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.

AMD's stock surges for second straight day on upbeat analyst outlook and retail mania

AMD's stock surges for second straight day on upbeat analyst outlook and retail mania

The post AMD's stock surges for second straight day on upbeat analyst outlook and retail mania appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. AMD stock jumped again Tuesday, rising another 4% in premarket after rallying a ridiculous 24% the day before. That surge came right after the company locked in a major deal with OpenAI, the same day Jefferies slapped a massive upgrade on the stock. The brokerage firm hiked AMD’s price target from $170 to $300, a bold 82% increase, and moved the rating from “hold” to “buy.” That $300 call represents almost a 50% jump from where AMD closed on Monday, which was $203.71. The Jefferies call wasn’t just some surface-level optimism. Analysts there laid out an even bigger upside case, $400 per share, if the AI server market goes even faster and AMD eats more of Nvidia’s lunch. If that scenario plays out, AMD shares would nearly double from where they’re sitting now. The stock’s Monday surge alone dragged the Nasdaq Composite to a new all-time high. AMD soared, and in a twist, Nvidia dropped. That role reversal didn’t go unnoticed on the street. OpenAI takes 10% stake as AMD commits massive GPU power The big trigger behind this price explosion is AMD’s newly announced deal with OpenAI. The company behind ChatGPT is giving AMD a vote of confidence, and up to a 10% stake, in exchange for years’ worth of GPU rollout. The plan is to deploy 6 gigawatts of AMD Instinct GPUs over several years, which is a serious buildout (measured in gigawatts, not just chips), proving just how massive the AI infrastructure race has become. Blayne Curtis, analyst at Jefferies, called it a “multi-generational opportunity” in a note to clients Monday night. He admitted the upgrade wasn’t even on the table before the announcement, but the deal “forced his hand.” His note said, “AMD will still have to hit milestones, but this is a strong validation of…

Two Big News from Polymarket: Received $2 Billion Investment from Global Giant and Announced New Bitcoin (BTC) Feature!

Two Big News from Polymarket: Received $2 Billion Investment from Global Giant and Announced New Bitcoin (BTC) Feature!

The post Two Big News from Polymarket: Received $2 Billion Investment from Global Giant and Announced New Bitcoin (BTC) Feature! appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Polymarket, the largest cryptocurrency prediction market, has made a move towards Bitcoin (BTC). Accordingly, Polymarket announced the launch of its Bitcoin deposit feature. Polymarket has introduced a Bitcoin deposit feature that greatly expands users’ funding options. This feature expands the range of deposit assets supported by the platform and allows investors who directly own Bitcoin to participate in the market without converting their BTC into stablecoins. This development, which coincided with Bitcoin reaching an all-time high, was interpreted as Polymarket’s strategy to reduce barriers to participation in the prediction market and increase liquidity. The platform currently supports multiple tokens across Ethereum (ETH), Polygon, Base, Arbitrum (ARB), and Solana (SOL). Founded in 2020, Polymarket is a cryptocurrency-based prediction market where users buy and sell stocks on future events. Polymarket, which has gained popularity thanks to global interest in the 2024 US presidential election, recently integrated Chainlink oracles for price-driven betting. $2 Billion Investment in Polymarket! While Polyamarket was introducing its Bitcoin feature, it was stated that NYSE’s parent company, ICE, would invest $2 billion in Polyamarket. According to the Wall Street Journal, Intercontinental Exchange (ICE), the world’s largest stock exchange group and the parent company of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), is expected to invest $2 billion in Polymarket. According to the WSJ, while the details of the news are not yet known, Polymarket confirmed ICE’s investment in the prediction market with an X post immediately after the news. “We are excited to announce that Intercontinental Exchange (ICE), the parent company of the NYSE, will be making a $2 billion strategic investment at a $9 billion valuation,” Polymarket wrote in its post. We are excited to announce that Intercontinental Exchange (ICE) — the parent company of @NYSE, is making a $2b strategic investment at a $9b post-money valuation. Together, we’re…

