Chainlinkintroduced a new pricing method called Chainlink State Pricing to address a growing challenge in DeFi: how to reliably price assets that mainly trade on decentralized exchanges (DEXs) and have low activity on centralized exchanges (CEXs).

Chainlink State Pricing calculates the value of tokens using liquidity data from onchain DEX pools, not just recent trade activity. This makes it especially useful for assets like liquid staking tokens (LSTs), liquid restaking tokens (LRTs), and tokenized real-world assets (RWAs) that often lack trading volume but…
