Chainlink has acquired Atlas from FastLane to expand its oracle-based MEV recapture protocol SVR, now live on five chains.
Chainlink has acquired Atlas, the onchain order flow infrastructure developed by FastLane, as part of its effort to expand its oracle-based Maximal Extractable Value (MEV) recapture protocol, Chainlink SVR.
The deal includes Atlas intellectual property and core personnel. Existing Atlas users will migrate to SVR, including those on the deprecated RedStone deployment.
The integration brings Atlas’s production-tested liquidation auction technology into Chainlink SVR. DeFi protocols including Compound and Venus already use Atlas.
The SVR protocol targets Oracle Extractable Value (OEV), enabling lending protocols to reclaim MEV from liquidations using Chainlink Price Feeds. The system is now live on Arbitrum, Base, BNB Chain, Ethereum, and HyperEVM, with more blockchains to follow.
SVR has recaptured over $10 million in OEV across $460 million in liquidations, benefiting protocols like Aave and Compound while sharing revenues with the Chainlink Network.
FastLane cited Chainlink’s scale and security as reasons for handing over stewardship of Atlas, which Chainlink will continue to develop and deploy across supported chains.
Johann Eid, Chief Business Officer at Chainlink Labs, said the move would create “the most effective value recapture system DeFi has ever had.”
FastLane CEO Alex Watts added that the integration gives DeFi protocols “the most credible path to recapture value onchain at scale.”
Atlas will continue to operate independently under FastLane but now serves as a strategic partner to Chainlink, accelerating SVR onboarding across protocols and ecosystems.
