Oracles are a rising phenomenon in the current blockchain world given the increasing interest in the DeFi applications. No wonder, the competition is sky-high for the emerging oracles of late. But, if an oracle manages to get its IEO sold out in just a few hours of the launch, it certainly speaks of its colossal potential. We are talking about the recently introduced Bridge oracle IEO here which managed to raise a whopping $8 million in no more than 6 hours. 

Overview of Bridge oracle

Bridge oracle is a decentralized public blockchain oracle which had its IEO on 15^th September, 2020, on BW.com. The oracle has been introduced to leading blockchain network TRON and it’s TRON’s first ever dedicated public oracle. 

As a decentralized oracle, Bridge oracle is designed to source real-world data from various public data sources for smart contracts so that they can contribute to real-world use cases in a more proactive way. TRON never had an oracle system before which had severely restricted the scope of operation of the smart contracts operating on the network. With the recent introduction of Bridge, TRON is looking forward to overcoming such limitations and creating more Dapps by the smart contracts.
