Stellar has joined efforts with Chainlink through the Chainlink SCALE program to advance decentralized finance (DeFi) and real-world asset (RWA) interoperability. The collaboration brings Chainlink’s Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP), Data Feeds, and Data Streams to the Stellar ecosystem, enhancing scalability, security, and developer efficiency.

Stellar Adopts Chainlink CCIP for Secure Token Transfers
According to the press release, Stellar will utilize Chainlink’s CCIP to facilitate secure cross-chain token transfers without modifying existing contracts. The protocol, backed by Chainlink’s decentralized oracle network, securing over $100 billion in DeFi value, delivers institutional-grade scalability and interoperability.
Additionally, developers will gain access to pre-audited token pool contracts and ERC-20-compatible transfers, supporting interoperable DeFi applications. Furthermore, CCIP’s Smart Execution and rate-limit controls ensure reliability during network congestion.
By allowing data and tokens to move in a single atomic transaction, Stellar reduces complexity and strengthens multi-chain functionality.
Furthermore, the integration positions Stellar as a multi-chain platform supporting institutional tokenization, on-chain payments, and cross-network liquidity.
Major Integrations Drive Cross-Chain Expansion
Remarkably, the alliance strengthens Chainlink’s role as a key infrastructure provider for DeFi and tokenized assets. Its Data Feeds and Data Streams will now support Stellar applications with real-time pricing, automation, and on-chain settlement.
Notably, CCIP, which has processed tens of trillions in on-chain value, provides secure interoperability for Stellar developers. Through the SCALE program, Stellar gains cost-efficient access to Chainlink’s services with guaranteed scalability.
Chainlink continues to expand its reach across major institutions, including SWIFT, DTCC, BNY Mellon, Euroclear, Citibank, Deutsche Bank, and the Hong Kong Monetary Authority. These entities use Chainlink technology for blockchain settlement and tokenization systems.
Additionally, in October 2025, the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) selected Chainlink to publish official macroeconomic data on-chain. This partnership brings verified government statistics to blockchains, including Ethereum and Avalanche.

Meanwhile, these partnerships continue to boost investor confidence, as enthusiasts expect prices to soon reflect this heightened institutional adoption. Particularly, investor Jordan believes that LINK will hit triple digits in the near future.
In the meantime, Chainlink’s native token is trading at $16.08, down 8.34% over the past 24 hours, with a market capitalization of $11.24 billion and a daily volume of $809 million.
