In 2024, Chainlink solidified its position as the standard for verifiable data and cross-chain interoperability in DeFi, while also working with the world's largest financial institutions and governments on adopting blockchain technology. In 2025, we'll continue to build novel solutions for DeFi and expand Chainlink's market share, further the expansion into banking and capital markets by enabling high-quality institutional use cases, introduce the Chainlink Runtime Environment (CRE) to a broader array of users, and more. @SergeyNazarov provides his insights into the major milestones of 2024 and a look ahead for 2025:

THE ETHEREUM WAR SONG I’m releasing this song as The Ethereum Bard in defense and support of my beloved decentralized leader @VitalikButerin @AyaMiyagotchi , the great Eclectic Dreamer, has inspired beautiful values like subtraction and the infinite garden. Those were first taught to me in person as a Devcon 6 scholar. Those values proved true in allowing me to co-lead the @opensourceorch at @EFDevcon 6 and 7, volunteer at over a dozen @ETHGlobal events, and main venue @EthereumDenver , @zuitzerland, @EthPrague, and @EthCC are the next places OSO will go. If you remain face to face and not hiding behind your screen or at side parties you see @ethereum is stronger than ever. Being based in Zuzalu inspired pop-up villages for over a year I can truly attest to Vitalik’s strong character and values. Written on 1.20.25 while at @ZuGramaIndia in Kerala, India after watching the United States presidential inauguration. I felt the opposite of @elonmusk with the joy of @POTUS saying we are going to mars wen crypto x twitter forgot WAGMI and started pointing fingers at some of our leaders: my big sister Aya and my hero Vitalik.
