WOO Network will use Chainlink to launch customized institutional oracles

"The research-driven initiative combines WOO Network’s liquidity provision strategies with Chainlink’s robust oracle technology to create customized Chainlink oracles based on WOO’s market data."



The need for highly reliable market data

"The DEX relies on highly-granular market data from the WOO Network to be pushed frequently into the blockchain in order to replicate a CeFi order book on-chain.

Unlike other market data oracles that push an update after the price deviates a set amount from the previous price, WOOFi needed additional parameters including mid-price, spread, and a liquidity coefficient. WOOFi also requires the oracle to be updated more often in order to ensure the DEX can operate with only 0.1% swap fees.

On top of these demanding requirements, it was also essential that the oracle technology be capable of maintaining highly consistent uptime, even in volatile market conditions, and the Chainlink proved to be a natural fit for supporting this customized solution."

Oracle Computation: Expanding the Purpose of Oracles to Data Delivery and Off-Chain Computation

Key takeaways:

o The purpose of oracles extends beyond delivering external data to blockchains. Oracles can also perform a new type of trust-minimized off-chain computation on behalf of smart contracts, referred to as “oracle computation.”

o Oracle computation falls in between centralized Web 2.0 computation and decentralized blockchain computation, achieving more performance and feature richness than blockchains while being more tamper-resistant and transparent than Web 2.0 systems.

o Oracle computation extends the capabilities of smart contract execution by increasing scalability, cost-efficiency, and privacy, as well as granting access to new features like order fairness, verifiable randomness, off-chain aggregation, and transaction automation.

o Chainlink offers applications a vast array of services powered by oracle computation, including Chainlink Keepers, Chainlink Verifiable Random Function (VRF), Off-Chain Reporting (OCR), and the Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP).

Chainlink price to explode by 55% as VRF receives another integration

Fireworks Games integrates Chainlink VRF

"Chainlink has been the go-to oracle in the cryptocurrency ecosystem and its subsets. With a majority of the applications and platforms connected to the oracles, LINK seems to be the glue holding the space together.

In a recent announcement, Firework Games: Spark Era Trilogy revealed that it integrated Chainlink’s Verifiable Random Function (VRF) on the Polygon mainnet. The tamper-proof and auditable source of randomness is needed to empower the loot box system and all in-game mechanics that require randomness.

Since Chainlink features are transparent, it allows a good gaming experience and a fair “Play-to-Earn” gaming environment.

The CEO of Firework Games stated,

I believe that Chainlink is one of the most famous projects in the crypto space. By using Chainlink VRF, our players will have more confidence in terms of fair gameplay and help our community grow exponentially."

Chainlink Awards Grant to the Blockchain for Social Impact Coalition (BSIC)

"The combination of blockchains, oracles, and APIs offers society a new hybrid smart contract infrastructure, capable of hosting tamper-proof digital agreements that are fully integrated with legacy systems and reliably enforced without a central administrator. While hybrid smart contracts can improve efficiency and limit the counterparty risk of existing business processes, they can also support new technological solutions for social good that go beyond material gains. This is why the Chainlink Community Grant Program has launched a Social Impact Initiative centered around creating a more economically fair world using hybrid smart contracts, both to stimulate major technological leaps in emerging markets and drastically reduce systemic risk in developed markets.

In support of fostering social impact through hybrid smart contracts, we’re excited to award a social impact grant to the Blockchain for Social Impact Coalition (BSIC) and sponsor teams in its Decentralized Impact Incubator. As part of the grant, Chainlink will join BSIC as a coalition member, enabling us to support, mentor, and lend expertise to BSIC and the many development teams in its Decentralized Impact Incubator program using Chainlink to build blockchain-based solutions. Most notably, Chainlink can accelerate the overall education process for how to utilize oracle solutions in hybrid smart contract applications across social impact verticals."

Chainlink price attempts breakout, but LINK is capped at $30

CRYPTOS | 9/29/2021 8:55:14 PM GMT

"Chainlink price gets massive support against the $22.25 value area.
Bulls push for a close above the Tenkan-Sen at $23.60.

A flash spike in price higher could generate Chainlink bulls a +36% gain from the Wednesday open – but intense resistance would prevent any further increase.

Chainlink could pull off an extreme bullish close today if it remains above $23.02. A close at or above $23.02 would confirm a bullish engulfing candlestick as well as a close above the daily Tenkan-Sen, granting bulls some reprieve."

WE WILL COLLABORATE WITH CHAINLINK LABS ON RESEARCH AROUND ORACLES IN INDUSTRIES BEYOND DEFI
13 September 2021

"Chainlink Labs is an ideal research partner for looking into how oracles can be applied in markets segments beyond DeFi

The collaboration between TECNALIA ans Chainlink Labs will allow both organisations to identify opportunities for applying hybrid smarts and oracles in key global industries, with the goal of bringing additional value to its stakeholders, such as greater efficiency, lower costs, higher security guarantees, enhanced user privacy, and potentially even the introduction of use cases not yet imagined.

Oracles are external entities tasked with performing services on behalf of smart contracts, most notable retrieving external data, computing upon it, and delivering it back to the blockchain as a single trusted value. Combining the external connectivity and trust-minimized computation of oracles with blockchains introduces a framework for hybrid smart contracts on chain logic that is augmented by off-chain resources, enabling smart contracts to achieve new features like scalability, confidentiality, and external connectivity. The result is a much more advanced substrate for building decentralized applications on blockchains."

Thanks lakingsphan. I actually just bought some ADA about a week ago. I'd been watching it for awhile. I agree about ADA having more potential than ETH. That's what it was designed to be.

"Cardano is designed to be a next-gen evolution of the Ethereum idea. It’s intended to be a flexible, sustainable, and scalable platform for running smart contracts, which will allow the development of a wide range of decentralized finance apps, new crypto tokens, games, and more."
