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.

Vitalik Buterin Signs ‘Trustless Manifesto,’ Rebukes Relayers

Vitalik Buterin Signs ‘Trustless Manifesto,’ Rebukes Relayers

The post Vitalik Buterin Signs ‘Trustless Manifesto,’ Rebukes Relayers appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Vitalik Buterin has signed the new “Trustless Manifesto,” a direct rebuke of rising “convenience centralization” within the Ethereum ecosystem via relayers. The manifesto, co-authored by Marissa Posner and Yoav Weiss, states Ethereum’s success is measured by “trust reduced per transaction,” not “transactions per second.” The move re-centers Ethereum’s cypherpunk ethos as TradFi enters and coincides with a16z’s push for “trustless” ZKP digital identities. Vitalik Buterin signed the Trustless Manifesto on Nov 13 and shared the link, establishing a public pledge that tells Ethereum teams to rely on math and consensus, not intermediaries. The move sets an immediate standard for relayers, sequencers, hosted nodes, and oracle pipelines as L2 UX and identity products ship into year-end. Related: Is Cypherpunk’s “encrypted Bitcoin” thesis a revival of privacy in crypto? The Manifesto: ‘Trust Reduced Per Transaction,’ Not TPS The manifesto was authored by Buterin in collaboration with Marissa Posner and Yoav Weiss. It directly addresses the next growth phase of Ethereum. According to the text, Ethereum was not created simply to make finance “efficient,” but to build global communities without trusting any intermediary. “We do not outsource neutrality to anyone who can be bribed, coerced, or shut down.We measure success not by transactions per second, but by trust reduced per transaction,”  the manifesto noted. The document urges Ethereum developers to build protocols that are open and self-sovereign. It poetically warns users to avoid protocols that advocate “faith in intermediaries,” even if they offer an enhanced user experience (UX).  “In the end, the world does not need more efficient middlemen. It needs fewer reasons to trust them,” the account abstraction team added. Why it Matters Now A Rebuke to ‘Convenience Centralization’ This call to action comes as the Ethereum network, which secures $77.9 billion in Total Value Locked (TVL), faces increasing political influence.

Only 10% of crypto earns yield now — why most investors are sitting on dead money

Crypto has spent years building yield infrastructure, such as staking on Ethereum and Solana, yield-bearing stablecoins, DeFi lending protocols, and tokenized Treasuries. The pipes already exist, the APYs are live, yet only 8% to 11% of the total crypto market generates yield today, compared to 55% to 65% of traditional financial (TradFi) assets, according to […] The post Only 10% of crypto earns yield now — why most investors are sitting on dead money appeared first on CryptoSlate.

Aave plans to remove several volatile tokens, including CRV and UNI, from its staking eligibility list.

Aave plans to remove several volatile tokens, including CRV and UNI, from its staking eligibility list.

PANews reported on November 13th that, according to DeFi researcher Ignas, Aave is voting to set the LTV of tokens such as $CRV, $UNI, $ZK, $BAL, $LDO, 1INCH, $METIS, and $CAKE to 0 and remove lending services due to a 15%–50% jump in a single oracle update during the crash on October 10th (early morning of October 11th Beijing time) and the risk of bad debt caused by delayed price feeds. Ignas pointed out that there was a price difference of about 58% between Chainlink price feeds and DEX prices, resulting in ~$200K of funds being arbitrageurized; the total staking income of these assets in the past three months was about $14K, and the borrowing income was low (e.g., CRV annualized ~$80K). He himself, as a delegator, has voted in favor.

(AP Photo/Sue Ogrocki) Copyright 2025 The Associated Press. All rights reserved. November 11, 2025 was an historic day for Major League Baseball managers. On that day, Cleveland Guardians manager Stephen Vogt, 41, was selected as the 2025 American League Manager of the Year. It was the second consecutive year Vogt was honored with the award. Vogt made history, when he became the first manager to be named Manager of the Year in his first two seasons.’ The other two American League finalists for the Manager of the Year Award were John Schneider of the World Series runner-up Toronto Blue Jays, and Seattle Mariners manager, Dan Wilson.88 Milwaukee Brewers manager, Pat Murphy, 66, was named the National League Manager of the Year. He, too, won the award for a second consecutive year. Murphy managed the San Diego Padres for 95 games in 2015. Vogt faced some incredible obstacles in his stewardship of the Guardians. -First and foremost, his Guardians team finished with a .226 team batting average. Only the Los Angeles Angels were lower, at .225. -The Guardians scored 643 runs, ahead of only the Colorado Rockies and the Pittsburgh Pirates in all of Major League Baseball. Only the Rockies had a worse on-base percentage than the .292 recorded by the Guardians. Yet, despite that alarmingly low offensive production, the Guardians won the American League Central Division, with a record of 88-74, one game ahead of the Detroit Tigers. The Guardians went on to lose the American League Wild Card Series, 2-1, to those same Detroit Tigers. CLEVELAND, OHIO – OCTOBER 02: Hunter Gaddis #33 of the Cleveland…

