Chainlink puts S&P Global’s DeFi vault risk checks onchain
@chainlink ($LINK) is now publishing Vault Risk Assessments from @SPGlobalRatings onchain, starting on @base. The assessments give S&P’s view of a lending vault's risk for depositors, covering loan quality, liquidity, the vault manager, the chain, and the protocol.
Lending vaults pool deposits and lend them out under set strategies, and S&P puts deposits at about $10B in September, up from $1.5B two years earlier. S&P says these assessments aren't credit ratings and say nothing about yields.

Appreciate the acknowledgment, but to clarify, we do not view link as a grift. We are a regulated financial institution, and just provide fair and balanced coverage. That means acknowledging potential risks. This is a similar risk shared by many cryptocurrencies because fundamentally they are not equities and not entitled to protocol cash flows. That said, increased adoption of chainlink would potentially result in more demand for link. For now, demand likely grows in-line with broader crypto activity (Defi/ lending / etc) but as more finance moved on chain, it’s TAM could expand massively

Thanks for sharing @AndrewMcMarkets
We feel Chainlink is one of the purest ways to get exposure to RWA adoption / tokenization.
Not a recommendation***
Past performance is no guarantee of future success
Really exciting to see major financial institutions like @CharlesSchwab do a deep dive into the @chainlink story. The world is changing quickly.

Every time I look at the #Chainlink chart I get so excited because it looks just like $NVDA before it broke out
$LINK is by far one of the most important tokens in the market and I think most people are overlooking it
I refuse. Link is going to hundreds of Dollars, per token

Game changer
"Any asset, […] any jurisdiction, with any custodial system, any time of day is now mobile in terms of collateral. This truly changes the game.”
- Dan Doney, CTO of @The_DTCC

We can now correlate all this institutional adoption of Chainlink directly to $LINK token usage:
From the public GitHub PRs (first two screenshots attached):
🔹 "cre:workflow:compute (ms)": compute is its own billable resource.
🔹 "emitted for successful and failed executions": every run is billed.
🔹 "bills them from the enclave's own measurement": confidential workflows are billed too, by time inside the enclave (trusted execution environment for private/confidential computations).
From the DTCC Demo we can see that those CRE Orchestration fees are paid in LINK (screenshots 3 and 4 attached as examples).
So:
- Institutions adopt Chainlink through CRE.
- Each workflow, as seen in the DTCC AppChain demo, consists of multiple orchestration fees (+ CCIP fees), each paid in LINK.
- In the DTCC demo, there were 4 separate orchestration fees and 1 CCIP fee - that's 5 separate LINK fees in total.
- If there were any margin calls or collateral swaps, more thorough compliance checks, or any Confidential Compute required in that demo, that would likely require further Orchestration/CCIP fees.
- The Chainlink Github shows that CRE billing for each execution is proportional to the compute time in milliseconds required. Therefore:
- The more separate workflow steps where the user signs, the more orchestration fees incurred.
- The more computations in a workflow, the more orchestration fees incurred.
- The more complex those computations, the more orchestration incurred.
- Data Feeds/Streams also required in DTCC Demo for continuous collateral pricing, which is another Chainlink service used (usually subscription-based, per-use based if AI Agents using CRE.
In summary:
Institutional adoption up > LINK fees up
$LINK token absolutely needed
🚨🚨🚨 Chainlink CRE fees may be much higher than we initially estimated 🚨🚨🚨
👀 We were assuming that there's only 1 orchestration fee in this DTCC transaction, but it looks like there's actually 4 separate orchestration fees, plus a CCIP fee too 👀
𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐭'𝐬 𝟓 𝐬𝐞𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐟𝐞𝐞𝐬 𝐩𝐚𝐢𝐝 𝐢𝐧 𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐊 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧. 🔥🔥🔥
The CRE orchestration fee isn't charged once per transaction. It's charged on every workflow step a user signs (see attached images - blurry because they're screenshots from the live demo).
In the DTCC demo at Sibos, every wallet signature shows "Orchestration fee 0.01 LINK":
13:30 Create financing contract
14:48 Deposit $10m tUSD
17:22 Request $5m loan against MSFT
29:44 Repay loan
That's 4 separate Orchestration fees, paid in LINK.
On top of that there's a separate CCIP fee (20:15) for bridging the collateral to the DTCC AppChain.
Repo + securities lending is $20T+ a day.
Even a tiny share, with multiple LINK fees per transaction, adds up fast.
The scaling is clear: more steps in a workflow means more fees.

He said he won’t explain further.
I will.
Chainlink is becoming the infrastructure connecting tokenized assets, stablecoins, institutions and blockchains.
Most of the market is still valuing $LINK like an oracle.
That gap won’t last forever.

Sergey Nazarov and Bitwise just bought another $3.15m worth of $LINK.
CCIP 2.0, an institutional-level bridge, was launched and is targeting capital markets at Sibos.
Bitwise keeps buying $LINK steadily without a second thought.
Chainlink is trading above $14.

Bottomline moves $16+ trillion in payments annually for more than 600 banks.
At @Sibos 2026, Natasha Lapierre, Global Head of Product Strategy and Innovation at @bottomlinepay, explains the firm’s strategic partnership with Chainlink ↓
NEW: Top-three Swift service provider, Bottomline, has entered a strategic partnership with Chainlink to unlock cross-chain, cross-border payments for its 600+ bank customers.
Bottomline moves more than $16 trillion in payments annually across its platforms.
Through the partnership, Chainlink is providing the secure interop and orchestration layer connecting Bottomline’s existing payment infrastructure to public and private blockchains.
TradFi is moving onchain at a rapidly accelerating pace, and CCIP is enabling tokenized value to move securely across chains, with the Chainlink Runtime Environment (CRE) coordinating payment workflows end-to-end.
The result is that Bottomline’s banks can continue using familiar ISO 20022 messaging to access onchain payment rails through a single, network-agnostic connection.

The launch of CCIP 2.0 is something we've been working on with the world's top financial institutions for a while, we have now implemented their feedback on what is needed for institutional grade bridging of data and the movement of the digital assets themselves across both public and private chains.
The response from the capital markets community here at Sibos has been very positive, and it is clear that the additional compliance, risk management, configurability and network participation capabilities of CCIP 2.0 are something that institutions find attractive and useful.
I think the digital asset industry will end up at a new level of risk management for their data all of their tokenized value; where digital assets that are not bridged via a secure method and/or are relying on data that can be manipulated, will be viewed as much more risky. If the digital assets that bridge via providers which are not secure by default and/or keep repeatedly losing bridging keys, then they will receive worse asset risk scores which necessarily leads to worse terms for their usage as collateral, their inclusion on a balance sheet, and various other use cases. In some cases we are already seeing that having unreliable bridging or easy to manipualte data for valuation is leading to some digital assets to not be accepted for collateral or other users cases at all.
We are now working closely with top FMIs, the leading banks, top asset managers, top GSIs and various capital markets technology providers to enable digital assets to operate in a derisked way, to unlock the liquidity found in public chains and to efficiently connect the next generation of digital assets to the benefits of DeFi.