‘Golden Age’ of Prediction Markets Dawns as Activity Reaches New Highs

‘Golden Age’ of Prediction Markets Dawns as Activity Reaches New Highs

The post ‘Golden Age’ of Prediction Markets Dawns as Activity Reaches New Highs appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Polymarket and Kalshi continue to battle for supremacy with new partnerships and investment announcements. After a slow ramp-up throughout 2025, the rivalry between Kalshi and Polymarket is intensifying, pushing cumulative prediction market activity to new highs, while volumes reach their highest levels since the 2024 presidential election. September marked Polymarket’s highest volume month this year with $1.43 billion in volume, according to DeFiLlama. Meanwhile, Kalshi closed its best month yet, processing just over $3 billion in volume in September. According to Dune Analytics, the week ending September 29 marked the prediction market sector’s highest seven-day volume stretch since the 2024 presidential election, with total volume of $1.45 billion, compared to $1.98 billion during election week. Meanwhile, activity and unique transactions on prediction markets have hit new all-time highs for three consecutive weeks, led by Kalshi’s 3.4 million weekly transactions. The discrepancy between total volume and unique transactions suggests a higher proportion of low-value transactions, as opposed to election week, which featured massive bets on highly liquid markets. Cumulative Prediction Market Transactions – Dune Analytics There appears to be a significant development almost every week in the prediction market space, with today’s notable news being a $2 billion investment in Polymarket from the operator of the New York Stock Exchange, Intercontinental Exchange (ICE). Although both market leaders are benefiting from the betting frenzy, Kalshi has reportedly taken a firm lead in the race. However, it is worth noting that Kalshi markets are not onchain, meaning their data is sourced from centralized APIs, as opposed to Polymarket’s decentralized infrastructure. “I think the idea of “prediction market wars” is overstated. The total addressable market is so large that multiple players can succeed. This isn’t a winner-takes-all space. In crypto, there’s too much PvP energy when what we really need is cooperation. Both the…

How Space-Based Quantum Key Distribution Solves Centralized Security Risks

How Space-Based Quantum Key Distribution Solves Centralized Security Risks

Centralized key servers—controlled by big tech—make today’s encryption systems fast but dangerously vulnerable to quantum threats, surveillance, and single-point failures. Satellite Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) decentralizes security by distributing encryption keys through entangled quantum particles stored in orbit, beyond any authority’s control. This approach ensures global coverage, user-owned security, and quantum-proof protection for Web 3.0. Though challenges remain in performance and accessibility, platforms like Space-Based QKD are leading the way toward a secure, decentralized internet powered by quantum technology.

Why Oracle stock is crashing today

Why Oracle stock is crashing today

The post Why Oracle stock is crashing today  appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Oracle (NYSE: ORCL) shares are tumbling as investors react to reports questioning the company’s profitability in its artificial intelligence (AI) segment. On Tuesday, the stock fell as much as 7% before paring some losses to trade about 5% lower at $277 by press time. ORCLE one-week stock price chart. Source: Finbold According to internal documents cited by The Information, Oracle generated roughly $900 million in revenue from renting servers powered by Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) chips during the three months ending in August. However, the company posted only $125 million in gross profit, translating to a slim 14% margin. This level of profitability is lower than many traditional non-technology businesses and fell short of equity analysts’ expectations. The report also revealed that while Oracle’s AI cloud sales nearly tripled over the past year, margins remained inconsistent, ranging from below 10% to slightly above 20%, with an average near 16%.  Compounding the issue, Oracle reportedly incurred significant losses from renting smaller quantities of both newer and older Nvidia chips. When factoring in additional depreciation, profitability could fall by another seven percentage points. In one notable figure, Oracle was reported to have lost $100 million in the most recent quarter from renting out Nvidia’s latest Blackwell chips. ORCL stock reverses gains  The sell-off marks a sharp reversal from recent highs. Oracle’s stock had surged in September after announcing a series of massive AI cloud deals, including a five-year, $300 billion contract with OpenAI.  The company also disclosed a contract backlog of $455 billion, up more than 350% year over year, and projected cloud infrastructure revenue could climb from $18 billion this fiscal year to $144 billion by 2030. That optimism had positioned Oracle as a serious contender in the AI infrastructure race and helped drive the stock to record levels. Featured image via…

Can Decentralized Finance Truly Fix Global Credit Inequality, or Will New Forms of Exclusion Emerge?

Can Decentralized Finance Truly Fix Global Credit Inequality, or Will New Forms of Exclusion Emerge?

In 2022, over 200 bank accounts in Canada were frozen without notice, leaving protesters unable to access their money. This event highlighted what many have felt for years: traditional finance isn't just slow or costly, it's a system with hidden gatekeepers who decide who can access money, credit and economic opportunities.
