Chainlink integrated into Canton Network as a super validator

The post Chainlink integrated into Canton Network as a super validator appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Chainlink brings oracles and CCIP to Canton’s institutional blockchain. Canton processes $280B daily repos and secures $6T in tokenised assets. BNP Paribas, HSBC, and P2P.org recently joined the Canton Foundation. Chainlink has joined the Canton Network as a super validator, deepening the blockchain’s institutional focus and bringing a suite of oracle services to its privacy-driven architecture. The move aligns Canton’s ambitions for large-scale tokenisation and regulated financial activity with Chainlink’s proven infrastructure in securing real-world data and cross-chain communication. The Chainlink integration into the Canton Network As part of the agreement, Chainlink Labs will operate as a super validator on Canton. In this role, it will run a combined node that functions as both a domain validator and a synchronizer, giving it a hand in ordering and finalising cross-domain transactions.
