Taiko, a permissionless, decentralized Ethereum-equivalent based rollup designed to scale Ethereum, has announced its collaboration with Chainlink Data Streams, an industry-standard oracle platform. The purpose of this strategic partnership is to enhance reliability and security for decentralized finance (DeFi) for next-generation on-chain applications on Taiko.

Both decentralized platforms are trying to empower the common vision for maximum reliability and security by providing tangible performance advantages. This landmark integration helps developers build advanced DeFi applications such as lending protocols, derivatives platforms, and other decentralized applications (dApps).

At this point, Taiko will utilize its Ethereum validators for transaction grading, ensuring maximum decentralization and hindrance to censorship. Taiko has revealed this news through its official X account.

Taiko-Chainlink Integration Paves the Way for Institutional-Grade DeFi

Joaquin Mendes, COO at Taiko, said, “Adopting Chainlink Data Streams as our official oracle solution ensures the Taiko ecosystem has access to secure, high-fidelity market data. As the most Ethereum-aligned L2, this integration positions us to accelerate institutional adoption and attract smart capital beyond traditional DeFi use cases. Chainlink’s industry-standard infrastructure supports our vision of bringing real-world applications on-chain while maintaining our commitment to decentralization.

Both platforms use their relevant expertise to boost the advancement in the DeFi ecosystem for the next generation. Furthermore, this integration takes Taiko to capitalize on the coming wave of institutional blockchain adoption. In this digital world, traditional finance finds a secure, decentralized infrastructure for tokenized assets and smart contracts. Chainlink plays its role by providing a strong foundation for institutional-grade applications.

Chainlink’s Proven Infrastructure Fuels Taiko’s next-Gen DeFi Protocols

Chainlink Data Streams delivers important technical features for DeFi protocol on Taiko, such as liquidity-weighted bid-ask spreads for increased risk management, elastic report schemes that catch deeper market data, and proven $25+ trillion in on-chain transaction volume around leading DeFi applications.

At this point, Johann Eid, Chief Business Officer at Chainlink Labs, stated, “We’re thrilled that Taiko has chosen Chainlink Data Streams as its official oracle solution to accelerate the growth of its DeFi ecosystem. Via sub-second, highly secure market data delivered through Chainlink’s proven infrastructure that’s already securing over $100 billion across DeFi, Taiko is now positioned to unlock significant DeFi innovation and support institutional-grade applications with the reliability they demand.”

Coinbase Stock Touches $360 After Positive Q3 Earnings, New Acquisition — Details

After what started as a disappointing week, the Coinbase stock (Ticker: COIN) seems to be back on a recovery path. COIN briefly climbed above the $360 level on Friday, October 31st, rallying on the positive earnings report and new developments from this week. According to a new report, Coinbase has also entered into late-stage talks to purchase stablecoin infrastructure BVNK in an estimated $2 billion deal. This move represents a play in a much larger stablecoin industry push by the largest US-based cryptocurrency exchange. Exchange Closes In On $2 Billion BVNK Deal On Friday, Bloomberg reported that Coinbase is looking to complete a $2-billion acquisition of the London-based BVNK, pending due diligence. The San Francisco-based cryptocurrency company expects to close this deal before the year’s end or early next year, according to one of the sources close to the matter.

One of the cited sources also revealed that while the deal is already in late-stage talks, terms may change, and the deal is still at risk of collapsing.  A Coinbase spokesperson told Bloomberg in a statement: We don’t comment on rumors or speculation. Driven by our mission to expand economic freedom globally, we actively explore various opportunities—whether through building, acquiring, partnering, or investing – to advance our mission. This latest Bloomberg report somewhat adds credence to the Fortune report—from earlier this week—that disclosed that Coinbase holds exclusivity with BVNK for takeover talks after winning the bidding war. Mastercard was reportedly also engaged in talks with the stablecoin infrastructure before setting its sights on Zerohash, another crypto startup, for over $1.5 billion.  Hence, this BVNK purchase by Coinbase, if completed, would represent the latest one in a growing list of stablecoin-related deals in recent months. These developments come on the back of the introduction of the first crypto regulation (the GENIUS Stablecoin Act) in the United States. Coinbase Posts Strong Earnings In Q3 2025 While Coinbase’s Q3 earnings call trended for an unusual reason, after CEO Brian Armstrong dropped a list of crypto buzzwords relevant to the Mentions Market, the crypto company delivered strong profits in the last quarter.  The US-based crypto company reported about $1.9 billion in revenue and a bottom line of approximately $432.6 million in 2025’s third quarter, representing a 55% year-over-year increase. Meanwhile, the firm’s Bitcoin holdings have also jumped by 2,772 BTC to 14,458. As of this writing, the Coinbase stock (COIN) is valued at about $343.78, reflecting a 4.6% jump in the past 24 hours. While the company’s stock traded as high as $361 on Friday, it witnessed a correction before closing the day around the $340 mark.
