Celsius Secures Backend Pricing of Crypto Using The Chainlink, A Major Leap in CeFi Decentralization
Celsius is now leveraging the industry-leading Chainlink Price Feeds to increase reliability of price feed for backend systems. The deeper integration with Chainlink involves the use and sponsorship of over 90 decentralized price feeds, making it one of the first times a CeFi platform is issuing loans to users based on a fully decentralized and transparent pricing mechanism.
Celsius selected Chainlink to help facilitate their move towards decentralization because its Price Feeds are thoroughly time-tested in production, successfully securing tens of billions of dollars in value through even the most extreme market volatility. Chainlink Price Feeds supply high-quality data on all platform assets and are backed by robust infrastructure that has proven to be highly resilient during unexpected events, such as top cryptocurrency exchanges experiencing downtime, flash crashes, and data manipulation attacks. This is one of the many steps Celsius plans to take towards decentralization.
The result of the integration is a seamless union between CeFi and DeFi — Celsius continues to provide users with an impeccable customer experience for accessing low-cost loans and earning high yield, while Chainlink decentralizes a core part of the Celsius backend system to bring unprecedented guarantees around fair and transparent pricing of crypto assets.
