What to know:

  • Coinbase has tapped Chainlink's Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP) for its wrapped assets, worth around $7 billion.
  • CCIP will enable users to move assets across different networks and applications, leveraging Chainlink's secure oracle networks.
  • The deal aims to improve cross-chain security and reduce risk, using CCIP's decentralized node-based design.

Coinbase has picked Chainlink’s Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP) as the exclusive bridge for all Coinbase Wrapped Assets, linking them to the same Chainlink oracle networks that feed price and other data to decentralized finance (DeFi) protocols, the firms announced on Thursday.

The deal covers tokens such as cbBTC, cbETH, cbDOGE, cbLTC, cbADA and cbXRP, which together hold about $7 billion in market value at the time of writing. These wrapped versions represent assets held by Coinbase and let users move exposure into other networks and applications that do not natively support those coins.

Through these wrapped assets users can, for example, leverage bitcoin BTC$89,861.93 in the form of cbBTC within the decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem of various networks, including Base and Solana.

Cross-chain bridges have been one of crypto’s main failure points, with several high-profile exploits in recent years. CCIP routes messages and value between chains through a decentralized set of nodes rather than a single multisig or bespoke bridge for each pair of networks, a design that aims to cut operator risk.

“We chose Chainlink because they are an industry leader for cross-chain connectivity,” said Josh Leavitt, senior director of product management at Coinbase. William Reilly, head of strategic initiatives at Chainlink, said the tie-up is meant to “accelerate the growth of Coinbase’s wrapped assets.”

The announcement comes soon after a new bridge connecting Base, Ethereum layer-2 network built by Coinbase, and the Solana blockchain went live on mainnet. That bridge is also secured by Chainlink’s CCIP.

UK Looks to US to Adopt More Crypto-Friendly Approach

The post UK Looks to US to Adopt More Crypto-Friendly Approach appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The UK and US are reportedly preparing to deepen cooperation on digital assets, with Britain looking to copy the Trump administration’s crypto-friendly stance in a bid to boost innovation.  UK Chancellor Rachel Reeves and US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent discussed on Tuesday how the two nations could strengthen their coordination on crypto, the Financial Times reported on Tuesday, citing people familiar with the matter.  The discussions also involved representatives from crypto companies, including Coinbase, Circle Internet Group and Ripple, with executives from the Bank of America, Barclays and Citi also attending, according to the report. The agreement was made “last-minute” after crypto advocacy groups urged the UK government on Thursday to adopt a more open stance toward the industry, claiming its cautious approach to the sector has left the country lagging in innovation and policy.  Source: Rachel Reeves Deal to include stablecoins, look to unlock adoption Any deal between the countries is likely to include stablecoins, the Financial Times reported, an area of crypto that US President Donald Trump made a policy priority and in which his family has significant business interests. The Financial Times reported on Monday that UK crypto advocacy groups also slammed the Bank of England’s proposal to limit individual stablecoin holdings to between 10,000 British pounds ($13,650) and 20,000 pounds ($27,300), claiming it would be difficult and expensive to implement. UK banks appear to have slowed adoption too, with around 40% of 2,000 recently surveyed crypto investors saying that their banks had either blocked or delayed a payment to a crypto provider.  Many of these actions have been linked to concerns over volatility, fraud and scams. The UK has made some progress on crypto regulation recently, proposing a framework in May that would see crypto exchanges, dealers, and agents treated similarly to traditional finance firms, with…
