quote: Sergey Nazarov says the one thing guiding him as a founder is the advancement of smart contracts: "My definition of a smart contract is not just code that runs on a chain." "It's code that can automate, in a cryptographically verified way, key operations." "We were working on smart contracts before Ethereum, before a lot of things that exist now." "The DTCC app chain is a moderately advanced smart contract." "It's going to get even more advanced, and Chainlink will provide more and more of what it needs." @SergeyNazarov @chainlink | EXCLUSIVE: Sergey Nazarov On The Tokenization Supercycle (And Whats Coming Next) I hosted the first sit down interview with Chainlink’s Co-founder Sergey Nazarov at Sibos 2026. @SergeyNazarov @chainlink @therollupco 00:00 Intro 01:55 Chainlink's Best Sibos Booth Ever 03:49 Chainlink and Swift Ledger 05:43 More Chains Means More Chainlink Value 07:44 DTCC Deeply Integrates Chainlink Data Feeds 09:56 Chainlink Solves The Digital Twin Problem 14:25 Tokenization Is Not About Tokens Themselves 17:44 Laws Will Change Then All Settlement Goes Onchain 19:38 Fragmentation Is Actually Chainlink's Tailwind 21:39 Chainlink Solves Each Problem As It Appears 23:34 Smart Contracts Defined By Sergey Nazarov
