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.

Oracle Health Achieves QHIN Designation, Enhancing Data Interoperability

The post Oracle Health Achieves QHIN Designation, Enhancing Data Interoperability appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Terrill Dicki Nov 21, 2025 09:21 Oracle Health secures a Qualified Health Information Network designation under TEFCA, reinforcing its leadership in healthcare data interoperability and offering seamless data exchange across the ecosystem. Oracle Health, a subsidiary of Oracle, has been recognized as a Qualified Health Information Network (QHIN) under the Trusted Exchange Framework and Common Agreement (TEFCA), according to oracle.com. This designation marks a significant milestone in Oracle Health’s efforts to lead the charge in healthcare data interoperability, facilitating secure and standardized health information exchange nationwide. Empowering Healthcare with Interoperability The Oracle Health Information Network is designed to simplify the complexities of data interoperability for healthcare providers. By leveraging Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), the network offers robust scalability, security, and performance, enabling efficient health data sharing and reducing reliance on third-party technologies. This initiative aligns with Oracle’s broader commitment to supporting the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services’ Digital Health Ecosystem and Interoperability Framework. Seema Verma, Executive Vice President and General Manager of Oracle Health and Life Sciences, emphasized the importance of data interoperability, stating, “Becoming a Designated QHIN marks another milestone in Oracle’s commitment and investment to enable safe and secure interoperability that puts patients first.” She highlighted the potential of interoperability to enhance healthcare outcomes by harnessing AI, improving care quality, and scaling value-based care. Streamlining Healthcare Data Exchange With the QHIN designation, Oracle Health customers gain a unified point of connectivity across the healthcare ecosystem, eliminating the need for multiple exchange networks. This integration not only provides a comprehensive view of patient health but also reduces redundant testing and clinical processes. The Oracle Health Information Network supports seamless data exchange, allowing for improved care decisions and streamlined authorizations and reimbursements. Oracle Health customers can participate in the network for…

Chainlink Anchors Tokenization as LINK Defends $11.65

Chainlink Anchors Tokenization as LINK Defends $11.65

The post Chainlink Anchors Tokenization as LINK Defends $11.65 appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Grayscale Research has released a new report arguing that Chainlink’s technology now sits at the center of efforts to connect public blockchains with traditional financial infrastructure. The paper, titled “The LINK Between Worlds,” describes Chainlink as “critical connective tissue” between on-chain and off-chain systems and says its software could be essential for tokenization and decentralized finance (DeFi). Chainlink Positioned as Core Plumbing for Tokenization In the report, Grayscale analysts say public blockchains cannot support large-scale finance unless they reliably talk to real-world data and existing institutions. Chainlink’s tools, they argue, provide that missing connection layer for everything from asset prices to settlement events. Chainlink Tokenization Bridge. Source: Grayscale  on X The research notes that most financial assets still live off-chain today. Tokenized versions account for only about 0.01% of the combined value of global equity and bond markets, leaving “enormous” room for expansion as more instruments move onto blockchains. Tokenized Assets Market Comparison. Source: Grayscale Research Because of this gap, Grayscale frames Chainlink’s role in tokenization as primarily infrastructure. The network’s data feeds, automation tools and cross-chain messaging are presented as the rails that can let banks, asset managers and market utilities interact with public blockchains while keeping existing processes and controls. From ‘Oracle’ to Modular Middleware The report pushes back on the idea of Chainlink as only a price-feed “oracle.” Instead, Grayscale describes it as modular middleware that lets smart-contract applications safely pull in outside information, talk to other blockchains and meet compliance requirements. Under this framing, Chainlink’s oracle networks are one component of a broader stack. The paper highlights features such as cross-chain communication, which can move messages and value between different networks, and services that can help institutions meet reporting or audit needs when they interact with DeFi protocols. According to Grayscale, this middleware approach means developers…

Kaito, Polymarket have launched the first “verifiable mindshare markets"

Kaito, Polymarket have launched the first “verifiable mindshare markets"

The post Kaito, Polymarket have launched the first “verifiable mindshare markets" appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Kaito, the Web3 information platform that specializes in indexing hard-to-reach crypto data, has launched what it describes as the first “verifiable mindshare markets” on Polymarket, opening a new category of prediction markets built on AI-derived sentiment, popularity, and social media chatter.  The partnership also highlights the work of two other partners of Kaito, with the three of them working at the intersection of AI, cryptography, and decentralized markets: Kaito for data and inference, Brevis for zero-knowledge verification, and EigenCloud for auditable AI compute. Polymarket opens a new category of markets Kaito announced the collaboration on X, stating that “This is the start of a new category – where anyone, anywhere can predict mindshare, sentiment, and popularity for anything.”  The Kaito-Polymarket product is designed to be verifiable at every stage, which is quite different from traditional sentiment indices or social-media-driven indicators, which rely on opaque algorithms. Kaito wrote “transforming AI from opaque to a verifiable system is a challenging task,” and to solve that challenge, it partnered with EigenCloud using its EigenAI product, which enables it to turn “what used to be an opaque model into verifiable compute that anyone can audit before Polymarket settles payouts.” EigenCloud wrote on X, that “AI creates the markets, EigenCloud makes the AI verifiable, and Polymarket brings it to the world,” and went further to describe the launch as “the beginning of verifiable markets.” Proprietary algorithms will be auditable The second leg of the technical system comes from Brevis, a zero-knowledge proving service that allows Kaito to keep its proprietary scoring algorithms private while still enabling users to verify that the calculations were performed correctly. Pointing out the challenge it solves for Kaito and how it ties into the Polymaket, Brevis wrote on X, “prediction markets only work if participants trust the data feeding them.…

ROI Can’t Save Us: Why Today’s Money Fails at Humanity’s Biggest Problems

ROI Can’t Save Us: Why Today’s Money Fails at Humanity’s Biggest Problems

We don’t lack ideas or tools to clean up; we lack a monetary logic that funds non-ROI necessities at planetary scale. If we keep asking capital markets to solve problems that don’t return capital, we will keep getting underinvestment. The path forward is to redefine what we’re willing—and able—to finance, with mechanisms built for public goods rather than profits alone.
