API3’s Oracle Stack integration with XLayerOfficial
At the heart of this collaboration is API3’s Oracle stack, which will be deployed on XLayer in the near future. This integration gives developers access to more than 160 decentralized data feeds that are seamlessly integrated with the OEVNetwork. The goal is to leverage the potential of the MEV (Miner Extractable Value) protocol by providing developers on XLayer with reliable and verifiable data feeds.
XLayerOfficial, built on Ethereum’s Layer 2 network using zkEVM validium technology, offers unparalleled scalability and low costs. With the integration of API3’s oracle stack, dApps on XLayer gains the ability to access decentralized data maintained on-chain without the need to manage any infrastructure.
This approach ensures source transparency, eliminates middlemen, and facilitates the efficient delivery of real-world data, improving the overall user experience and reliability of decentralized applications.
Empowering developers with enhanced functionality
One of the key highlights of this collaboration is the integration of API3’s QRNG (Quantum Resistant Random Number Generator) technology. This feature gives developers on XLayerOfficial access to an advanced solution for generating truly random numbers on-chain.
The importance of randomness cannot be overstated, especially in applications such as NFT coins, blockchain gaming and gambling, where fairness and reliability are of paramount importance.
Looking ahead, the upcoming launch of the OEV Network promises even greater possibilities for protocols that leverage API3’s decentralized data feeds on XLayerOfficial. With a vertically integrated solution to recapture MEV, dApps can seamlessly access data feeds in the API3 marketplace, activate the OEV network, and start earning rewards.
This synergy between API3 and XLayerOfficial sets a new standard for decentralized data provision and underlines the transformative potential of collaboration within the blockchain ecosystem.
