Hello everyone! I have been wandering around the world of encryption recently and have been fascinated by the field of oracle machines - they are like "intelligence agents" of blockchain, helping DeFi projects capture external data in real time. I really want to talk about Switchboard, as a rising star, it's really slow: the latency can be as low as sub-100ms, and even sub-10ms in some scenarios, several times faster than the big brother Pyth (latency of about 1.2 seconds)! Imagine how this time difference can save lives in high-frequency trading or lending agreements! As someone who frequently trades contracts all year round, this really hits a pain point - when I used a certain oracle to do cross chain arbitrage before, I missed the best closing opportunity due to a delay of about 1 second, and managed to make a lot less profit. The sub-10ms latency of Switchboard is equivalent to installing an "accelerator" for high-frequency strategies, especially in the volatile cryptocurrency market, being one step ahead means an additional layer of profit guarantee. Now, it has silently served over 50 top projects, such as Jito, Drift, and Kamino, guarding an on chain value of nearly $1 billion. Moreover, its design is super open: anyone can customize data pricing for Web2 or Web3 assets without asking their grandparents, and it also supports multi chain interoperability. I think this openness is the key to breaking industry monopolies - although Chainlink's ecosystem is mature, the threshold and cost of custom pricing are not friendly to small and medium-sized developers, while Switchboard allows ordinary people to participate in data ecosystem construction, which will attract more innovative teams to join, such as derivative agreements for niche assets and personalized hedging tools. There is a high probability that a new batch of gameplay will emerge in the future. I personally think that this is not only a technological upgrade, but also can stimulate a wave of new gameplay, such as more complex cross chain derivatives. SWTCH token quietly launched Solana DEX and several major CEX on September 9th last year, with a market value of only over 6 million US dollars. Compared to its potential, it feels like it has picked up a big bargain. The entire oracle market is boiling with excitement, with Chainlink still dominating the market, but new players are emerging constantly. Who do you think can catch up from behind? Come and talk about your opinions. Welcome to roast or add!
