Chainlink's community grant program provides financial support to developers and researchers to enhance the functionality and usability of the Chainlink network. Vulcan Link, a European Chainlink node operator and Web3 development and consulting firm, has been awarded a grant to integrate Chainlink's oracle into the SKALE network, which is a flexible blockchain platform compatible with Ethereum. This integration will allow SKALE developers to access off-chain data and API services, facilitating the creation of advanced smart contract applications. Vulcan Link will use the grant to verify and debug Chainlink smart contracts for compatibility with SKALE, test and deploy all Chainlink components to the SKALE mainnet, and create documentation for rapid integration. The CEO of Vulcan Link, Leo Vigna, expressed excitement about the grant, emphasizing the potential for new smart contract applications on SKALE and the expansion of the Chainlink ecosystem. The Chainlink community grant program aims to empower more teams and researchers in the ecosystem to develop critical tools and infrastructure, fostering the growth of universally connected smart contracts and secure oracle infrastructure. More information about the grant program, including objectives and application criteria, can be found in their recent blog post.
