On October 14, 2026, Chainlink launched its Data Feeds and Data Streams on Stellar mainnet, providing developers with a native source of market data for decentralized finance applications. The Stellar Development Foundation (SDF) is subsidizing oracle operations through the Scale program, reducing costs for developers building on the network. Stellar hosts over $4 billion in tokenized real-world assets (RWAs), a market that previously lacked native on-chain pricing infrastructure. Despite the integration, XLM posted a 7.85% weekly loss and was trading around $0.19 by mid-October 2026. The launch targets lending, trading, derivatives, collateral valuation and automated liquidations, positioning Stellar as a more competitive platform for serious DeFi activity.
