LINK Token Decision for Phase 3 Deployment

Last Updated: 2026-01-31
Document Version: 1.0
Status: Active Documentation


Date: 2026-01-18
Status: DECISION: USE EXISTING LINK TOKEN


Use Existing LINK Token: 0xb7721dD53A8c629d9f1Ba31a5819AFe250002b03

Why This Makes Sense

  1. Already Deployed: Contract exists and verified (3,779 bytes)
  2. Sufficient Supply: ~999,980 LINK available
  3. Configured: Already in .env as LINK_TOKEN
  4. Compatible: Same interface as canonical LINK (ERC20)
  5. Ready: No deployment needed - can proceed immediately

Current Configuration

# smom-dbis-138/.env
LINK_TOKEN=0xb7721dD53A8c629d9f1Ba31a5819AFe250002b03
CCIP_FEE_TOKEN=0xb7721dD53A8c629d9f1Ba31a5819AFe250002b03

Why Not Deploy Canonical Address

Canonical Address: 0x514910771AF9Ca656af840dff83E8264EcF986CA

Challenges:

  1. CREATE2 Required: Cannot deploy to exact address using standard CREATE
  2. Complex Setup: Requires CREATE2Factory + salt calculations
  3. Unnecessary: Existing LINK token works perfectly for CCIP fees
  4. Time Consuming: Would delay Phase 3 deployment

Status: Address is empty on ChainID 138 (confirmed)


🚀 Action Plan

For Phase 3 Bridge Deployment:

  1. Verify LINK Token (already done):

    cast code 0xb7721dD53A8c629d9f1Ba31a5819AFe250002b03 \
      --rpc-url http://192.168.11.211:8545
    
  2. Verify Supply (already done):

    • ~999,980 LINK available at deployer address
  3. Configuration Ready (already done):

    • LINK_TOKEN set in .env
    • CCIP_FEE_TOKEN set in .env
  4. Proceed with Bridge Deployment:

    • Use existing LINK token for fee payments
    • No deployment needed

📋 Summary

Aspect Status Notes
Existing LINK Token Ready 0xb7721dD53A8c629d9f1Ba31a5819AFe250002b03
Canonical Address Empty Would require CREATE2
Token Supply Sufficient ~999,980 LINK
Configuration Complete Already in .env
Deployment Needed No Ready to use

Decision: USE EXISTING LINK TOKEN - Proceed with Phase 3 bridge deployment.


Status: DECISION MADE - READY FOR PHASE 3
