Chainlink is a blockchain platform that connects outside real-world data with smart contracts, essentially bridging a gap between these two worlds. The decentralized network allows blockchain-based products to connect with data providers outside of the industry and plug in external data sources. LINK is commonly available on crypto exchanges, and can be purchased directly through the Tap app.

Due to the changing prices in the cryptocurrency exchange market, you will need to check on the Tap app what the price is at any given moment. If you open the app and select Chainlink from the list of options available, the Chainlink price will instantly be displayed.

You can view the Chainlink price in real-time and purchase LINK instantly through the Tap app (a regulated cryptocurrency exchange). Once the funds are paid the transaction is executed and the LINK coins are deposited into your Tap digital wallet. Due to the nature of blockchain technology, there might be slight delays because of congestion on the decentralized network. On Tap, and most other cryptocurrency exchanges, users can purchase Chainlink using a fiat currency. Accepting USD, GBP and EUR, users can buy Bitcoin, Chainlink and a number of popular cryptocurrencies using a bank account or debit card. These are then automatically stored in the cryptocurrency wallet provided. Opening retail investor accounts on Tap is a walk in the park, simply download the app, create an account and pass the identity verification process. You can then securely connect to a wide range of blockchain networks and trade cryptocurrencies.

While Bitcoin is a peer-to-peer payment system designed to provide faster and cheaper means of sending money across the globe, Chainlink is another blockchain platform entirely. Chainlink is focused on blockchain development, specifically smart contract functionality, rather than as a transactional currency. While you can still transact LINK tokens in the same way as BTC, its use case within and outside of the crypto markets is much greater than that.

To buy Chainlink (or any other digital asset) on Tap you will need to create an account and complete the KYC (Know Your Customer) process, a common and essential element for buying cryptocurrencies. For this, you will need your ID, driver's license, or passport. You can then check the Chainlink price and make a purchase.

If you're looking to add LINK to your cryptocurrency portfolio, we encourage you to do your own research, seek out any investment advice, and ensure that your values are aligned with that of the business and chosen platform. Should this feel like a good fit, you can purchase LINK tokens directly through the Tap app by depositing funds and then making the trade. The same goes for all the other cryptocurrencies available on the Tap app.

The Chainlink network allows blockchain-based smart contracts to interact with information available outside of the blockchain world. The platform offers a way for smart contracts to automatically execute using external data collected from a range of sources. For example, a smart contract could be created to automatically execute once certain price data is captured. Say, once the price of Bitcoin reaches a certain amount the smart contract can automatically sell.

You can always access the Chainlink price in your Tap app. Simply select Chainlink from the options available in the Crypto wallet and get immediate access to the price in real-time.
