Crypto data platform Kaiko integrates with Algoracle, Algorand’s first decentralized

Kaiko, a provider of institutional-grade cryptocurrency market data, today announced a partnership with Algoracle, the first native oracle service on the Algorand blockchain. Kaiko’s cryptocurrency market data will be integrated with Algoracle’s decentralized oracle network, available for use in smart contracts.

Decentralized oracles play a major role in the DeFi economy, and robust oracles are the key to the growth of a blockchain such as Algorand. Oracles enable real-world data to be used in smart contracts on a blockchain, a requirement for executing financial processes that rely on external price data.

Even though layered smart contracts can be immensely powerful tools, they are still limited to the information provided on the blockchain on which they are built. Once Algoracle completes its decentralized oracle infrastructure, Algorand-based applications will be able to subscribe to Kaiko’s rich suite of cryptocurrency data offerings for use in smart contracts.

Kaiko has deep expertise in providing oracle solutions with cryptocurrency market data and has been a major provider to the Ethereum network since 2019.

Algoracle CEO Abdul Osman said: “We believe data providers should be able to offer their services directly to Algorand based applications, and we are excited to begin testing the infrastructure to allow institutional-grade providers like Kaiko to connect with Algorand applications.”

Algoracle started as a winner in Encode’s Algorand fall hackathon, before going on to receive the Algorand foundation’s Price Oracle Supa Grant to build out the service.

Moonshots, on Saturn Network!

They can’t quarantine your mind Saturn.Network is more than a Crypto exchange, first it operates on both the Ethereum and Ethereum Classic chains. They also specialize in free airdrops, and offer 0% on all maker orders. The network also has a wallet web extension, one that I’ve used with Brave browser . It looks like a clone of meta mask, though upgraded recently to look less so. It seamlessly switches between ETH, ETC and Tomo chains. Double check gas prices when switching between them, ETC uses much less but can get stuck on ETH settings. Being on, two chainz, means two native tokens, Saturn ETH DAO and Saturn Classic DAO . Both tokens entitle holders to a share of their Saturn network traffic, and airdrops. The exchange offers airdrops and tools for tokens to do airdrops. I check my wallet on the airdrop function, to see what I can claim. There’s generally something new every month or two. The selection of tokens is unique and eclectic. Made up of deflationary, other exchange, sca...

(Reuters) – St. Louis Federal Reserve Bank President James Bullard on Wednesday upped his view of how fast the U.S. central bank should tighten monetary policy, saying he now believes four interest rate hikes may be in the cards this year. “I actually now think we should maybe go to four hikes in 2022,” Bullard told the Wall Street Journal in an interview.

Long Term Update: 2022 Outlook with entropic methods

Every year i post an outlook using entropic methods explained in the technical section of this blog. Here you can find the 2015 , 2016,   2017,   2018, 2019, 2020 and 2021  forecast update, where you can find more information about this approach. Updated values for bitcoin (in brackets values of last year) using daily data since August 2010 (average data of 4 main exchanges when possible) .    BTC/USD Growth Factor G 1.00130 (1.00104) Shannon Probability P (see this as entropy ) 0.5254 (0.5232) Root mean square RMS (see this as volatility) 0.049 (0.055) Bitcoin’s entropic values versus the Usd improved during 2021,  the Growth Factor (G) grow to 1.00130% compounded daily or 160% yearly, higher then 1y ago. The optimal fraction of your total wealth to invest in bitcoin rised to 5.1%  (~0.5254*2=1.051 – 1 = 0.051 or 5.1% roundable to 5%). Volatility continues to drop year after year and that’s normal as bitcoin gets bigger and bigger so less prone to volatility. The BTCUSD growth fac...
