We’re excited to announce that Chainlink Payment Abstraction—a novel cross-chain-enabled payment system that significantly reduces payment friction within the Chainlink Network—is officially live on mainnet. Payment Abstraction enables users to pay for Chainlink Services in alternative assets (e.g., gas tokens and stablecoins), which are then automatically converted into LINK using a combination of Chainlink Automation, Price Feeds, CCIP, and a decentralized exchange (DEX).
