Smart contracts are tracking to be the leading form of digital agreements for key global industries. The vast majority of useful smart contracts extend beyond the blockchain to connect with external sources including data feeds, web APIs, and traditional bank payments. These connected smart contracts access information feeds such as stock prices for financial trades, weather data for insurance contracts, server uptimes for SLAs, and much more.

However, to maintain a connected smart contract’s overall reliability, the inputs and outputs to the contract also need to be secure. In this talk, we’ll define and examine what makes a secure oracle mechanism reliable enough for external data delivery, access to web APIs and off-chain payments.
