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.

Crypto News of the Day: Nvidia Adds $500 Billion—So Why Is SoftBank Selling and Burry Warning? Nvidia’s record-breaking rebound has reignited the AI trade, adding half a trillion dollars in market value within just two trading days. Yet beneath the euphoria, major investors are pulling back, and the warnings are getting louder. Sponsored Sponsored On Monday, Nvidia shares surged 5.8%, marking their largest daily gain since April. Between midday Friday and Monday’s close, the chipmaker added roughly $500 billion in market capitalization, equivalent to $43 billion per trading hour. The rally came after a bruising week in which Nvidia had lost nearly $800 billion in value, highlighting how swiftly capital is rotating in and out of the AI trade. “Nvidia added $500 billion in market cap in just 48 hours — entries into this historic run are scarce,” The Kobeissi Letter wrote. “Dip buyers are still out in full force.” At a $5.1 trillion valuation, Nvidia now represents 8.5% of the S&P 500.

This company just dumped $5.8 billion of Nvidia stock

This company just dumped $5.8 billion of Nvidia stock

The post This company just dumped $5.8 billion of Nvidia stock appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. SoftBank, a Japanese investment holding company, has fully backed out of its Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) stake, selling 32.1 million shares for $5.83 billion. The proceeds will reportedly be used to fund new investments in the artificial intelligence (AI) sector, with $22.5 billion going to OpenAI. What’s more, CEO Masayoshi Son is also courting TSMC (NYSE: TSM) and others to join a proposed $1 trillion AI manufacturing hub in Arizona. Nvidia started this week on a positive note, closing 5.79% in the green on Monday, November 10. However, it is down 1.66% in pre-market on Tuesday, November 11, trading at $195.74 following the news of SoftBank’s share dump. NVDA 1-day price. Source: Finbold Despite the dip, not all analysts believe the sale signals a loss of faith. Rolf Bulk of New Street Research, for instance, argued that SoftBank is merely upping its investment budget for the ongoing quarter.  “This should not be seen, in our view, as a cautious or negative stance on Nvidia, but rather in the context of SoftBank needing at least $30.5 billion of capital for investments in the October–December quarter, including $22.5 billion for OpenAI and $6.5 billion for Ampere,” said Bulk in an interview with CNBC. SoftBank’s asset monetization strategy The timing indeed seems to reflect the holding company’s pivot from merely holding tech stocks to directly investing in the AI ecosystem.  For example, the firm’s tech-oriented venture capital branch subsidiary, Vision Fund, posted a record $19 billion gain last quarter, helping SoftBank double its profit year-over-year. The Nvidia sale is also not unprecedented. Namely, SoftBank had already sold $4 billion worth of NVDA shares back in 2019.  Furthermore, the company still remains a part of Nvidia’s ecosystem through a $500 billion Stargate data center deal announced in February by Son, joined with President Donald Trump,…

Mainnet Launch: A Look at the Monad Ecosystem

Mainnet Launch: A Look at the Monad Ecosystem

Author: Haotian Rumors are circulating about a joint launch between Monad and Coinbase? Stop guessing and let's see what exciting early ecosystem surprises @monad has in store for everyone with the mainnet launch just around the corner: DeFi + Perp Dex: @KuruExchange: A fully on-chain order book DEX, Paradigm led an $11.6 million Series A funding round. Let's see how the CLOB model works on Monad. @DrakeExchange: Perpetual contract DEX, 50x leverage, CLOB+vAMM hybrid model. Will Perps, a high-frequency trading platform paired with a performance chain designed specifically for high-frequency trading, break through the ceiling of Perp DEX? @MondayTrade_: A comprehensive DeFi hub, handling spot trading, limited partners (LPs), and perps, positioned as "CEX speed + DeFi transparency." The concept of a full-stack on-chain trading center will be very trendy; @seertrade: An on-chain trading terminal, "one screen, all-in-one, integrating research, decision-making, and execution." The idea is to create a DeFi version of Bloomberg; the concept is good, but whether it can be successful remains to be seen. Prediction Markets + Games: @kizzymobile: Betting on influencers' social media performance, directly financializing the attention economy. The main focus is high-frequency betting + real-time settlement; @Levr_Bet: A decentralized leveraged sports betting platform with 5x leverage. It's important to know that the pain point of on-chain sports betting is oracle latency, which Monad aims to solve. @RareBetSports: A sports prediction platform with a fully blockchain-based design: smart contracts automatically verify match results and distribute rewards. Core gameplay includes combination betting and predicting player performance, offering a 100x multiplier return. GameFi Games: @LumiterraGame: An MMO game that focuses on "open economy + AI Agent". The AI autonomously trades within the game, and every action is an on-chain transaction, directly testing the underlying blockchain performance; @ExploreOmnia: A pet battle game made by the Sappy Seals team, positioned as a "Pokémon killer." It uses the old P2E+NFT formula; will it connect to a Pokémon blockchain narrative? @TeleMafia: Telegram gangster game, slap and fight interaction, play to earn. Light game + on-chain assets; @fluffleworld: A gamified wellness app that rewards you for putting down your phone, "Touch Grass." The "Focus" feature, which allows you to hatch dragon eggs offline, is a rather interesting anti-phone addiction design. AI Agent: @symphonyio: The AI Agent execution layer enables agents to execute DeFi strategies across protocols and chains. The challenge is to enable AI agents to conduct autonomous transactions; @KINETK_AI: An AI-driven content protection platform that helps creators monitor IP theft across the entire network and hashes content on the blockchain. A necessity for creators' economic needs. Social task type: @bro_dot_fun: A social task reward platform where you earn points by completing X/Twitter tasks. It features meme-style social interaction and lets you climb the leaderboards to win airdrops. Additional: Some of my insights and thoughts: 1) @monad will definitely enter the Perp DEX arena. After all, Hyperliquid's benchmark effect remains, and many projects are relentlessly pursuing it, but so far no newcomer has emerged to challenge it. It remains to be seen whether Monad can deliver a stunning performance after everyone has left the fray. This is definitely worth checking out. 2) Prediction markets + gaming will be the biggest application scenario for crypto in the future, and Monad naturally won't miss this high-frequency application scenario that gathers "attention + funding + daily active users". If Monad had launched a few years earlier, there's reason to believe that @Polymarket wouldn't have partnered with Polygon. Besides, Monad should have a firm grasp on making waves in the gaming industry; 3) AI Agent + x402: This is a long-term narrative that almost all blockchains are vying for, enabling "high-frequency trading + fragmented payments + gaming and heavy consumption scenarios." The x402 payment protocol is perfect for Monad.
