To start the collaboration, Scroll is joining the Chainlink SCALE program to support its vision of scaling Ethereum in an open and community-driven manner
Scroll, a fully open-source, Ethereum equivalent zkEVM-based zkRollup that enables native compatibility for existing Ethereum applications and tools is partnering with Chainlink Labs to deliver Chainlink Web3 services to Scroll’s developers. Scroll has joined the Chainlink SCALE (Sustainable Chainlink Access for Layer 1 and 2 Enablement) program to help boost the adoption of its native zkEVM scaling solution for Ethereum.
This initiative is aimed at accelerating ecosystem growth and the long-term adoption of Scroll by equipping its developers with low-cost, reliable Chainlink Web3 services. As part of this program, Scroll will cover certain operating costs of Chainlink oracle nodes that supply the network with a variety of Data Feeds and other oracle services.

“Scroll joining the Chainlink SCALE program is a great driver to help propel the adoption of the zkEVM layer-2 network. By aligning the Chainlink and Scroll ecosystems, this collaboration supports developer innovation and fosters the creation of applications that underpin the long-term growth of the Scroll ecosystem,” said Johann Eid, Chief Business Officer at Chainlink Labs.
This deployment of resources will help Scroll realize its vision of scaling Ethereum in an open and community-driven manner while giving its ecosystem developers access to a wide range of reliable and low-cost oracle services for an extended period of time. This will set a foundation for Scroll to support secure, fully featured, and highly scalable dApps.

“We are excited to work with Chainlink Labs to bring best-in-class oracle services to leading DeFi applications building on Scroll. With its focus on Ethereum scalability and security, Scroll is the default destination for DeFi applications that need Chainlink oracles to function,” said Haichen Shen, Head of Engineering and Co-Founder at Scroll.
Chainlink SCALE is an initiative centered around sustainably accelerating the growth of oracle infrastructure in parallel with blockchain and layer-2 ecosystems. Its focus is providing L1s/L2s with increased access to high-quality, low-cost, and in-demand oracle services. Scroll’s participation in SCALE will maximize its ecosystem’s success by increasing its developers’ access to industry-leading oracle data and oracle services and further minimizing the gas costs that Chainlink nodes incur when submitting oracle reports on Scroll.
