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.

PYTH Surges 50% to $0.1867 After US Government Partnership

PYTH Surges 50% to $0.1867 After US Government Partnership

The post PYTH Surges 50% to $0.1867 After US Government Partnership appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Pyth will initially publish quarterly GDP figures going back five years, with plans to expand into other macroeconomic datasets The news sparked a rapid market response with Pyth’s native token, PYTH, surging approximately 50% in intraday trading The Department of Commerce also partnered with Chainlink to publish multiple macroeconomic indicators, such as GDP, the PCE Price Index, and Real Final Sales Pyth Network has been chosen by the US Department of Commerce (through Secretary Howard Lutnick) to verify and distribute official economic data on-chain. This is a huge step for the crypto industry, showing that the government is now using decentralized technology. Pyth will initially publish quarterly GDP figures going back five years, with plans to expand into other macroeconomic datasets, ushering in a new era of transparent, blockchain-native data. Why Did the US Government Choose Pyth? Already integrated across over 100 blockchains and supporting more than 600 applications, Pyth is positioned as a trusted, decentralized oracle network capable of handling cryptographically verifiable data. Its transparent data model and staking-based security further strengthen its credibility. As expected, the news sparked a rapid market response with Pyth’s native token, PYTH, surging approximately 50% in intraday trading. Its current price is $0.1867. In Q1 2025, Pyth recorded $149.1 billion in Total Transaction Value (TTV), which is a 14.9% drop from Q4’s $175.2 billion. However, the numbers still show a staggering 376.6% increase year-over-year.  Pyth’s market share stayed strong at 32.5%, ahead of Chainlink’s 20.3% despite overall market slowdown. Today’s announcement will likely put Pyth even more in the spotlight and possibly help with a bigger boost in the long term. Chainlink also involved Along with Pyth’s involvement, the Department of Commerce also partnered with Chainlink to publish multiple macroeconomic indicators, such as GDP, the PCE Price Index, and Real Final Sales on…

Real Estate Firm’s Stock Spikes After Revealing First Publicly Traded Chainlink Treasury

Real Estate Firm’s Stock Spikes After Revealing First Publicly Traded Chainlink Treasury

The post Real Estate Firm’s Stock Spikes After Revealing First Publicly Traded Chainlink Treasury appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. In brief Caliber, a publicly traded real estate asset management firm, is starting a Chainlink treasury. The firm will use cash reserves and existing access to capital to acquire LINK. CWD shares jumped nearly 60% on Thursday as the price of LINK itself rose 2.5%. Caliber, a publicly traded real estate asset management company, saw its stock price skyrocket Thursday after announcing that it has adopted a digital assets treasury strategy that will center on Chainlink (LINK). The firm’s strategy was approved by its board of directors, allowing it to allocate a portion of its treasury to acquire LINK—the token that powers a Chainlink’s oracle network, which brings real-world data to blockchain apps. Caliber will use its balance sheet and existing access to capital to acquire LINK, though the firm has not shared how much it intends to acquire.  “This strategy combines what Caliber already does best—raising and managing capital in private equity real estate funds—with one of the most promising financial technologies of our time,” Caliber CEO Chris Loeffler told Decrypt.  “That technology, Chainlink, is directly applicable to our existing real estate business and it will help us to better automate our real estate value calculations (NAV automation), help better administer our funds, and it can help us potentially provide stronger liquidity options for our suite of private funds,” he added.  In addition to the digital asset treasury, the board of directors approved the creation of the Caliber Crypto Advisory Board—a group of crypto and blockchain experts that will help guide the firm’s digital asset treasury strategy. Loeffler told Decrypt that the board’s composition would be announced soon.  Shares in Caliber (CWD) are up 59% since the opening bell on Thursday, now trading hands at $2.70. However, the stock has traded down nearly 4% in the last month…

U.S. Government Taps Pyth Network for Onchain Economic Data

U.S. Government Taps Pyth Network for Onchain Economic Data

The post U.S. Government Taps Pyth Network for Onchain Economic Data appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. In a landmark move, the U.S. Department of Commerce has selected Pyth Network to verify and distribute official economic data onchain. The goal: greater transparency, real-time access, and a public record that can’t be altered. Today’s announcement, made by Howard Lutnick and Donald Trump, signals a major leap for decentralized tech in public data infrastructure. It also validates Pyth’s reputation as a trusted data provider in global finance. The U.S. Department of Commerce has selected Pyth Network to verify & distribute economic data onchain 🏛️ Today’s announcement by @howardlutnick & @realDonaldTrump marks a landmark step for the adoption of decentralization & validates Pyth’s role as a trusted data source 🧵 ⬇️ pic.twitter.com/cOvw8lDNhP — Pyth Network 🔮 (@PythNetwork) August 28, 2025 A Historic Collaboration Pyth has been working closely with the Department of Commerce for months. Now, as the official data source for this initiative, the network will power the verifiable publication of economic stats onchain. Howard Lutnick’s push for data innovation has positioned the U.S. to lead the world in financial transparency. And Pyth is at the center of that vision. With 100+ blockchains and 600+ apps already relying on its data feeds, Pyth combines openness, security, and speed in ways few protocols can match. That made it the ideal choice for the government’s first big onchain data experiment. Why This Move Matters For decades, economic data has been siloed behind agencies, websites, and slow distribution channels. By putting it onchain, the Department of Commerce is ensuring anyone, anywhere, can access the same official numbers at the same time—no middlemen, no delays, no doubts. This move unlocks new opportunities: Transparency: Immutable records remove questions about revisions or data tampering. Access: Developers and businesses can integrate official stats directly into applications. Trust: Onchain publication makes economic data verifiable by design. As Howard…

