Chainlink is a decentralized oracle network that allows smart contracts on various blockchains to securely and reliably access real-world data, APIs, and traditional payment systems. This connection is essential for many smart contract applications, particularly in decentralized finance (DeFi), where real-time market data and off-chain events play a crucial role.
