He also was the former executive chairman of the parent company of the search engine giant, Alphabet.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Apart from Schmidt's years at Google, he had also chaired the Department of Defense's Innovation Board and the National Security's Commission on Artificial Intelligence. Similarly, he also had his footprint on the boards of Apple,\u00a0 Carnegie Mellon University, Princeton University, and the Mayo Clinic.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Schmidt is a long-time fan of blockchain technology. He once called Bitcoin a \u201cremarkable cryptographic achievement.\u201d Per available information, he would be one of the richest persons working in the crypto industry as his network is around $24 billion.<\/p>\n<h2>ChainLink\u2019s oracle in DeFi<\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">ChainLink's Oracle is a popular technology in Decentralized Finance (DeFi), as it provides needed information about an asset's price. Its functions can also be widened to give information on sporting activities, weather data, and a lot more.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Earlier this year, it introduced Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol, which has the capacity\u00a0&#8220;to enable users to move digital assets and execute smart contracts across the various chains used throughout the metaverse.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Notably, Chainlink also signed a partnership with Associated Press in its bid to <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/cryptopunks-as-collateral-how-chainlink-and-jpegd-are-doing-just-that\/\">expand the reach of DeFi into new areas<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Popular crypto startup, Chainlink, in a recent announcement has revealed that Eric Schmidt, the famous former CEO of Google and its parent company, Alphabet, will be joining the firm as its new strategic advisor.
