**[Chainlink Releases CCIP 2.0, Allowing Major Crypto Applications to Customize Cross-Chain Security Verification]** Odaily Planet Daily News: Cross-chain protocol Chainlink has released CCIP 2.0, enabling enterprises to add their own security checks for cross-blockchain transfers on top of its default network of 16 operator validators. This upgrade follows the $292 million hack of Kelp DAO in April, an incident attributed to the use of a single-validator setup in the LayerZero cross-chain bridge. Subsequently, Kelp DAO migrated its rsETH tokens to Chainlink. Chainlink's risk management network will no longer operate as an independent security guarantee; users who do not add their own validators will rely on a single validation network rather than two validation networks.
