- Chainlink has activated its functions and VRF functions on Soneium, giving developers access to data from practice and verifiable arbitrariness for building complex Dapps.
- In addition, earlier collaborations include Ripple and BX Swiss who take on his technology for data provision and transparency of the chain price.
Chainlink has officially announced that his two new functions, functions and verifiable random function (VRF) are now live on the Soneium network. These functions enable Web3 applications to integrate Real-World data and verified arbitrariness in their smart contracts seamlessly.
Functions and VRF are officially live on @soneium, a next generation of blockchain from @sony Block Solutions Labs and member of Chainlink Scale.
Building on the previous launch of CCIP, data flows and data feeds on Soneium, DEVS now have the toolkit needed to build the next generation of Dapps. https://t.co/IHG9JLC9CD

VRF is a solution for verifiable arbitrariness, and this is particularly crucial for blockchain games, lotteries or NFT drops that must be fair. Imagine that you participate in a digital lottery and want to know that the results are really random, not the result of checking the application owner. Well, VRF guarantees that.
On the other hand, functions offer the possibility for smart contracts to connect to external APIs, so that broader data integration options are opened.
Chainlink is expanding the range, Soneium gets strength
This integration makes Soneium even more confidence in competing with other blockchain networks. Chain link Seems to be quite committed to this partnership.
Earlier they had added data flows, data feeds and cross -chain interoperability protocol (CCIP) functions to Soneium. Developers on the network can now make more complicated apps such as Defi, Games and NFT marketplaces by adding VRF and functions.
However, it is not only Soneium that benefits. Chainlink itself increasingly expands the reach of his technology to various blockchain ecosystems. This step seems to indicate that they really want to become the most important “data bridge” in the web3 room.
Chainlink brings RLUSD and Swiss shares on-chain
On the other hand, on January 7, 2025, Ripple announced that they had used the Chainlink standard to deliver Rlusd stablecoin Price information directly to the blockchain. That is why it is not just about regular stablecoins, but also about how the price can remain reliable and open. A kind of digital price tag unchangeable.
Then, on January 24, 2025, it was BX Digital and BX Swiss’s turn to collaborate with Chainlink to bring Swiss share price data to the Blockchain -Rijk. In this way, stock price information is no longer only in the traditional financial system, but it is directly accessible through smart contracts.
Crypto Payments simplify for everyone
Moreover, CNF has reported That Chainlink has launched the payment abstraction function on its Maintnet. In essence, users can pay for Chainlink services, not only with link -tokens, but also with the help of other crypto assets such as stablecoins or gas tokens.
The system will automatically convert the payment to link behind the scenes. For developers and companies, this clearly reduces the hassle of the manual conversion.
If we were to use an analogy, this function as you shop online and can pay with everything – from digital portfolios, payment cards to reward points – but the store still accepts the only type of money they want.
From the time of the press, Link has exchanged its hands to approximately $ 13.23down 2.77% in the last 24 hours and corrected 15.42% In the past 7 days.
