Finally, Chainlink has also been in the news due to different reasons. For example, the virtual currency is now working with SWIFT on its API based payment system. 

Currently, LINK is being traded around $2.27 and it could eventually reach the 14th position in the market. 

At the moment, Ripple and Stellar are working in order to offer banks and financial institutions with better services than SWIFT.
