Description
Band Protocol is a cross-chain data oracle platform that aggregates and connects real-world data and APIs to smart contracts. As blockchains cannot access trusted real-world information available outside their networks, Band Protocol enhances smart contract functionalities by granting them access to reliable data without any central authority or points of failure. The protocol's flexible oracle design allows developers to use any data including real-world events, sports, weather, random numbers and more. Developers can create custom-made oracles using WebAssembly to connect smart contracts with traditional web APIs within minutes. BandChain, the protocol's own blockchain, is designed to be compatible with all smart contract platforms and blockchain development frameworks, handling the tasks of pulling data from external sources, aggregating it, and packaging it into a format that is easy to use and cryptographically verified across multiple blockchains.
