Mint Blockchain × Chainlink Strategic Partnership: Empowering Cross-Chain Innovation

We are thrilled to announce the strategic partnership between Mint Blockchain and Chainlink, the industry-leading decentralized oracle network. Through this collaboration, Mint has officially integrated Chainlink’s Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP), becoming one of the Layer2 networks adopting this cutting-edge cross-chain communication standard.

This integration enables smart contracts in the Mint ecosystem to securely access reliable off-chain data and interact with other blockchains. It marks a significant leap forward for NFTs, DeFi, and cross-chain applications, and accelerates Mint’s mission to expand and innovate within the Web3 ecosystem.

A key milestone of this partnership is Mint Blockchain’s integration of Chainlink CCIP, a universal, open-source standard for cross-chain communication. CCIP is designed to connect hundreds of public and private chains, enabling seamless and secure token and data transfers across networks.

With CCIP, applications on Mint can:

  • Safely access and transmit off-chain data
  • Achieve multi-chain interoperability
  • Build more advanced, composable protocols
  • Rely on trusted infrastructure for cross-chain communication

This integration significantly enhances the security, reliability, and flexibility of cross-chain development on Mint, giving developers the tools to push the boundaries of what’s possible in Web3.

Chainlink is the most widely adopted decentralized oracle network in Web3, powering a wide array of use cases across DeFi, insurance, NFTs, gaming, and enterprise blockchain solutions.

It offers secure, decentralized, and transparent infrastructure that addresses many of the core challenges in today’s blockchain landscape:

  • Decentralized and tamper-proof guarantees
  • Seamless cross-chain compatibility
  • Secure and transparent price feeds
  • Verifiable Randomness (VRF)
  • Data signing and reputation systems
  • Enterprise-grade scalability

Chainlink is the industry standard for building, accessing, and providing oracle services needed for hybrid smart contracts on any blockchain. Chainlink’s decentralized oracle networks enable smart contracts to securely connect with any external data source or off-chain computation.

To date, Chainlink has helped secure tens of billions of dollars across leading DeFi protocols, insurance applications, gaming projects, and more, while also providing global enterprises and data providers with a unified gateway to all blockchains.

Mint Blockchain is an Ethereum-native Layer2 network and a core member of the OP Superchain. Mint is dedicated to connecting global consumers through NFTs and building a decentralized consumer payment network — where NFTs become a new way of life. Launched in July 2024, the Mint mainnet has now supporting 100+ applications, over 6 million wallet addresses, and 230,000+ active users.

With a strong focus on NFT adoption and real-world use cases, Mint is unlocking the full value of NFTs and accelerating their mainstream adoption across the Web3 space.

  • The Bank of Japan is reportedly planning further interest rate hikes; some officials believe the neutral interest rate will be higher than 1%.

    according to insiders, Bank of Japan officials believe that before the current rate hike cycle ends, interest rates are likely to rise above 0.75%, indicating that there may be more rate hikes after next week's increase. These insiders said that officials believe that even if rates rise to 0.75%, the Bank of Japan has not yet reached the neutral interest rate level. Some officials already consider 1% to still be below the neutral interest rate level. Insiders stated that even if the Bank of Japan updates its neutral rate estimates based on the latest data, it currently does not believe that this range will significantly narrow. Currently, the Bank of Japan's estimate for the nominal neutral interest rate range is about 1% to 2.5%. Insiders said that Bank of Japan officials also believe there may be errors in the upper and lower limits of this range itself. (Golden Ten)

    HSBC Securities predicts the Federal Reserve will maintain interest rates stable at the 3.5%-3.75% range set on Wednesday for the next two years. Previously, Federal Reserve policymakers lowered rates by 25 basis points with a split vote.

"We believe the FOMC will keep the federal funds rate target range unchanged at 3.50%-3.75% throughout 2026 and 2027, but as the economy evolves, as in the past, it is always necessary to pay close attention to the significant two-way risks facing this outlook."
