AB Blockchain
Announcements
AB represents a groundbreaking evolution in blockchain technology, building upon the foundation established by the Newton Project, which launched in 2018. The Newton Project’s vision was to create infrastructure for the Community Economy, empowering individuals with the principle that "everyone should benefit directly from economic growth." Over the years, this vision has been partially realized through the development of decentralized infrastructure supporting community-driven economies. With the first phase of this journey now complete, the project embarks on a new chapter of innovation and expansion.
In 2025, the Newton Project rebranded as AB, signaling a strategic shift toward a more advanced blockchain ecosystem. AB focuses on heterogeneous blockchain infrastructure, real-world asset integration, and optimized tokenomics. At its core lies the AB token, the native cryptocurrency of the AB blockchain, which serves as the Gas token for powering transactions, executing smart contracts, and enabling governance mechanisms. This ensures the network's scalability, reliability, and sustainability.
About Chainlink
Chainlink is the industry-standard oracle platform bringing the capital markets onchain and powering the majority of decentralized finance (DeFi). The Chainlink stack provides the essential data, interoperability, compliance, and privacy standards needed to power advanced blockchain use cases for institutional tokenized assets, lending, payments, stablecoins, and more. Since inventing decentralized oracle networks, Chainlink has enabled tens of trillions in transaction value and now secures the vast majority of DeFi.
Many of the world's largest financial services institutions have also adopted Chainlink's standards and infrastructure, including Swift, Euroclear, Mastercard, Fidelity International, UBS, ANZ, and top protocols such as Aave, GMX, Lido, and many others. Chainlink leverages a novel fee model where offchain and onchain revenue from enterprise adoption is converted to LINK tokens and stored in a strategic Chainlink Reserve.
