an apology statement earlier. These include KelpDAO ($15B), SolvProtocol ($6B), and re ($2B). Meanwhile, top assets still using LayerZero’s OFT standard are: USDe/sUSDe (Ethena), weETH (Etherfi), USDT0 (Tether), thBILL (Theo), and WBTC (Bitgo). Specific migration timelines will be released by the projects at a later date. Earlier, LayerZero formally apologized for its inadequate communication during the security incident over the past three weeks. The firm acknowledged its internal RPC was compromised by the Lazarus Group and admitted it had mistakenly allowed LayerZero Labs DVN to serve as a 1/1 validation node for high-value transactions, creating a single point of failure.

Kelp DAO has deprecated LayerZero and shifted to Chainlink CCIP after the hack incident.

On May 6, Kelp DAO announced it will abandon LayerZero as its cross-chain infrastructure following a hack, and instead adopt Chainlink’s Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP) alongside the Chainlink Cross-Chain Token (CCT) standard. The move comes after Kelp DAO suffered an approximately $292 million cross-chain bridge attack in April. The attacker, suspected of ties to North Korea’s Lazarus Group, exploited a single-validator setup in LayerZero’s OFT cross-chain bridge to steal 116,500 rsETH.

Chainlink Co-Founder on Crypto State of Affairs: No Major Systemic Risk Yet, On-chain Asset Trend Accelerating

On February 10, Chainlink co-founder Sergey Nazarov shared a lengthy post on X (formerly Twitter) addressing the current crypto market landscape. He highlighted that market cycles are a normal part of the cryptocurrency industry—what’s critical is that these cycles reveal the sector’s development trajectory, and the trends defining the next phase (adoption, value creation) will set the industry’s course. Notably, there have been no major risk management failures to date that have caused large institutions to collapse or systemic risk to spread. This indicates the industry’s risk management practices are significantly stronger in this cycle than in the previous one. Nazarov also stated that, regardless of price fluctuations, the on-chainization of real-world assets (RWAs) is accelerating consistently. This underscores that RWA on-chainization isn’t closely tied to crypto prices; it has unique value that can grow independently of Bitcoin or other crypto asset prices. Further, this
