CHAINSAFE RECEIVES GRANT TO NATIVELY INTEGRATE CHAINLINK INTO COSMOS SDK.
Chainlink is excited to announce that ChainSafe, a leading blockchain protocol and infrastructure development firm, has been awarded a Chainlink community grant to perform a native integration of Chainlink into the Cosmos-SDK. The grant will support the many smart contract development teams within the Cosmos ecosystem wanting to build externally connected decentralized applications on Tendermint-based blockchains using Chainlink oracles. Once complete, the Cosmos ecosystem will be able to support a wide range of DeFi, NFT, gaming, and insurance products and markets thanks to seamless and native access to Chainlink’s time-tested and fully functional oracle networks.
ABOUT CHAINSAFE
ChainSafe is a leading blockchain protocol and infrastructure development firm that provides engineering support for a wide range of open-source software projects. Supported by a team of software developers with diverse technical backgrounds, ChainSafe has extensive experience building blockchain-focused software, including the Ethereum 2.0 Typescript implementation Lodestar, the Filecoin node Rust implementation Forest, the Polkadot host Golang implementation Gossamer, the Rust implementation of Mina, the Ethereum Javascript API Web3.js, and more. Chainsafe previously received a Chainlink community grant to expand the Chainlink oracle pallet on Polkadot, proving their knowledge of the Chainlink tech stack and heterogeneous blockchain ecosystems.
ABOUT COSMOS
Cosmos is an ever-expanding ecosystem of interconnected apps and services, built for a decentralized future. Cosmos apps and services connect using IBC, the Inter-Blockchain Communication (IBC) protocol, allowing users to freely exchange assets and data across sovereign, decentralized blockchains. The Cosmos-SDK is a highly flexible framework for building blockchains, which is based on Tendermint core and can interoperate through IBC. By integrating Chainlink into the Cosmos ecosystem, over 247+ applications/services and $78B+ in digital assets gain access to high-quality external data made available through decentralized oracle networks that are highly available, precise, and tamper-proof.
