OVERVIEW OF MINING

• Mining is the process by which new coins are entered into


circulation, but it is also a critical component of the
maintenance and development of the blockchain ledger. It is
performed using very sophisticated computers that solve
extremely complex computational math problems.
OVERVIEW
• Chainlink is a decentralized network of nodes that provide data
and information from off-blockchain sources to on-blockchain
smart contracts via oracles.

• LINK tokens are the digital asset token used to pay for services
on this network.
HISTORY
• Chainlink traces its origins back to September 2014, when its
parent company SmartContract.com was founded to
create a bridge between external data sources and public
blockchains. The team eventually developed a product called
Chainlink that allows smart contracts to connect to data feeds
from any web API and data source.

SMART CONTRACTS
• Smart contracts are pre-specified agreements on the blockchain
that evaluate information and automatically execute when
certain conditions are met.

• For smart contracts to craft agreements beyond those that


pertain to data found on the blockchain, they require off-chain
data in an on-chain format.
ORACLE
• An oracle is software known as ‘middleware’ that acts as an
intermediary, translating data from the real world to smart
contracts on the blockchain and back again.

• However, a single centralized oracle creates the very problem a


decentralized, blockchain-secured smart contract aims to solve
— a central point of weakness.
• Chainlink has created a way to reliably, and efficiently, provide
accurate data to smart contracts on smart-contract enabled
blockchains.
