The layer-2 race is not only about speed and low fees anymore. It is also about how easily assets and messages can move between chains. Chainlink’s CCIP integration with zkSync Era lands directly in that part of the mark
The post Over $7.2 Billion Migrates From LayerZero To Chainlink CCIP As Mantle Joins The Exodus appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
The multi-billion-dollar renovation of crypto’s cross-chain plumbing just picked up speed. More than $7.2 billion in total value has now migrated from LayerZero to Chainlink’s Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP), a wave that now includes Mantle, the Ethereum layer-2 network, as its most recent participant. The flows were detailed in the original report on the migration event. The movement isn’t a one-off. Projects Kelp and Lombard each brought over $1 billion when they made the switch earlier. Solv Protocol, Virtuals, Re, and tokenized assets from Kraken have also shifted their cross-chain messaging to CCIP. The sheer scale turns a series of protocol decisions into something that looks like a structural preference pivot—not just a change of vendor, but a bet on which interoperability standard will anchor the next phase of on-chain finance.

Arbitrum will get 10% of net protocol income of Robinhood Chain according to Arbitrum Expansion Program revenue-sharing model. Robinhood Chain helps develop Arbitrum enterprise ecosystem and expand stock tokens, DeFi solutions, and on-chain finance products. Arbitrum has generated a new stream of revenue post-launch of the public mainnet of the Robinhood Chain using their Layer-2 blockchain technology. Co-founder of Offchain Labs, Steven Goldfeder, clarified that Robinhood Chain and other qualified Layer-2 networks using Arbitrum technology will be receiving protocol revenue.

The post Solana Sees DEX Rival Robinhood Chain Surge to 29% of Its Volume appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Solana News Solana’s dominance in decentralized exchange activity faces a fresh challenger after Robinhood Chain, the brokerage’s new layer-2 network, rapidly scaled its trading volume within a single day. On-chain data shows Robinhood Chain recorded roughly $563.9 million in spot DEX volume on July 8, climbing to about 29.1% of Solana’s tally. Solana itself processed close to $1.94 billion over the same window, keeping a commanding lead of roughly 3.4 times its emerging rival. The comparison draws on aggregated on-chain trade data, offering a direct read of settlement activity as capital rotates toward newly launched venues in the DeFi landscape. The pace of Robinhood Chain’s ascent underscores how quickly liquidity can migrate between networks. Just one day earlier, on July 7, the chain had logged only $58.9 million in spot volume — equal to about 2.6% of Solana’s $2.25 bill

Market Context: Why LINK is Moving Now LINK at $7.75 is a compression play, not a momentum trade. The asset has been gutted from its prior highs — now sitting nearly $2 below its 200-day SMA at $9.62 — and the market hasn’t found a reason to care yet. The 24-hour gain of 0.47% is not a bullish signal; it’s a market holding its breath. What matters right now is the structural context. CoinCodex put out a $10.16 year-end target on July 5th — a 31% rally from where we’re trading. DigitalCoinPrice, publishing just days earlier, is far more pedestrian, calling for LINK to reach $7.86 by year-end — essentially rounding
