Chainlink Nears $100B TVS with ICE Partnership and Liquidity Expansion

Chainlink is making significant progress toward a total value secured (TVS) of $100 billion, having already surpassed $93 billion, according to the project’s official account on X. This TVS metric, which represents the total value of assets and borrowed funds locked up in DeFi platforms using Chainlink’s oracle infrastructure, reflects the expanding adoption of onchain financial systems across hundreds of DeFi protocols [1]. The growth, which has accelerated in May–August 2025, is attributed to increased capital inflows, evolving protocols, and broader awareness of cryptocurrency and DeFi applications [1].

The TVS surge is accompanied by strong performance in the Chainlink token (LINK). According to TradingView data, LINK has experienced a notable price increase in early August, reaching an all-time high. The price has moved above the upper Bollinger Band, a technical indicator often associated with overbought conditions [1]. The token’s Relative Strength Index (RSI) currently stands at 68.58, suggesting that LINK is nearing overbought territory. Analysts warn that while the bullish sentiment persists, a short-term pullback could occur if the upward momentum slows [1].

In a strategic move to enhance data reliability and attract institutional participation, Chainlink has partnered with ICE Markets, a leading provider of global financial data. This collaboration enables Chainlink to integrate ICE’s Consolidated Feed, which aggregates data from over 300 global exchanges, including forex and precious metals markets [1]. By bringing this high-quality data on-chain, Chainlink strengthens the accuracy and trustworthiness of DeFi platforms, thereby supporting broader adoption by institutional investors. Over 2,000 banks and asset managers can now access critical market data through this secure, tamper-proof infrastructure [1].

To further support network growth and liquidity, Chainlink has introduced the “Chainlink Reserve,” a strategically funded pool of LINK tokens. This reserve, built through enterprise partnerships and on-chain revenue, enhances liquidity and ensures the scalability of the Chainlink network. This development aligns with the broader trend of DeFi platforms seeking to improve their financial infrastructure and attract more institutional capital [1].

The combination of strong TVS growth, strategic data partnerships, and liquidity enhancements positions Chainlink as a key player in the evolving DeFi ecosystem. As decentralized finance continues to gain traction, the project’s ability to provide secure and reliable data will likely play a central role in shaping the future of onchain finance [1].
