What is Pyth Network?
@Pyth Network $PYTH is a new generation decentralized oracle, specializing in providing high-quality financial market data for blockchain applications. Unlike many traditional oracles that rely on public data sources.
Pyth focuses on sourcing data directly from financial institutions, exchanges, investment funds, and major market makers. This helps ensure accuracy, real-time updates, and reduces the risk of data manipulation. Pyth currently supports various types of data such as stock prices, foreign exchange, commodities, and especially cryptocurrency prices.
History of Formation
@Pyth Network $PYTH launched in 2021, initially developed on the Solana ecosystem to leverage fast processing capabilities and low transaction fees. The project was founded and supported by Jump Crypto along with many major financial institutions worldwide. Throughout the development process, Pyth expanded to multiple blockchains through the 'Wormhole' bridge, making it one of the leading multi-chain oracles. As a result, DeFi applications on Ethereum, BNB Chain, Avalanche, Aptos, Sui, and many other networks can utilize Pyth's data.
Project Goals
The goal of Pyth Network is to become the standard data infrastructure for Web3, providing transparent, accurate, and real-time data for decentralized financial protocols. By directly connecting with reputable financial institutions, Pyth aims to bridge the gap between traditional financial markets and blockchain. Additionally, the project focuses on building a model that incentivizes community participation, where both data providers and data users benefit, contributing to a fair and sustainable ecosystem.
