Deep Dive
1. Modular Oracle Architecture
RedStone uses a pull-based model to deliver off-chain data on-demand, reducing gas costs while supporting 130+ clients like Morpho and Pendle. Its modular design allows tailored data feeds (e.g., LSTs, Proof-of-Reserves) and seamless deployment across chains like Solana, Base, and Bitcoin layers.
Unlike traditional oracles, RedStone sources prices from both CEXs and DEXs, enhancing accuracy for assets like yield-bearing collateral. This flexibility lets protocols choose push/pull models or ultra-low-latency feeds.
2. Tokenomics & Security
RED’s 1B max supply includes staking rewards for validators and data providers, with 72% initially locked. Stakers earn fees in ETH, BTC, or USDC while securing the network via EigenLayer’s Actively Validated Services (AVS), tapping into $14B+ in pooled security.
The token also governs protocol upgrades, aligning incentives among data providers, developers, and institutional users.
3. RWA & Institutional Adoption
RedStone dominates RWA oracles, securing tokenized assets for Securitize (BlackRock’s partner) and private credit platforms like Maple Finance. Its acquisition of Credora added real-time risk ratings, bridging TradFi standards with DeFi transparency.
In Hyperliquid’s ecosystem, RedStone powers 70% of price feeds, enabling derivatives and lending markets.
Conclusion
RedStone is a foundational layer for cross-chain data reliability, combining modular design, staking economics, and TradFi integration. As blockchain adoption grows, can its infrastructure scale to meet demand for trillions in tokenized assets?
