Oracle

Oracles are essential infrastructure components that feed real-time, off-chain data (such as price feeds, weather, or sports results) into blockchain smart contracts. Without decentralized oracles like Chainlink and Pyth, DeFi could not function. In 2026, oracles have evolved to support verifiable randomness and cross-chain data synchronization. This tag covers the technical evolution of data availability, tamper-proof price feeds, and the critical role oracles play in ensuring the deterministic execution of complex decentralized applications.

Swap Crypto & Bridge Crypto in 2025: Symbiosis, Uniswap v4, 4-Swap

Swap Crypto & Bridge Crypto in 2025: Symbiosis, Uniswap v4, 4-Swap

The post Swap Crypto & Bridge Crypto in 2025: Symbiosis, Uniswap v4, 4-Swap appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. What are crypto swaps, crypto bridges and conversion tools?  We are well past the halfway mark of 2025, and crypto swaps are everywhere. But is that just hype, or does the data back it up? And what exactly is a crypto swap, and how does it differ from bridging or exchanging? In Q2 2025, decentralized exchanges (DEXs) saw a huge 25.3% jump in spot trading volume, hitting over $876 billion. Around the same time, centralized exchanges (CEXs) dropped almost 28%, ending the quarter at $3.9 trillion. A clear trend can be uncovered here: More people are choosing direct crypto swaps over the traditional “sell to fiat, then buy again” method. A crypto swap is a direct, wallet-to-wallet exchange of one digital asset for another — no fiat currency, no order books and no third-party custody. Instead of selling your Bitcoin (BTC) for dollars and then buying Ether (ETH), you swap BTC for ETH in a single step. When people talk about converting crypto, they often mean selling into fiat or using a platform’s internal “conversion” tool, which may add hidden fees, delays or intermediaries. Swapping bypasses these issues, especially when paired with cross-chain swap or bridge crypto solutions for moving assets between different blockchains. Benefits of swapping vs. traditional trading Here’s why many users prefer a decentralized swap over trading through an exchange. Lower fees: Swaps often avoid high trading fees and markups. You will usually only pay small network or smart contract gas costs. Better liquidity access: It avoids thin order books and price slippage. Automated market maker-based swaps tap into liquidity pools, making transactions smoother. Non-custodial control: You keep your own private keys. No Know Your Customer (KYC) process, no trusting a centralized exchange to hold your funds. Faster transactions: With most onchain swaps, the process is almost…

PYTH Surges 70% After US Commerce Department Data Deal

PYTH Surges 70% After US Commerce Department Data Deal

The post PYTH Surges 70% After US Commerce Department Data Deal appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The native token of the Pyth Network surged on Thursday after the project confirmed it had been selected by the US Department of Commerce to verify and distribute economic data onchain — a move that places blockchain technology at the center of official government processes and highlights the important role of data oracles. According to CoinMarketCap, the PYTH token peaked just above $0.20, marking a daily gain of more than 70%. It was last trading just below $0.19, still up about 62% on the day. The rally propelled PYTH to its highest level since February, lifting its market capitalization above $1 billion, while trading volumes skyrocketed more than 2,700% in the past 24 hours. Pyth Network (PYTH) price goes vertical. Source: CoinMarketCap PYTH was the only token to record such massive gains, even though the Commerce Department announcement confirmed that quarterly GDP figures would be published across nine blockchains, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, Tron, Stellar and Avalanche. Chainlink was also named alongside Pyth Network as a key oracle partner in disseminating the data. Where Pyth and Chainlink stand out is in their coordinated role as oracles, ensuring that the government-published data is further disseminated and secured across blockchain networks. Source: Pyth Network Pyth Network is a decentralized oracle system that delivers real-time financial market data directly onto blockchains. Like Chainlink, it provides infrastructure to bring offchain data — such as stock prices, foreign exchange rates and commodities — onchain for use in decentralized finance (DeFi) applications. Related: US Government taps Chainlink, Pyth to publish economic data onchain Trump administration’s pro-crypto push intensifies  US President Donald Trump’s administration’s embrace of blockchain technology comes amid sharp criticism of official government statistics, particularly employment market data published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS).  That tension reached a peak earlier this month after…

Validator Publishes U.S. GDP Data on XRP Ledger, Explains Why the Government Did Not Pick XRP

Validator Publishes U.S. GDP Data on XRP Ledger, Explains Why the Government Did Not Pick XRP

