Chainlink achieves SOC 2 Type 2 attestation, ISO 27001 certification
Chainlink Labs has completed a SOC 2 Type 2 examination conducted by Deloitte & Touche LLP, covering its Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP) and Data Feeds services. The attestation, finalized on April 21, 2026, makes Chainlink the only data and interoperability oracle platform to hold SOC 2 Type 2, SOC 2 Type 1, and ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certifications at the same time.
The scope of the SOC 2 Type 2 examination spans Chainlink’s core product suite: Price Feeds, SmartData, and CCIP. The examination was conducted following AICPA attestation standards, with focus areas of security, availability, and confidentiality controls.
This latest milestone builds on groundwork laid in August 2025, when Chainlink obtained its ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification and SOC 2 Type 1 attestation. The Type 1 report evaluated whether controls were properly designed at a single point in time. The Type 2 report, completed roughly eight months later, goes further by assessing whether those controls operated effectively over a sustained period.
Chainlink already counts Swift, Euroclear, JPMorgan, UBS, and Fidelity International among the institutions incorporating its services. Each of these organizations operates under stringent compliance requirements, and these certifications provide the kind of documented assurance their risk and compliance teams demand.
Chainlink’s CCIP has facilitated approximately $90 million in average weekly token transfers, while Chainlink oracles collectively support over $28 trillion in cumulative transaction value.
LINK’s price action in the immediate aftermath remained relatively flat, reflecting broader market conditions rather than any certification-specific sentiment.

The AI boom may follow the path of the 19th-century railway bubble, and builders may not be the ultimate winners
Goldman Sachs analyst Bobby Molavi compared the current situation to the 19th-century British railway mania: 500 companies spent more than the nation's annual income building 8,000 miles of railway, with most early investors losing out, while the real beneficiaries were the later "passengers." He pointed out that the current AI craze is driven by both debt and momentum, and that the S&P 500’s forward P/E ratio of 18x is only "a bit cheaper." Whether the builders can retain value is uncertain, and history does not offer an optimistic answer.

If Anthropic's IPO goes smoothly and the stock price rises next week, then everything remains the same for AI. Otherwise, some companies will go bankrupt.
The shrinking valuations of two major giants have triggered a chain reaction—investors are adopting more conservative revenue multiples for AI startups and are directly halting high-valuation financing for companies with zero revenue. Multiple venture capital firms have advised their portfolio companies to lower valuation expectations and to quickly build up cash reserves. Market participants warn that the outcome of Anthropic’s IPO will be a barometer for the industry: if successful, the boom will continue; if it fails, some companies may face elimination.

Corning (GLW.US) receives initial "Buy" rating from Jefferies! AI factories driving a fiber optic rush, with a potential global supply gap of up to 30%
For Corning, the recent profit growth mainly comes from the expansion of AI clusters. As the number of optical links crossing cabinets and campuses increases, customers need to deploy more optical fibers within limited conduit and cabinet space, thus driving demand for high-density optical cables and connection systems.
