Solana Becomes First Non-EVM Chain to Integrate Chainlink’s CCIP

  • Chainlink launched its Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol on the Solana mainnet on May 19, 2025, enabling secure cross-chain communication.
  • Following the v1.6 upgrade, CCIP has expanded its reach by connecting to a blockchain network outside of the Ethereum Virtual Machine ecosystem for the first time, thereby enhancing its cross-chain interoperability beyond EVM-compatible chains.
  • The integration enables Solana to connect using the Chainlink Cross-Chain Token Standard, facilitating interoperability with multiple major networks—including Ethereum and several popular Layer 2 and sidechain platforms—as well as with bridging services like OpenOcean and XSwap.
  • Chainlink stated that over $18 billion in liquidity is accessible through CCIP on Solana, with projects representing more than $19 billion in market cap preparing to use this infrastructure.
  • This deployment aims to boost Solana’s cross-chain DeFi capabilities and liquidity, positioning it as a scalable ecosystem for multi-chain applications with institutional-grade security.
