Independent node operators retrieve and validate off-chain data and enable smart contracts to reliably pull data from them. Users send assets and/or messages on-chain to CCIP, which then transfers them to the specified address and chain. This dashboard only tracks Chainlink CCIP.

This dashboard only tracks Chainlink CCIP. Chainlink is a decentralized oracle network providing off-chain computations to smart contracts and publicly launched Chainlink Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP) in July 2023. Chainlink was founded by Sergey Nazarov and Steve Ellis and launched in 2017.
