- Chainlink enables now direct transfers between Solana and Base through a new, secure bridge.
- More Base and Solana apps will adopt the bridge and increase the number of tokens and applications supported.
Since yesterday there is a secure bridge between Base and Solana, which makes it possible to move assets between the two blockchains. Loud announcement From Chainlink, the bridge is secured by the Cross Chain Interoperability Protocol CCIP and co-validated by Coinbase’s infrastructure, creating double verification.
With the bridge now live on mainnet, developers and users have direct connectivity between Solana and Base. The connection leverages a custom crosschain oracle tailored to bridging Solana’s non-EVM architecture and Base’s EVM-based L2 environment.
Every crosschain message, such as a token transfer, must be independently verified by two parties: Chainlink CCIP node operators and Coinbase operators. This improves fault tolerance and increases reliability.
Im Blogpost Base explains that the bridge supports two-way transfers: users can move assets from Solana to Base and vice versa. Customers can now trade native Solana assets such as SOL and other Solana-based SPL tokens within Base applications. Developers on Base can natively integrate Solana assets into their applications, expanding asset selection and potentially attracting liquidity from Solana.
Base users can also export Base assets to Solana, allowing liquidity flows across the chain in both directions. The first applications such as Zora, Aerodrome, Virtuals, Flaunch and Relay are already among those that integrate the bridge.
Solana and Chainlink
In early 2025, Solana became the first non-EVM chain to integrate the Chainlink CCIP. This move had already provided access to $19 billion in collective assets via the Cross Chain Token Standard CCT.
Solana has been using Chainlink’s tools for a while now. The Chainlink price feeds have been live on the network since 2022, and the data streams followed at the end of 2024. Today, GMX-Solana and Kamino Finance have both integrated Chainlink Data Streams into their platforms.
LINK is currently listed at 14,24 $, after a slight increase of 6 % over the past week, with the next resistance at 15,33 $ is expected. The optimism has only increased with Grayscale’s Chainlink Trust exchange traded fund (ETF), ticker GLNK, launching on the NYSE Arca on Tuesday.
Meanwhile, Vanguard received approval to allow its customers to trade Solana ETFs on its platform shortly after Fidelity and Canary launched their own Solana funds, FSOL and SOLC. SOL is currently listed at 148 $which represents a decrease of approximately 3 % in the last few days.
