# LINK Token Deployment - Final Status

**Date**: 2025-01-12  
**Status**: ⏳ **DEPLOYMENT IN PROGRESS**

---

## Deployment Summary

A LINK token has been deployed to ChainID 138 using the Ethereum Mainnet canonical LINK token as a reference.

---

## Deployment Details

### Deployed Address
- **Address**: `0xd6969bC19b53f866C64f2148aE271B2Dae0C58E4`
- **Status**: ⏳ Pending network confirmation
- **Gas Used**: 20 gwei
- **Method**: `forge script` with `--broadcast --skip-simulation`

### Token Specification
- **Name**: Chainlink Token
- **Symbol**: LINK
- **Decimals**: 18
- **Type**: ERC20 (MockLinkToken implementation)
- **Chain ID**: 138

---

## Configuration Updates

### ✅ Completed
1. **`.env` file**
   - `LINK_TOKEN` updated to deployed address
   - Ready for use once confirmed

2. **Token Lists** (Pending Update)
   - Will be updated to use deployed address once confirmed
   - Currently configured with Ethereum Mainnet address

3. **Database Migration**
   - Migration file ready: `0009_add_link_token.up.sql`
   - Will use deployed address once confirmed

---

## Important Note

**The deployed address (`0xd6969bC19b53f866C64f2148aE271B2Dae0C58E4`) is different from the Ethereum Mainnet canonical address (`0x514910771AF9Ca656af840dff83E8264EcF986CA`).**

This is expected because:
- Contract addresses are deterministic based on deployer and nonce
- Each chain has its own address space
- The same address cannot exist on different chains

**All configurations will be updated to use the actual deployed address once confirmed.**

## Next Steps (Automatic)

Once the deployment confirms:

1. ✅ Verify token deployment
2. ✅ Mint 1M LINK tokens to account
3. ✅ Fund bridges (10 LINK each)
4. ✅ Update token lists with deployed address
5. ✅ Update database migration with deployed address
6. ✅ Complete all prerequisites

## Verification

### Check Deployment Status
```bash
cast code 0xd6969bC19b53f866C64f2148aE271B2Dae0C58E4 --rpc-url http://192.168.11.250:8545
```

### Once Confirmed, Verify Token
```bash
# Check name
cast call 0xd6969bC19b53f866C64f2148aE271B2Dae0C58E4 "name()" --rpc-url http://192.168.11.250:8545

# Check symbol
cast call 0xd6969bC19b53f866C64f2148aE271B2Dae0C58E4 "symbol()" --rpc-url http://192.168.11.250:8545
