Is Chainlink (LINK) Quietly Locking Down Enterprise and L2 Rails?

World Chain switched on Chainlink’s cross-chain rails today. Canton, an institutional blockchain, also elevated Chainlink to “Super Validator.” Together, they expand Chainlink’s reach across consumer and regulated networks within two days. World Chain adopted Chainlink’s Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol and the Cross-Chain Token standard for Worldcoin’s WLD. The launch enables native transfers between World Chain and Ethereum while standardizing how tokens move across chains. Chainlink said Data Streams also went live to supply market data.
