Chainlink hits Ethereum layer 2 Arbitrum for cross-chain DApp development

Blockchain oracle web Chainlink has tapped into Ethereum (ETH) furniture 2 scaling protocol Arbitrum to thrust cross-chain decentralized exertion development.

The 2 protocols announced the mainnet motorboat of the Chainlink Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP) connected Arbitrum One connected Sept .21, giving developers entree to Chainlink’s solution that taps into Arbitrum’s high-throughput, debased outgo scaling.

The operation of CCIP and Arbitrum One’s ecosystem aims to unlock a myriad of usage cases, including cross-chain tokenization and collateralization, blockchain gaming, information retention and computation.

Chainlink Labs main concern serviceman Johann Eid commented connected the partnership, highlighting Arbitrum’s relation successful offloading transaction congestion from Ethereum’s basal furniture and providing a basal to physique DApps.

“CCIP present gives these users entree to a highly unafraid and easy-to-use interoperability protocol built connected Chainlink's time-tested infrastructure, powering cross-chain astute contracts successful a mode that volition unfastened up caller avenues of growth, accessibility, and innovation.”

The integration volition wed Arbitrum’s optimistic rollup exertion that presently commands astir 60% of full worth locked successful the wider Ethereum furniture 2 ecosystem. Arbitrum facilitates accelerated and debased interest transactions that are batched off-chain and past submitted to Ethereum’s basal layer.

The optimistic rollup is assumed to beryllium valid until proven different by validators of the network.

Meanwhile CCIP allows developers to physique cross-chain DApps that usage arbitrary messaging and simplified token transfers. This taps into Chainlink’s decentralized oracle web that enables astute contracts to securely entree off-chain information sources, APIs, and outgo systems.

The protocol allows astute contracts to interact with real-world information and events, making it imaginable for them to beryllium triggered by information from outer sources.

Another salient Ethereum scaling exertion steadfast successful StarkWare antecedently tapped into Chainlink’s oracle services. As Cointelegraph antecedently reported, StarkWare’s zero-knowledge impervious rollup protocol StarkNet integrated Chainlink’s information and terms feeds for its ecosystem successful February 2023.
