Chainlink LINK $12.23 24h volatility: 2.3% Market cap: $8.67 B Vol. 24h: $436.13 M acquired Atlas intellectual property and key personnel from FastLane, bringing order-processing technology under its control and expanding its Smart Value Recapture (SVR) system to Arbitrum ARB $0.18 24h volatility: 1.0% Market cap: $1.04 B Vol. 24h: $107.06 M , Base, BNB Chain BNB $883.8 24h volatility: 2.0% Market cap: $120.49 B Vol. 24h: $1.49 B , Ethereum ETH $2 938 24h volatility: 2.1% Market cap: $354.63 B Vol. 24h: $28.57 B , and Hyperliquid’s HyperEVM.

Atlas now exclusively supports Chainlink SVR, according to the joint announcement.

SVR helps decentralized finance (DeFi) lending platforms recover profits that would otherwise go to third parties when borrowers’ crypto-backed loans are liquidated.

The system has processed more than $460 million in liquidations and recovered over $10 million for integrated protocols, according to Chainlink.

The recovered value is split between DeFi protocols and the Chainlink Network.

How the Technology Works

When borrowers fail to maintain sufficient collateral, their loans are automatically sold off. Chainlink SVR captures profit opportunities that arise during these liquidations and returns a portion to the lending protocol instead of letting outside traders take it.

Maximal extractable value represents the profits third parties can extract by reordering blockchain transactions.

Johann Eid, Chief Business Officer at Chainlink Labs, said the acquisition creates an effective value recovery system that increases revenue for DeFi through expansion to new blockchain networks.

FastLane will continue to operate independently as a strategic partner.

Protocol Adoption

Major DeFi lending platforms including Aave AAVE $157.1 24h volatility: 2.9% Market cap: $2.39 B Vol. 24h: $361.28 M , which helps facilitate billions in crypto-backed loans, and Compound COMP $24.07 24h volatility: 1.0% Market cap: $232.96 M Vol. 24h: $13.22 M have adopted SVR.

Chainlink secures approximately 70% of the DeFi ecosystem by value and has enabled over $27 trillion in transaction value, according to DefiLlama data and company metrics.

The acquisition accelerates SVR deployment across networks where lending protocols operate.

Alex Watts, CEO of FastLane, said Chainlink is positioned to lead the oracle value recovery market, where it competes with API3 and Pyth Network.

Meanwhile, LINK has seen steady whale accumulation despite a recent pullback, with analysts pointing to a long-term support zone and projecting higher upside as market conditions stabilize.

Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For

The post Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Topline The Federal Reserve on Wednesday will conclude a two-day policymaking meeting and release a decision on whether to lower interest rates—following months of pressure and criticism from President Donald Trump—and potentially signal whether additional cuts are on the way. President Donald Trump has urged the central bank to “CUT INTEREST RATES, NOW, AND BIGGER” than they might plan to. Getty Images Key Facts The central bank is poised to cut interest rates by at least a quarter-point, down from the 4.25% to 4.5% range where they have been held since December to between 4% and 4.25%, as Wall Street has placed 100% odds of a rate cut, according to CME’s FedWatch, with higher odds (94%) on a quarter-point cut than a half-point (6%) reduction. Fed governors Christopher Waller and Michelle Bowman, both Trump appointees, voted in July for a quarter-point reduction to rates, and they may dissent again in favor of a large cut alongside Stephen Miran, Trump’s Council of Economic Advisers’ chair, who was sworn in at the meeting’s start on Tuesday. It’s unclear whether other policymakers, including Kansas City Fed President Jeffrey Schmid and St. Louis Fed President Alberto Musalem, will favor larger cuts or opt for no reduction. Fed Chair Jerome Powell said in his Jackson Hole, Wyoming, address last month the central bank would likely consider a looser monetary policy, noting the “shifting balance of risks” on the U.S. economy “may warrant adjusting our policy stance.” David Mericle, an economist for Goldman Sachs, wrote in a note the “key question” for the Fed’s meeting is whether policymakers signal “this is likely the first in a series of consecutive cuts” as the central bank is anticipated to “acknowledge the softening in the labor market,” though they may not “nod to an October cut.” Mericle said he…
