Today's Chainlink News centers on a state government going further than federal law requires. The Wyoming Stable Token Commission confirmed it has adopted Chainlink Proof of Reserve for its Frontier Stable Token, FRNT, making it the first stablecoin issued by a US public entity to publish independently verified reserve data onchain.

The GENIUS Act sets the federal baseline for stablecoin transparency, requiring monthly disclosure of reserve composition and outstanding token supply, backed by independent examination. Wyoming was already ahead of that bar, publishing daily collateral attestations for the token. Today's integration pushes further:
The Network Firm continues to examine FRNT's reserve and token-supply balances under AICPA standards
Chainlink Proof of Reserve now delivers that verified data onchain in near real time
The gap between a periodic report and what's actually visible onchain narrows significantly
Per Chainlink's official account, this arrangement means FRNT "exceeds GENIUS Act requirements," moving from monthly or daily snapshots toward continuous, verifiable visibility into what's actually backing the token.
Johann Eid, Chief Business Officer at Chainlink Labs, framed the move as a template for other governments: "We're excited to see the Wyoming Stable Token Commission exceed federal requirements and set a new U.S. standard for onchain backing assets transparency by adopting Chainlink Proof of Reserve."
This Chainlink News update also points to what's coming next. The Wyoming Stable Token Commission is separately working to adopt Chainlink's Secure Mint feature, which would add a hard requirement before any new FRNT can be created:
Feature
Status
What It Does
Chainlink Proof of Reserve
Adopted
Publishes verified funds and supply data onchain in near real time
Chainlink Secure Mint
In progress, not yet adopted
Would require verified reserves to equal or exceed total FRNT supply before new tokens mint
Secure Mint isn't live yet, but its purpose is straightforward: it would prevent new FRNT from being issued unless the reserves backing it are already confirmed sufficient, closing a gap that periodic reporting alone can't fully address.
Today's integration builds directly on FRNT's earlier move to Chainlink's Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol, which this outlet's recent Chainlink News coverage already tracked. Per Chainlink's own statement, this Proof of Reserve rollout "deepens the Wyoming Stable Token Commission's adoption of the oracle network and builds upon FRNT's migration to CCIP, which unlocks secure-by-default cross-chain interoperability for FRNT."
FRNT itself launched in January, backed by US dollars and short-term US Treasurys, with interest income from its reserves directed to Wyoming's School Foundation Program.

LINK's price move today doesn't appear directly tied to the Wyoming announcement, continuing a pattern seen in recent cycles where institutional adoption headlines and short-term price action haven't consistently moved together.
Today's Chainlink News shows a US state government pushing stablecoin transparency past what federal law currently requires, pairing independent audits with near-real-time onchain verification. Secure Mint remains the next step still in progress, not yet live, while FRNT's underlying infrastructure keeps building on its earlier CCIP migration. LINK's own price, meanwhile, is moving on its own terms today.
