To support your development and implementation needs, we encourage you to reach out to our team of experts for guidance and support. For expert advice, visit the Chainlink CCIP Contact form.

Additionally, the Chainlink CCIP local simulator is available to enhance your development workflow with CCIP. This tool allows you to simulate Chainlink CCIP functionality locally within your Hardhat and Foundry projects. The simulator is designed so you can test your contracts locally and transition smoothly to test networks without any modifications.

2024-04-11 - WETH and support of Lock and Unlock mechanism

Chainlink's CCIP now supports WETH (Wrapped Ether) transfers through the Lock and Unlock token mechanism.

This feature allows CCIP to securely lock tokens on the source blockchain and subsequently release an equivalent amount of tokens on the destination blockchain, facilitating seamless cross-chain transfers of WETH. The introduction of this mechanism enables WETH transfers across several key lanes.

For a specific lane configuration, see the Supported Networks page. For more detailed information about the Lock and Unlock mechanism and its applications, read the Token Pools page.

2024-04-11 - CCIP gas limit increase on Mainnet

The maximum gasLimit that you can set for CCIP messages on mainnet has been increased to 3,000,000 gas units. The change has been documented in the Service Limits page.

Please refer to the release notes for a comprehensive overview of the enhancements and new features in v1.2.0.

  • There is no change to the router interface, but you must use the new router addresses listed in the CCIP v1.2.0 configuration page.
  • USDC transfers are currently supported on several lanes. See the the Supported Networks page to get a specific lane's token addresses and rate limits.
  • The message sequencing process is simplified in CCIP message handling by removing the strict sequencing flag from the extraArgs field in CCIP messages.
  • The gas limit and maximum message data length for CCIP messages have been adjusted on mainnets. These changes are detailed in the Service Limits documentation.
