Building Chainlink, the industry-standard Web3 services platform that has enabled trillions of dollars in transaction volume across DeFi, insurance, gaming, NFTs, and other major industries. As the leading decentralized oracle network, Chainlink enables developers to build feature-rich Web3 applications with seamless access to real-world data and off-chain computation across any blockchain and provides global enterprises with a universal gateway to all blockchains. Learn more about how Chainlink is creating a world powered by cryptographic truth: chain.link -- Thesis on Smart Contracts-- Tamper-proof contractual execution is the future of both high-value financial agreements (derivatives, insurance, trade finance, etc...) and micro-transactions (IoT payments, Ad payments, Mobile payments, etc... ). Tamper-proof computable contracts known as "smart contracts" have emerged to define a new part of the internet run entirely on decentralized infrastructure, with blockchains for storage and smart contract networks for compute. This new part of the internet is able to secure higher value data than ever before due to private/public keys as one of it's fundamental building blocks, initially creating the Internet of Money (Bitcoin) and now seeing the emergence of an Internet of Contracts. Chainlink’s pioneering decentralized oracle technology unlocks the full potential of smart contracts by connecting them to off-chain data and computation and enabling existing financial institutions to easily and securely interact with Web3. We should all come to expect cryptographically provable accountability for high-value financial agreements and tamper-proof smart contracts stored in decentralized infrastructure and executed by a decentralized computing network, will massively reduce non-performance risk, eliminate certain insurance/legal costs and create valuable trust, which leads to superior deal terms. -- My Perspective on Daily Life -- We must stand upright ourselves, not be setup. ~ Marcus Aurelius Genius is one percent inspiration and ninety nine percent perspiration. ~ Thomas Edison If one does not know to what port one is sailing, no wind is favorable. ~ Seneca Every new beginning comes from some other beginnings end. ~Seneca This time, like all times, is a very good one, if we but know what to do with it. ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
