The Trust Dilemma: Overcoming LLM Hallucinations in Financial Services

In recent years, large language models (LLMs) have become synonymous with artificial intelligence (AI), spurring massive investment and interest. However, the impressive capabilities afforded by LLMs are offset by a severe caveat — the tendency to ‘hallucinate’ or generate false and misleading information.

Scaling (Re)Staking Protocols Cross-Chain With CCIP

Chainlink’s Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol is helping liquid staking and restaking protocols scale by enabling them to allow their users to stake their ETH directly from layer-2 networks—significantly expanding the accessibility of liquid staking tokens (LSTs) and liquid restaking tokens (LRTs) across the multi-chain ecosystem. This capability is uniquely enabled by CCIP’s support for Programmable Token Transfers, which enable the simultaneous transfer of tokens and data instructions cross-chain.

Unstructured Data in Global Finance: Solving a Decades-Long Industry Problem With AI, Oracles, and Blockchains

Corporate actions are integral to capital markets’ day-to-day operations, facilitating dividends, mergers, stock buybacks, and other processes that underpin corporate governance and capital allocation. However, communicating corporate actions to shareholders is plagued by costly errors, resource-intensive and duplicated practices, and unnecessary complexity as they are passed from issuers down a chain of various intermediaries, largely because they lack a verifiable structured data output that serves as a single source of truth for all market participants.

Secure Mint Explained: How Chainlink Proof of Reserve Enhances the Security of Stablecoins, Tokenized Assets, and Wrapped Tokens

Decentralized finance (DeFi) provides an alternative framework for the creation of non-custodial financial services, combining digital representations of value (tokens) with autonomous code execution (smart contracts). While DeFi is interoperable with a wide range of tokens, the fastest growing categories of tokens include stablecoins, tokenized assets, and wrapped assets.

Blockchain Interoperability Challenges Explained

The reality of Web3 is multi-chain, where hundreds to eventually thousands of different blockchains co-exist, each with different asset issuers, user bases, applications, and technological strengths and weaknesses. The multi-chain approach has overtaken the single unified ledger idea because it’s more scalable, flexible, and practical given the wide range of technologies, stakeholders, and interests involved.

How Chainlink Enables Unified Golden Records for Tokenized Assets

Tokenization—the representation of real-world assets (RWAs) as digital tokens on a blockchain—is “the next generation for markets,” according to Larry Fink, CEO of BlackRock. In fact, 97% of asset managers agree that tokenization will revolutionize asset management, with the Boston Consulting Group forecasting the market size for tokenization to reach $16 trillion by 2030.
