Fireside Chat on DeFi's Institutional Adoption
summary
Claim: oracles evolve from data feeds into cross‑chain bridges, identity and AI oracles and an orchestration layer called Chainlink Runtime Environment (CRE). Tooling: CCIP programmable token transfers can append instructions and identity to tokens and execute deposits on destination chains. Evidence: Chainlink secures roughly 83% of Ethereum DeFi and reports ~$90B+ secured today. Demos: Mastercard card‑to‑onchain payment and a Australia/Hong Kong CBDC‑to‑tokenized fund flow run in production. Prediction: on‑chain assets head toward hundreds of billions to near a trillion by 2026.
