LINK is an ERC20 standardized token based on the Ethereum blockchain. It is used to pay Chainlink node operators to retrieve data from off-chain data, format the data into a blockchain-readable format, off-chain computing, and ensure normal operation time. Chainlink tokens are part of the running node to prevent bad participants. The first decentralized Oracle network, allowing anyone to securely provide smart contracts, access critical external data, offline payments and any other API functions. Any user with a data feed, offline service (such as local payment), or any other API can directly provide it to the smart contract in exchange for LINK tokens. The ChainLink network is a distributed network of ChainLink nodes. They all directly convey the use of specific data, APIs and various offline payment functions to smart contracts. The Chainlink network consists of two independent parts, on-chain and off-chain, they must interact to provide services. The network is constructed in such a way that it can be upgraded so that its different components can be replaced when better technologies and technologies emerge. The on-chain components of the network filter oracles through service level agreements (SLAs) based on metrics requested by one party to the smart contract. Using these metrics, Chainlink collects responses to SLA queries, ranks them using reputation and aggregation models, and provides the final aggregate results of Chainlink queries that may be implemented into smart contracts. The off-chain components of the network consist of Oracle nodes connected to the Ethereum network, and these networks independently collect responses to offline requests. These off-chain nodes can be located in any industry. For example, off-chain nodes operated by the New York Stock Exchange can provide real-time and accurate transaction information for the Chainlink network, or the Visa network off-chain nodes can resolve transactions with consumers and suppliers through the Chainlink network. Interactive. Chainlink technology aims to integrate nodes from all these industries into a common network, which itself acts as a (low-cost) middleman, interpreting and correctly distributing data as needed. The Chainlink system will ensure that the results obtained from the oracles are accurate and allow the oracles to remain independent of the data they provide. Any data, payment, electronic signature or other API providers and individual developers can easily join the Chainlink network by connecting their familiar API to the network. Once the API is connected to ChainLink, the user becomes the ChainLink node operator and is responsible for connecting the API to the ChainLink network. In order to incentivize operators to provide API information, they are compensated in the LINK token to successfully complete the online link request. The project currently provides a fully distributed oracle network compatible with Bitcoin, Ethereum and Hyperledger. It is expected that other blockchains will be supported in the future, which will allow cross-chain connections between smart contracts and any other public or private chains, allowing anyone in the world to use the Chainlink network, regardless of its platform. All service providers will be able to securely provide smart contracts to access critical external data and possibly even non-chain payments.
