Elrond to integrate oracles to seamlessly access cross-chain and off-chain data

• Elrond will soon integrate DIA oracles to access cross-chain and off-chain data. 
• DIA aggregates information from both centralized finance and DeFi platforms.
• DIA users can get access to essential data, such as digital asset prices and lending rates.

Elrond (ERD) CEO, Beniamin Mincu, recently announced that the scalable blockchain protocol would integrate Decentralized Information Asset (DIA) oracles to access cross-chain and off-chain data. DIA is an open-source blockchain oracles platform that provides market participants with secure and reliable data. DIA aggregates information from both centralized finance (CeFi) and DeFi platforms. DIA users can get seamless access to essential data such as digital asset prices, lending rates, lending states and FX rates. 

As per the announcement, the current data sets on DIA will be available on Elrond after the integration. This new integration will accelerate DeFi growth on Elrond and increase demand for eGLD as an underlying asset.

Mincu added:

DeFi and CeFi solutions depend on trustworthy data to reliably automate their processes and increase efficiency. We’re excited to complement the Elrond high throughput and inexpensive mainnet with the rich data sets provided by the DIA crowd-sourced oracle platforms.