Yahoo Finance readers will now access market-driven probabilities tied to macro events, token listings, upgrade calls, regulatory outcomes and more, all in one dashboard. This step brings on-chain forecasting into everyday investing and may reshape how crypto catalysts are priced in. Yahoo Finance is adding a powerful new dimension to its data suite, live outcomes from prediction markets powered by Polymarket. The deal signals prediction odds are moving out of niche crypto corners into mainstream investing. Read More: Chainlink Partners with Polymarket to Accelerate $100B Network of Oracle Ecosystem What the Partnership Means for Investors Yahoo Finance’s integration of Polymarket’s odds converts speculative event-outcomes into data signals that investors can monitor like stocks or macro prints. Event Probabilities Directly on Finance Dashboards For example: when a protocol upgrade date is scheduled or a regulatory decision looms, instead of reading commentary you’ll see a market probability – say, 73% that a DeFi protocol’s token launches by a specific date. That number updates in real-time and influences risk positioning the same way implied vol or futures curve do. This access allows users to: Compare traditional data (earnings estimates, inflation expectations) to prediction market odds. Use probability shifts as early indicators of information flow or sentiment changes. Monitor crypto-specific catalysts (token unlocks, hard forks, ETF filings) through a new lens of crowd-implied probability. Why This Matters for Crypto Markets Mainstream Visibility for Event-driven Tokens Crypto assets often hinge on catalyst events: mainnet launches, regulation, litigation outcome, token unlocks. With Yahoo Finance embedding odds: Token traders can gauge how much risk is already priced in before allocating. Projects get early transparency on sentiment around their launch or upgrade. Economic narratives (e.g., “Will ETH Merge by X…

Crypto Faces 5x Yield Gap To TradFi, But Staking Tokens, RWAs Can Help

Crypto Faces 5x Yield Gap To TradFi, But Staking Tokens, RWAs Can Help

The post Crypto Faces 5x Yield Gap To TradFi, But Staking Tokens, RWAs Can Help appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Cryptocurrency-based yield products still lag far behind their traditional finance (TradFi) counterparts, but new blockchain sectors such as liquid staking tokens (LSTs) and real-world assets (RWAs) are steadily closing the gap, according to a new report co-authored by RedStone Oracles, Gauntlet, Stablewatch and the Tokenized Asset Coalition, shared with Cointelegraph. Only 8% to 11% of cryptocurrencies offer passive yield-generating models, indicating a significant gap compared to 55% to 65% of TradFi assets, a fivefold disparity, the report found. However, stablecoins, RWAs and “blue-chip” yield tokens are rapidly closing decentralized finance’s (DeFi) passive income gap. Emerging regulations, such as the Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for US Stablecoins (GENIUS) Act, passed in July, are helping the industry catch up, resulting in a rising demand for both yield-bearing stablecoins and RWAs, the report says. The GENIUS Act established clear rules for stablecoin collateralization and mandates compliance with Anti-Money Laundering laws. “As clarity emerges, yield-bearing stablecoins are exploding: market capitalization is up 300% YoY, with new protocols launching monthly to capture the opportunity.” RWAs, which are tokenized versions of traditional assets such as bonds or funds, are also introducing new sources of passive income as major institutions recognize the efficiency of onchain settlement. Related: Sonic Labs pivots from speed to survival with business-first strategy Ether and Solana LSTs gain traction Blue-chip yield tokens, such as Ether (ETH) LSTs and Solana (SOL) LSTs, are also gaining traction by creating more capital efficiency for cryptocurrency stakers. Ether Liquid Staking Tokens. Source: Redstone ETH LSTs rose from six million to 16 million in the two years leading up to November, gaining $34 billion in notional value based on today’s prices. LSTs, such as Lido’s stETH (STETH), offer crypto stakers an equivalent of the staked token, which can be traded or deployed in other DeFi protocols, thereby…
