Some of the experts and market analysts are hoping that both platform s will play a complementary role in the market, which will be more beneficial to users and the entire crypto community. Chainlink’s development team released a statement, showing the platform’s readiness to move o the next level.
“We remain committed to the continued growth of the Ethereum ecosystem”, the team said, adding that it’s the reason for the support of the Gitcoin Grants 8 project.
It’s the goal of the development team to participate in the funding of community-selected projects that focus on the improvement of Ethereum infrastructure, Chainlink’s development team reiterated.
Additionally, Chainlink said its support for Gitcoin is another proof that it wants the collaboration of both platforms to ensure improved growth of both company’s infrastructure, which will become beneficial to the community.
