Truth by Default, Verified by Economics.
Decentralized data feeds with economic guarantees.
$OPTIM
coming soon on four.memeTraditional oracle solutions face three fundamental challenges: the Oracle Trilemma of security, speed, and cost. Most protocols force you to choose two out of three. Optimistic Oracle breaks this paradigm.
Sub-second finality on BNB enables real-time data verification. No waiting for consensus from multiple validators.
BNB's low transaction costs (fraction of a cent) make oracle queries economically viable at any scale.
Economic incentives backed by bonding ensure data integrity. Challenge periods add additional security.
Not limited to prediction markets. Supports DeFi pricing, event verification, IoT data, and other real-world needs.
Transparent and fair challenge mechanism with economic penalties for malicious actors.
Built for Web3 scale. Handles millions of requests without compromising performance.
Optimistic Oracle vs UMA Protocol (used by Polymarket)
| Aspect | UMA Protocol (Ethereum) | Optimistic Oracle (BNB) | 
|---|---|---|
| Transaction Speed | ~15 seconds per block | ✓ 3s finality | 
| Transaction Cost | $5–$50 per request (gas fees) | ✓ $0.001 per request | 
| Throughput | ~15 TPS (limited by Ethereum) | ✓ 2,000 TPS theoretical | 
| Challenge Period | Typically 2–3 hours minimum | ✓ Configurable: 1 minute to hours | 
| Dispute Resolution | DVM (Data Verification Mechanism) | ✓ Decentralized resolver network | 
| Token Integration | UMA token for governance | ✓ OPTIM for governance + staking | 
| Developer Experience | Solidity, EVM tooling | ✓ Solidity, EVM compatible | 
| Network Effects | Strong Ethereum ecosystem | ✓ Growing BNB DeFi ecosystem | 
Why faster than UMA? We use BNB's fast finality + optimistic approach. UMA runs on Ethereum with multi-hour dispute windows.
Optimistic Oracle is architected as a modular protocol with three core layers:
Smart contracts create data requests with parameters including:
Data providers (proposers) submit answers by:
If a proposal is challenged:
A general-purpose oracle protocol supporting diverse use case
Create decentralized prediction markets for sports, elections, and market events with provably fair resolution.
Automate insurance claims and payouts based on verified real-world events and parametric triggers.
Power lending, derivatives, and synthetic assets with reliable price feeds and market data at 100x lower cost.
Integrate real-world events into on-chain games and dynamic NFTs that respond to verified external data.
Enable real-time tracking of goods, sensors, and logistics using on-chain verified IoT data and event triggers.
Provide reliable on-chain data for DAO proposals, voting outcomes, and treasury transparency to strengthen decentralized governance.
