This means developers on Solana can now access ultra-fast data that updates in less than a second.
Imagine checking the weather every second to see if you need an umbrella. Chainlink’s Data Streams provide that kind of constant update but for Solana’s DeFi market.
What’s the Big Deal About Data Streams?
Data is the backbone of all things digital. It’s how we know what’s happening in the stock market, on social media, and even in crypto. When it comes to DeFi, or “decentralized finance,” quick data updates are essential. Chainlink’s new Data Streams can provide up-to-the-second market prices and information.
This quick timing is called “low latency”. It means there’s barely any delay in getting the data. For developers and investors, this fast data means they can make decisions on the fly. This will help them stay ahead of the game.

Chainlink isn’t doing this alone. It has partnered with GMX , a popular DeFi platform, to launch Data Streams. GMX is already known for its advanced trading tools, so teaming up with Chainlink will make it even stronger. With this partnership, GMX can now give its users super-fast updates on crypto prices, making it easier for them to trade with the latest info.
How Does This Help Solana?
Solana is already famous for being a fast blockchain, but now it’s taking things to the next level. With Chainlink Data Streams , Solana developers can tap into high-frequency data directly from Chainlink’s decentralized network. Because this data is “pull-based,” developers can grab it only when needed, saving on resources and making everything run smoothly.
GMX-Solana is the expansion of @GMX_IO , which has a total trading volume of 231B, distributed fees of 337M, and 665,000 total users, on @solana . With the support of @chainlink , we will bring an entirely new narrative. Stay tuned! #GMX #Solana #Chainlink https://t.co/l7F9LVI9hq
