The Annual Super Bowl Squares using Chainlink Functions and VRF! (only 36 remaining)
@mykcryptodev assured me next year he will build this on @Chainlink Runtime Environment (CRE). 🙂

Super Bowl Squares for the big game are open! 5 USDC per square Payouts on score changes & quarter scores Grab your square in the links below!

To be competitive, @Chainlink CRE needed to be all of the above AND cheaper and easier to develop on.
It is.
English
Most are running it centrally on AWS. It's cheap, fast, and it works 99% of the time.
Convincing folks to use a decentralized, more secure, and more reliable alternative is noble but it's not enough.
English
Spoiler Alert: Nearly every blockchain based project runs off-chain infrastructure to power their application. (even the big ones)
And that's a good thing. But...
English
If you're developing CRE workflows in Cursor, consider importing and indexing the @Chainlink docs.

After 4 years, I continue to see @chainlinklabs working on the most important problems in this space.
I'm excited to share my experience at @cornell_tech with @wasifmoramen on Friday!
Wasif@wasifmoramen
our next @chainlink university activation will be with the Cornell University Graduate School at Cornell Tech @MaxwellMelcher and I will be leading a fireside chat on how to launch your career in Web3 if you know Max you know he is one of the most knowledgable people in this space...cant wait to dive into his background and how he built his career in Web3 RSVP Below: Cornell Students Only luma.com/cl_cornellNYC01

Bitcoin up or down?
15 minute up/down crypto polymarkets now live.
Powered & secured by @Chainlink 🤝
Polymarket@Polymarket
JUST IN: Bitcoin will either go up or down today.

Anyone checked on Chainlink? Oh... 🙂

AWS is down and then the internet stops working. But the blockchain, it never goe ... wait a minute. Scratch that. This sector is a joke. Everyone preaching decentralization and censorship resistance but in reality ... it's all 100% reliant on the cloud.

It's a little disappointing to see incidents like this. Especially after having built solutions to prevent this exact situation.
Here's an example of a stablecoin mint function that checks a @Chainlink Proof of Reserve feed before increasing the supply. Developed in the summer of 2022.
Sam@0xCryptoSam
If this "fat finger" issue happened to Tether or Cicrle, BTC would plummet 50% in a single day. A "proof of reserves" issuance cap should be required under the GENIUS bill (if it is already?)

Another masterclass by the Chainlink network this evening. Despite high price volatility and gas costs spiking, Chainlink continued to deliver reports reliably on-chain.

A special shoutout to @chainlink , reminds you why you go with the blue chip of oracles always for trust and scale DeFi feels safer when it’s linked

The Chainlink Runtime Environment (CRE) allows developers to compose different Chainlink capabilities into customized workflows.
Instead of integrating a prepackaged service, developers can choose to build their own.

@negroprogrammer Speed limitation on the west side highway should be revisited. Feels like a resistance ride while getting passed by the regular citi bikes.

@soby0x I wonder why a more moderate alternative to Reddit hasn’t appeared. Reddit certainly has mindshare but it’s become politically toxic even in channels unrelated to politics.

U.S. Department of Commerce 🤝 Chainlink
This is just one of many endeavors Chainlink has with the U.S. government, and another major signal that Chainlink delivers the highest levels of data quality and security needed for real-world blockchain use cases with the world’s largest financial institutions and governments.
DeFi can now access the same foundational data that powers traditional markets, unlocking never-before-seen automated trading strategies, real-time prediction markets, and new types of digital instruments.
Adoption of on-chain systems will only keep accelerating !

We're excited to announce that Chainlink and the United States Department of Commerce (@CommerceGov) have worked together to bring U.S. government macroeconomic data onchain. blog.chain.link/united-states-… These new Chainlink Data Feeds securely deliver critical information around key U.S. economy metrics onchain, sourced from the Bureau of Economic Analysis (@BEA_News). Metrics include the Real Gross Domestic Product (GDP), Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) Price Index, and Real Final Sales to Private Domestic Purchasers. Bringing key U.S. government data onchain unlocks innovative use cases for blockchain markets, including: • Automated trading strategies • Increased composability of tokenized assets • Issuance of new types of digital assets • Real-time prediction markets for crowdsourced intelligence • Transparent dashboards powered by immutable data • DeFi protocol risk management based on macroeconomic factors These datasets are updated monthly or quarterly as applicable, and are initially being made available across ten blockchain ecosystems, starting with Arbitrum, Avalanche, Base, Botanix, Ethereum, Linea, Mantle, Optimism, Sonic, and ZKsync. Support for additional blockchain networks can be incorporated over time based on user demand. This development builds upon Chainlink’s accelerated work with the U.S. government in 2025, including meeting with several key officials and regulators to make policy recommendations that are advancing the growth of the blockchain industry.

One of my favorite books. One of the great aspects of the Martian culture was their ability to truly think (grok) on a question. If you asked a Martian, "What do you think of this artwork?" they could take years to respond. But you could trust that their answer was final and reflected profound, thoughtful consideration.
English
His name will be Valentine, after the protagonist in Stranger in a Strange Land, the Heinlein book where our AI name “Grok” was created.
To Grok something means to understand deeply and empathetically.

What should we name our male @Grok companion?
