Horizon Protocol Has Integrated Chainlink Keepers To Automate the Distribution of Staking Rewards
We’re excited to announce that Horizon Protocol — a DeFi protocol for the issuance and trading of borderless synthetic assets — has successfully integrated Chainlink Keepers on BNB Chain mainnet. As mentioned in our previous announcement, this Chainlink Keepers integration allows Horizon Protocol to securely and cost-efficiently automate the distribution of Horizon Exchange fees and staking rewards to HZN stakers in a timely manner.
This marks another step forward in achieving the complete decentralization of Horizon Protocol. Decentralizing weekly reward distribution through Chainlink Keepers is one of many opportunities to further decentralize Horizon Protocol. As stated in the development roadmap, Horizon Protocol aims to leverage Chainlink Keepers to not only help provide our users with the increased security and robustness native to a truly decentralized ecosystem, but to also introduce further improvements that enhance the user experience.
