Chainlink has launched CCIP 2.0, allowing banks and institutions to run their own independent cross-chain verification systems or use third-party checks before transferring assets across networks, enhancing security control after the $292 million Kelp DAO hack.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Crypto & Web3 and Banking Infrastructure, and 2 sources have reported it between 28 Sep 2026 and 30 Sep 2026.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

You can now add your own security checks to cross-chain asset transfers instead of relying on a single system. This opens new control over tokenised finance and reduces risks from past hacks like Kelp.
