# Chainlink

## Decentralized Price Oracle

**Chainlink** supplies real-time, decentralized price feeds to the Ibran Finance protocol. In any lending and borrowing platform, accurate asset pricing is essential to determine collateral value, borrowing capacity, and liquidation thresholds. An unreliable oracle could create risks for the protocol and its users.

Chainlink delivers price data through its decentralized oracle network, where independent node operators aggregate data from multiple high-quality sources. This design ensures transparency, minimizes trust assumptions, and provides strong protection against manipulation. By integrating Chainlink, Ibran Finance securely accesses on-chain pricing information at the exact moment it is needed, keeping the platform efficient, reliable, and tamper-resistant.
