Chainlink is a decentralized network of oracles that enables smart contracts to securely interact with real-world data and services that exist outside of blockchain networks.1
Chainlink 2.0 creates a framework for multiple interoperating Decentralized Oracle Networks (DONs), which each consist of a collection of nodes that can transfer data bidirectionally and perform decentralized off-chain computation using various consensus protocols.2
