2021 was a year of massive growth for #Chainlink. Thank you to all the developers, node operators, data providers, community members, and contributors who helped make this past year a success.
Here are 7 key pillars of Chainlink's 2021 momentum: blog.chain.link/the-year-in-ch…
1/ The Total Value Secured (TVS) of the Chainlink Network surpassed $75B, a 10x+ increase on the previous year.
Chainlink now supports 700+ oracle networks, with oracles feeding market data & other datasets on-chain, such as weather data, sports stats, Proof of Reserve, & more.
2/ The Chainlink ecosystem now consists of 1,000+ projects, with half of all integrations taking place in 2021.
Chainlinked applications secure the majority of TVL across #DeFi lending & derivatives markets, supported by oracle networks that bring critical market data on-chain.
3/ Chainlink oracles have serviced 2.5M+ requests for secure off-chain computation.
Chainlink VRF and Chainlink Keepers have expanded support to more blockchains, providing developers access to a secure and reliable source of verifiable randomness and DevOps automation.
4/ As a blockchain-agnostic protocol, Chainlink has expanded to support 12 chains and layer-2 scaling solutions.
When Chainlink oracles are deployed on a new network, that on-chain ecosystem experiences a surge of growth as developers are empowered to build more advanced dApps.
5/ Across 2 Chainlink hackathons, there were:
11,000+ signups
420+ submissions
$730k+ in prizes
The open-source dev ecosystem supporting Chainlink has rapidly grown, with 3,300+ pull requests from 180+ contributors in 2021 & 4,000+ public GitHub repos now referencing Chainlink.
6/ Chainlink is the leading oracle network in terms of enterprise adoption.
Top enterprises like the AP, AccuWeather, AWS, GCP, & Swisscom joined the Chainlink ecosystem to access the blockchain economy and help the Chainlink Network securely deliver 1.1B+ data points on-chain.
7/ Chainlink is supporting the growth of the #multichain ecosystem by developing the Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP).
Cross-chain innovation is set to unlock massive value across global industries and help enable the shift to a world powered by cryptographic truth.
