oracles
tl;dr
-
price oracles are any defi tool showing an asset's price. they can either on or off chain.
-
oracles should provide a trustless way of getting extrinsic (off-chain) information, and some key functions such as: collecting data from an off-chain source, transfering the data on-chain with a signed message, and making the data available by putting it in a smart contract’s storage.
-
oracle exploitation can generate profit opportunities (e.g., through arbitrage or liquidation, multi-block)
