Chainlink’s Major Partnerships and Technical Indicators Signal Potential LINK Rally
Leading decentralized oracle network Chainlink (LINK) has been making notable progress in early 2025; its native token shows great increasing momentum among new alliances and technology innovations. Right now, LINK/USD is trading around $18, an over 21% decline over the past 24 hours.
Chainlink’s Major Partnership Boosts Institutional Adoption
Usual, a large stablecoin issuer with more than $1.2 billion in assets, has now embraced Chainlink’s infrastructure for their USD0 and USD0++ stablecoins. Using several Chainlink services—Price Feeds, Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP), and Proof of Reserve—this integration improves the security and openness of Usual’s ecosystem.
Particularly in the fast developing tokenized real-world assets (RWA) market, the cooperation shows Chainlink’s increasing impact in the institutional finance industry. Cofounder of Usual, Adli Takkal Bataille, underlined the need of this integration for hastening the acceptance of their stablecoins and allowing safe cross-chain markets.
Innovation in DeFi Yield Tracking
With the release of its DeFi Yield Index (CDY), a fresh instrument meant to aggregate and standardize market-wide DeFi lending rates, Chainlink has further improved its market position. Driven by blockchain indexing technology of Space and Time, this invention seeks to increase capital efficiency and give conventional financial institutions better access to DeFi yield possibilities.
