Chainlink SGX Data, SEC Token Rules & Liquidchain Presale
Tenbin migrates tGLD, tMXN, and tBRL to Chainlink CCIP after internal cross-chain security audit.
Chainlink can't catch a break. The token is trading near $10 in May 2026, and the $10 level has basically become a wall it keeps running into — one that's starting to feel less like a temporary ceiling and more like a verdict.
Kraken's migration to Chainlink CCIP reflected rising institutional demand for secure cross-chain settlement infrastructure.
Lombard Finance, one of the largest Bitcoin-native liquid staking platforms in the DeFi ecosystem, reported that it will move more than $1 billion in Bitcoin-backed assets from LayerZero's infrastructure to Chainlink's Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP). Those responsible for the protocol confirmed that they will completely eliminate LayerZero from their interoperability architecture.
Lombard has joined a wave of protocols switching to Chainlink CCIP as LayerZero migrations top $4 billion.
The Bitcoin DeFi protocol is moving its assets away from LayerZero following the Kelp DAO exploit that led to the loss of $292 million.
Decentralized finance platforms are increasingly turning to Chainlinks Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP) after security concerns surrounding competing bridge technology intensified following a major crypto exploit. Around $4 billion in digital assets have either migrated or are currently being moved to Chainlinks CCIP infrastructure, highlighting a growing industry focus on safer cross-chain solutions.
Kraken is migrating billions of dollars in wrapped asset infrastructure to Chainlink, replacing LayerZero with Chainlink's CCIP as the exclusive bridge provider for kBTC and future tokenized assets.
Chainlink establishes itself as one of the big winners in the RWA market. The project leads Stellar and Avalanche in several rankings, while tokenized real assets become a major battleground for blockchain infrastructures.
Cryptocurrency exchange Kraken has confirmed its decision to transition away from LayerZero as the underlying cross-chain technology for kBTC, its wrapped Bitcoin offering, opting instead for Chainlink's Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP).
LayerZero has come under scrutiny since it was exploited in April, as crypto protocols reevaluate their cross-chain providers and seek safer alternatives.
