Chainlink expands infrastructure to Circle’s Arc mainnet and MOVA Chain
Chainlink has expanded its infrastructure to two new networks: Circle’s Arc mainnet and the DeFi-focused MOVA Chain. Arc is a permissioned layer-1 blockchain designed for institutional use, featuring a validator network that includes BlackRock, Visa, Mastercard, DTCC, and ICE. On the Arc mainnet, Chainlink has deployed data feeds, data streams, and its Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP). Notably, gas fees on the Arc network are paid in USDC to avoid the volatility of native tokens.
Additionally, MOVA Chain has implemented CCIP to facilitate secure cross-chain messaging, connecting the network to over 50 other chains.
On the market side, Chainlink (LINK) is currently testing key support levels following a recent price correction. Analysts are monitoring the $10.00–$10.10 range as a critical support zone. Renewed wallet accumulation and the expansion of the network's infrastructure footprint are being cited as potential catalysts for future price stability and recovery.
