In his monumental Smart Contract Summit 2021 keynote, Chainlink Co-Founder Sergey Nazarov discussed the inherent flaws of brand-based agreements and explained the superiority of smart contracts—next-generation digital agreements backed by cryptographic truth. Nazarov also announced the mainnet launch of Chainlink Automation (formerly known as Chainlink Keepers), a secure offchain service that enables dApp developers to automate key smart contract functions in a highly reliable, decentralized, and cost-efficient manner. Nazarov concluded his keynote by introducing the Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP), a new open-source communication standard that enables interoperability between public/private blockchains, layer-2 networks, and existing systems.
Chainlink is the industry-standard decentralized computing platform powering the verifiable web. Chainlink has enabled over $9 trillion in transaction value by providing financial institutions, startups, and developers worldwide with access to real-world data, offchain computation, and secure cross-chain interoperability across any blockchain.
