Today, Chainlink Labs, one of the primary contributing developers of Chainlink, the standard for onchain finance, has joined the Global Synchronizer Foundation (GSF). This partnership brings fresh opportunities by supporting the development of interoperable, institutional-grade blockchain infrastructure across the Canton Network and beyond.
Bringing The Chainlink Standard to The Canton Ecosystem
As one of the primary contributing developers of the Chainlink platform, Chainlink Labs brings years of experience building secure, production-ready infrastructure that underpins leading financial applications across public and private blockchain environments. The Canton ecosystem stands to gain from Chainlink’s deep experience in building and operating critical infrastructure that supports high-value, real-world use cases across capital markets and DeFi. By contributing to the foundation’s technical direction and platform strategy, Chainlink Labs helps create the conditions for scalable, secure, and institutional-grade applications to thrive.
Chainlink is the most widely adopted platform for powering onchain finance, with over $21 trillion in transaction value enabled across more than 2,300 applications and 60+ public and private blockchain networks. Chainlink’s infrastructure is trusted by leading institutions and market infrastructures such as Swift, Euroclear, and Fidelity International, and is integrated into major DeFi protocols including Aave, GMX, and Lido. Its infrastructure supports mission-critical use cases across capital markets, banking, regulated stablecoins, and asset management, making it a foundational layer for institutions looking to build secure, data-rich, and interoperable applications.
As part of the Global Synchronizer Foundation, Chainlink Labs will collaborate with other foundation members to help shape the underlying frameworks that define how applications coordinate across the Canton ecosystem. This includes contributing to shared standards, supporting long-term infrastructure governance, and helping ensure the network evolves in a way that balances openness with institutional readiness.
This collaboration reflects a shared belief in the importance of open infrastructure as the foundation for the future of finance. As the Canton Network continues to expand, Chainlink Labs remains committed to supporting ecosystems that prioritize privacy, security, and interoperability. In doing so, it helps unlock new opportunities for institutions and developers alike.
