In Economics 2.0, LINK transitions from a speculative token to a productive asset within the network.
Staked LINK backs oracle services via Chainlink Staking v0.2+, securing data feeds and cross-chain operations.
Node operators earn rewards + service fees, while stakers provide crypto-economic guarantees against malicious reporting.
The long-term model ties staking yield to network revenue, meaning LINK’s value scales with oracle adoption — similar to ETH gas dynamics in Ethereum’s economy.
