Chainlink enables your smart contracts to reach their full potential. Smart contracts need to interface with the data feeds, events and widely accepted payment methods that centralized digital agreements already rely on to provide value. By providing the building blocks needed by complex smart contracts in the form of critical inputs and key outputs, we seek to enable the next generation of smart contracts, which will step beyond tokenization, to become the dominant form of digital agreement.
Data providers can sell data through their existing APIs to the Chainlink Network in less than an hour. Chainlink abstracts away all the complexities around running nodes and handling cryptocurrency payments, allowing data providers to monetize their existing infrastructure and focus solely on providing quality data.
