Chainlink Deepens Multi-Chain Dominance — Expanding Across Ethereum, Solana, TON, and Stellar as LINK Eyes Next Leg Up

• Chainlink has added 62 new integrations to its network, featuring newcomers such as AllUnityStable, OfficialApeXdex, and Bean DEX.
• The news comes amid growing anticipation for LINK to surpass the $18 threshold, supported by its infrastructure powered by CCIP and CRE.

This week, Chainlink, the leading Web3 interoperability protocol, has announced 62 new integrations across 24 different blockchains.

The supported chains include Arbitrum (ARB), Arc, Avalanche, Base, Berachain, BNB Chain, Canton Network, Corn, Ethereum (ETH), Etherlink, Katana, Linea, Mantle, Monad, opBNB, Optimism, Pharos, Plasma, Polygon (MATIC), Solana (SOL), Sonic, Stellar (XLM), TAC, and TON.

These integrations represent a wide array of decentralized applications, from DeFi platforms to data networks, and demonstrate the growing cross-chain demand for secure oracle and interoperability solutions.

Among the notable new integrations are ApeX, Bean DEX, CapricornDEX, Folks Finance, Ondo Finance, Streamex, Twon Square, Inverse Finance, Spiko Finance, and Interport Finance.

Notably, AllUnity has also joined this list after recently launching EURAU, a euro-backed stablecoin, across six different blockchain networks, and the rollout leverages Chainlink’s Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP).

In addition to the integration surge, Chainlink announced that Fidelity, FTSE Russell, Google Cloud, and the Global Legal Entity Identifier Foundation (GLEIF) will serve as Gold Sponsors for this year’s SmartCon event, taking place November 4–5 in New York City.

SmartCon has become one of the blockchain industry’s most influential gatherings, bringing together developers, financial institutions, and regulators to explore the convergence of traditional finance (TradFi) and decentralized finance (DeFi).

This year’s agenda includes key themes such as Banking & Capital Markets, Institutional Finance, Compliance, Interoperability, and Tokenized Assets, all central topics in the evolution of on-chain finance and global digital infrastructure.

LINK Price Trajectory in Question

Ancient Medicine, a finance analyst, laid out a pointed critique in a detailed X post, arguing that the community is missing the bigger picture. He wrote,

He then urged readers to look beyond short-term price movements and consider the broader picture, questioning the community’s understanding of Chainlink’s long-term potential. “What exactly do you folks think is going to happen once we have market structure signed into law and enterprises and governments begin using DLT en masse?” he asked.

The analyst goes on to highlight Chainlink’s Chainlink Runtime Environment. CRE is designed to allow developers to compose, deploy, and operate custom workflows seamlessly across both on-chain and off-chain systems.

Through its modular architecture, CRE breaks down the core functions of oracle networks into independent “capabilities,” each managed by its own Decentralized Oracle Network (DON). This reduces redundant infrastructure, enabling the Chainlink network to scale efficiently across thousands of blockchains.

Chainlink derivatives data reveal notable market activity, with trading volume reaching $1.46 billion, marking a 77.04% increase, while open interest declined by 7.76% to $645.45 million.

At the time of writing, LINK is trading at $16.55, reflecting an 8.77% drop over the past 24 hours and a 14.45% decline over the past week.

Despite the recent price pullback, trading volume has risen 17%, settling around $794 million, as the token hovers near the $17 resistance level.

Analysts suggest that a breakout above $17.50 could push LINK toward the $18.00 mark. According to crypto analyst Ali Martinez,
