Aptos Adopts Chainlink Standard for Secure Data Feeds

Aptos made an important update today by adding Chainlink Data Feeds to its network, making it easier for developers to create secure applications. 

Chainlink is a well-known tool that helps connect blockchains to real-world data, delivering reliable, accurate, and tamper-proof data to decentralized applications (dApps). This ensures security and trust in the information used by these apps.

The announcement said that Aptos now offers developers access to high-quality data they can depend on for their applications by integrating Chainlink Data Feeds.

What does this bring to Aptos developers?

• High-Quality Data: Chainlink allows access to premium, accurate data by managing API keys and logins, bringing in data from trusted sources.

• Reliable Nodes: Chainlink’s Data Feeds are backed by independent oracle nodes (trusted machines) that have a history of providing secure data even during high network traffic or congestion.

• Decentralized Infrastructure: Chainlink’s system is decentralized, which means there is no single point of failure, making the data delivery more reliable and secure.

• Transparent Performance: Developers can check how the data is performing in real time, ensuring they know how accurate and reliable it is.

Aptos is recognized for its scalability, security, and high throughput, making it a great match for this new integration. The platform uses the Move programming language to ensure fast, secure transactions, and the integration with Chainlink’s tamper-proof data further strengthens its capabilities.

This update provides developers with the latest tools and standards, enabling them to build cutting-edge solutions within Aptos’ Web3 ecosystem.

According to Thodoris Karakostas from Chainlink Labs, this integration will help developers build more reliable applications on Aptos. Bashar Lazaar from the Aptos Foundation emphasized that this aligns with their vision of creating a scalable and secure Web3 ecosystem.