An XRP Ledger (XRPL) validator has shown that the network can easily manage the same task the U.S. Department of Commerce recently carried out on other blockchains. Vet, an XRPL dUNL validator, showed that publishing official economic data on-chain is possible on the XRPL in a simple and low-cost manner. This has further raised questions about why the U.S. government excluded the XRP Ledger from its recent initiative. US Commerce Department Adopts Blockchain For context, the Commerce Department recently announced that it had begun publishing key economic data, starting with GDP figures, directly on public blockchains.  Officials called the move a proof-of-concept to make government data more transparent and trustworthy. For its trial run, the department released a cryptographic hash of the GDP report across nine blockchains: Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, TRON, Stellar, Avalanche, Arbitrum One, Polygon PoS, and Optimism.  The report also remains available in its usual formats, such as PDFs, but blockchain technology now makes it more secure and immutable. The recent development triggered excitement within crypto circles, as it pointed to growing public adoption of blockchain. Validator Publishes US GDP Data on the XRPL However, some XRP proponents noticed that the XRPL was not part of the list, even though it has proven to be a trustworthy destination for low-cost and efficient data storage and transactions. Most insisted that the XRPL could actually handle the task. Interestingly, to prove that the omission had little to do with capability, Vet recreated the government's method on XRPL.  He stored the SHA256 hash of the GDP report in two different ways: once as a memo within a transaction, similar to Bitcoin's approach, and once inside a non-fungible token (NFT) that included both the hash and a link to the original file.  https://twitter.com/Vet_X0/status/1961128118145757325 According to Vet, the entire process took only seconds and cost less than a penny. He stressed that all of this was done using native XRPL features, without the need for smart contracts. In response, one proponent asked whether publishing data directly on XRPL would make services like Chainlink or Pyth unnecessary. Vet explained that while anyone can publish the data manually, distributors like Chainlink and Pyth make it more practical. They broadcast information quickly across multiple blockchains, and this ensures broader reach and reliability. When asked if publishing large amounts of such data on XRPL might eventually slow the network down, Vet noted that memos and NFTs have already proven reliable at scale.  The dUNL validator pointed out that GDP data only comes out once every quarter, which puts less strain on the network compared to real-time price feeds. He also noted that XRPL Oracles could handle heavier loads if needed, giving the ledger even more room to scale. Why the Government Sidelined XRPL Meanwhile, someone suggested that the government chose different chains because of their ability to use smart contracts, which XRPL does not yet support at the base layer.  Responding, Vet admitted that smart contracts add versatility. However, the Commerce Department also published data on Bitcoin, which has no native smart contracts either.  Another critic claimed that the government's decision showed a lack of trust in XRPL. However, Vet disagreed with this suggestion.  Notably, he explained that the Commerce Department relied on Chainlink and Pyth to distribute the GDP data. Since neither service currently supports XRPL, the ledger was simply not included. Vet claimed the decision had nothing to do with bias and had more to do with availability. https://twitter.com/Vet_X0/status/1961135399402721338

Chainlink, Pyth Become Oracle Providers for US Government

Chainlink, Pyth Become Oracle Providers for US Government

The post Chainlink, Pyth Become Oracle Providers for US Government appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The US government has tapped Chainlink and Pyth, two blockchain oracle providers, to publish economic data onchain. Chainlink was selected to provide data feeds from the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA), and will publish additional data feeds in response to consumer demand or at the behest of the US government, a Chainlink spokesperson told Cointelegraph. These feeds include real gross domestic product (GDP), Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) price index, and real final sales to private domestic purchasers, the company said. The Department of Commerce also selected Pyth to be a publisher of gross domestic product (GDP) data — the total economic output in a year — according to an announcement on Thursday. Source: Pyth Network Publishing government data onchain is part of the Trump administration’s plan to make government spending more transparent in a bid to improve accountability and make the US a “world capital” of crypto. Related: Philippine lawmaker to propose putting government budget on blockchain Bringing government economic data onchain will provide positive benefits to spot crypto markets, a Chainlink spokesperson said. These include automated trading strategies that execute based on changing government data, real-time prediction markets for macroeconomic developments and risk-management strategies for decentralized finance (DeFi) protocols. Stablecoins, tokenized government bonds, perpetual futures contracts, real-world tokenized assets (RWAs) and other digital financial instruments reliant on macroeconomic inputs also stand to benefit from onchain government economic data. Proposals to bring public spending data and other macroeconomic figures onchain are currently fomenting in the Philippines, the United Kingdom and El Salvador. Traders eye potential gains for crypto markets The price of Pyth (PYTH) surged by nearly 70% on the news, and Chainlink (LINK) posted modest gains of over 3% before falling back to about $25. LINK has rallied by about 61% since the start of August, going from a…