Criminals Are Vibe Hacking With AI To Carry Out Ransoms At Scale: Anthropic

Criminals Are Vibe Hacking With AI To Carry Out Ransoms At Scale: Anthropic

The post Criminals Are Vibe Hacking With AI To Carry Out Ransoms At Scale: Anthropic appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Despite “sophisticated” guardrails, AI infrastructure company Anthropic said cybercriminals are still finding ways to misuse its AI chatbot Claude to carry out large-scale cyberattacks.  In a “Threat Intelligence” report released Wednesday, members of Anthropic’s Threat Intelligence team, including Alex Moix, Ken Lebedev and Jacob Klein, shared several cases in which criminals had misused the Claude chatbot, with some attacks demanding more than $500,000 in ransom. They found that the chatbot was used not only to provide technical advice to the criminals, but also to directly execute hacks on their behalf through “vibe hacking,” allowing them to perform attacks with only basic knowledge of coding and encryption. Vibe hacking is social engineering using AI to manipulate human emotions, trust and decision-making. In February, blockchain security firm Chainalysis forecast crypto scams may have their biggest year in 2025 as generative AI has made it more scalable and affordable for attacks. Anthropic found one hacker who had been “vibe hacking” with Claude to steal sensitive data from at least 17 organizations — including healthcare, emergency services, government and religious institutions —with ransom demands ranging from $75,000 to $500,000 in Bitcoin. A simulated ransom note demonstrates how cybercriminals leverage Claude to make threats. Source: Anthropic The hacker trained Claude to assess stolen financial records, calculate appropriate ransom amounts and write custom ransom notes to maximize psychological pressure. While Anthropic later banned the attacker, the incident reflects how AI is making it easier for even the most basic-level coders to carry out cybercrimes to an “unprecedented degree.” “Actors who cannot independently implement basic encryption or understand syscall mechanics are now successfully creating ransomware with evasion capabilities [and] implementing anti-analysis techniques.” North Korean IT workers also used Anthropic’s Claude Anthropic also found that North Korean IT workers have been using Claude to forge convincing identities, pass technical…

PYTH Goes Parabolic as Trump Admin Taps Blockchain Oracles for Data Verification

PYTH Goes Parabolic as Trump Admin Taps Blockchain Oracles for Data Verification

PYTH Token Skyrockets on Government Announcement The native token of the Pyth Network surged Thursday after the US Department of Commerce confirmed it had chosen Pyth and Chainlink to help verify and distribute official economic data onchain. According to CoinMarketCap, PYTH briefly peaked above $0.20, gaining more than 70% in a single day before easing slightly to $0.19. The rally lifted its market capitalization above $1 billion, with trading volumes soaring more than 2,700% in 24 hours. Oracles at the Center of Blockchain Integration The Commerce Department’s initiative will see quarterly GDP figures published across nine blockchains, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, Tron, Stellar and Avalanche. Pyth and Chainlink were tapped as key oracle providers, ensuring verified government data is disseminated securely across decentralized networks. Both platforms specialize in bridging offchain financial data such as stock prices, commodities and FX rates into blockchain ecosystems for DeFi applications. Trump Administration’s Pro-Crypto Shift The move reflects the Trump administration’s increasingly proactive stance on blockchain adoption. It comes amid heated debate over the reliability of official government statistics, particularly labor market data published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). Earlier this month, President Trump accused the BLS of manipulating figures after a major downward jobs revision, subsequently dismissing Commissioner Erika McEntarfer. Broader Push for Digital Asset Adoption The blockchain data initiative complements a series of pro-crypto legislative efforts under Trump’s leadership. Recent milestones include passage of the GENIUS Stablecoin Act, House approval of a comprehensive market structure bill, and progress on an anti-CBDC measure. At the regulatory level, Trump’s SEC has approved multiple cryptocurrency ETFs and clarified that liquid staking is not a security, signaling a friendlier stance toward innovation in digital assets.

Lombard brings yield-bearing LBTC to Solana

Lombard brings yield-bearing LBTC to Solana

The post Lombard brings yield-bearing LBTC to Solana appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Lombard Finance has launched its liquid-staked Bitcoin token, LBTC, on Solana, bringing yield-bearing Bitcoin to the high-throughput blockchain. The token, which represents Bitcoin staked through a decentralized consortium of 14 regulated custodians, has a circulating supply of around 1.5 billion LBTC and generates roughly 1% yield denominated in BTC. According to Lombard, the move enables users to deploy LBTC across Solana’s decentralized finance platforms for lending, perpetual trading, and other applications without sacrificing speed or security. The expansion follows LBTC’s rapid growth across Ethereum and other ecosystems, where it has reached more than $2 billion in supply and established integrations with over 70 protocols.  Earlier this month, Lombard introduced automatic yield accrual, simplifying user experience by embedding staking rewards directly into the token’s value. Partners on Solana include Drift, Jupiter, Kamino, Meteora, and oracle providers such as Pyth and RedStone, positioning LBTC as a base asset in trading and liquidity strategies. In the release, Solana Foundation growth lead Jiani Chen welcomed the news, saying “Lombard’s LBTC is the first yield-bearing Bitcoin to join the ecosystem, with the scale and liquidity needed to position Solana as a high-performance liquidity hub for BTC. LBTC’s native yield and deep DeFi integrations unlock a new chapter for Solana DeFi.” This article was generated with the assistance of AI and reviewed by editor Jeffrey Albus before publication.
