Chainlink Leads RWA Tokenization with 351 GitHub Events in 30 Days, LINK Price Surges 11%

Chainlink has maintained its leadership position in the development of real-world asset (RWA) tokenization within the cryptocurrency sector. According to analytics provider Santiment, Chainlink registered 351 GitHub events over the past 30 days, placing it ahead of other major projects in this space. Avalanche (AVAX) recorded 183.4 GitHub events during the same period, securing second place, while Stellar (XLM) followed in third position with 144.57 events.

Santiment's tracking method excludes routine updates, focusing on substantive GitHub activity. Chainlink has consistently held the top position in Santiment’s RWA development rankings throughout this year. Its monthly activity count often substantially exceeds the project in second place, indicating a high level of development activity.

Analysts frequently view high development activity as a positive indicator. Projects demonstrating consistent work may be closer to releasing new functions. This activity level also reduces concerns about potential exit scams, as sustained effort suggests ongoing commitment. At the time of reporting, LINK trades at $15.21, ranking as the 17th largest cryptocurrency by market value. The token’s price shows an increase exceeding 6% over the last day and has also risen more than 11% across the past week, reflecting tangible signs of progress recognized by traders.

In another major development, BlackRock has chosen Chainlink’s Proof of Reserve (PoR) to provide real-time verification for tokenized ETF products launched on the Ethereum mainnet. This integration is being praised for enhancing investor transparency, risk management, and regulatory compliance. Additionally, Chainlink Labs announced the availability of Chainlink Data Streams through Google Cloud Marketplace, allowing developers in traditional Web2 environments to access real-time blockchain data and integrate it directly into financial modeling and analytics tools. This significantly expands Chainlink’s reach beyond crypto-native developers.

The updated staking mechanism for LINK has achieved over 60% token participation, enhancing network security while rewarding long-term holders. The protocol offers dynamic rewards based on node performance and protocol fees from data delivery services and CCIP activity. This high level of staking participation further solidifies Chainlink’s position as a leading decentralized oracle network, especially within the rapidly growing sectors of tokenized real-world assets (RWAs), DeFi, and cross-chain interoperability.
