Mantle migrates Super Portal from LayerZero to Chainlink

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.

The post Over $7.2 billion have migrated from LayerZero to Chainlink CCIP as Mantle joins exodus appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. More than $7.2 billion in cross-chain and wrapped assets have migrated from LayerZero to Chainlink’s Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP) since May, with Mantle becoming the latest project to replace LayerZero for high-value token transfers. Mantle said it is migrating its Super Portal, which it co-developed with Bybit, from LayerZero’s Omnichain Fungible Token (OFT) standard to Chainlink’s Cross-Chain Token (CCT) standard. LayerZero and Chainlink CCIP both let token holders move assets between blockchains, a basic requirement as crypto markets spread across competing networks. The infrastructure matters because bridges between different blockchains have become one of crypto’s largest security risks, with a single failure able to expose hundreds of millions of dollars in user assets. The portal enables transfers of the MNT token between Ethereum

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 LINK Price Prediction: $7.75 Is the Line in the Sand — Break It or Get Washed Out appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Lawrence Jengar Jul 09, 2026 08:16 Chainlink is coiling at $7.75 with smart money loaded 74.6% long and open interest quietly expanding — a confirmed daily close above $7.95 targets $8.50–$9.00 by late August, but a rejection here r… 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

The post Chainlink Community Lead Slams Ripple-Kansas Deal, Calls XRP ‘Bank-Themed Memecoin’ appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Ripple’s landmark five-year sports sponsorship with the University of Kansas may have delighted XRP enthusiasts, but not everyone within the cryptocurrency community is buying the hype.  Zach Rynes, who is widely known as the Chainlink community lead, took to social media to slam what he perceives as a rather desperate marketing stunt.  He believes that there is a disconnect between Ripple’s corporate actions and the retail investors holding its native token. Chainlink Community Lead Slams Ripple-Kansas Deal, Calls XRP ‘Bank-Themed Memecoin’ Ripple-Operated Rail Dropped by Major Software Company As reported by U.Today, Ripple recently announced that the XRP logo will be prominently featured on the uniforms of the Kansas Jayhawks’ football and basketball programs.  In response to the announcement, Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse celebrated it as a “rare moment w

The post LINK Price Prediction: Bears Own the Chart Until LINK Reclaims $7.90 appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. James Ding Jul 08, 2026 08:36 Chainlink is bleeding with a 4% daily drop, sitting at $7.59 below every major moving average with momentum fully exhausted — the $7.43 support is the last line before a flush toward $7.28, but a c… The Immediate Setup Four percent down in a single session, and LINK closed within a penny of its daily low at $7.58. That’s not consolidation — that’s distribution. At $7.59, Chainlink is trading below every meaningful moving average on the board: below the 7-day SMA at $7.90, the 20-day at $7.65, the 50-day at $8.19, and deeply underwater against the 200-day SMA parked at $9.65. The short-term EMAs aren’t offering any comfort either — the 12 at $7.75 and the 26 at $7.83 have both flipped from support to overhead resistance, capping any intraday bounce before it can even get started. Momentum has gone flat in the worst possible wa
