This presentation from Matthias, co-founder of Pragma, outlined recent work on Pragma Oracles for Starknet, focusing on advanced data feeds and a new solution called PragmaX.
Key takeaways:
- Pragma Overview: Pragma has been the main oracle provider on Starknet for the past eight months, offering data to DApps and DeFi protocols.
- Computational Feeds: Pragma leverages computational feeds for complex data types, offering provable computations beyond simple price feeds, enhancing efficiency and security for DeFi.
- Challenges & Goals: Pragma aims to tackle high-frequency updates, openness, and cross-rollup compatibility for broader accessibility.
- Madara Development: The Madara stack was created to facilitate a modular, optimized infrastructure with customizable layers for execution, settlement, sequencing, data availability, and governance.
- PragmaX: A layer-3 chain optimized for storage proofs and efficient data access, ensuring seamless integration and verification across different chains.
- Demo & High-Frequency Data: Live demonstrations showed real-time updates, highlighting the potential for frequent, complex data feeds that could transform DeFi applications.
The talk emphasized innovation, security, and flexibility for oracle solutions and decentralized data infrastructure.
