DIA launches Lasernet on Testnet; The world's first layer 2 rollup specifically built for Oracle Infrastructure. It combines trustless execution and permissionless access.
DIA is built in collaboration with the most innovative teams scaling Ethereum: Optimsm’s OP Stack (rollup framework), Conduit (rollup deployment), Hyperlane (interoperability protocol) and Celestia (Data Availability Layer).
Legacy Oracle models are limited in capabilities due to their reliance on external data providers: small support of data feeds, permissioned access, and transparent data processing.
News models like DIA have reimagined oracle infrastructure to address these challenges and future-proof oracles.
This is DIA’s vision:
DIA’s Lumina is a completely redesigned Oracle infrastructure built to operate as an open and permissionless network. This network allows it to gather data from any source and deliver it to any destination chain.
It consists of three main components: (data) Feeders, Lasernet (an L2 network), and a message-passing layer. The combination of these allows it to achieve completely decentralized and modular oracles to meet any data needs for dApps.
The core features of DIA Oracles embodies:
Permissionlessness – for data access but also data sourcing.
Trustless processing – via immutable, aggregator oracle smart contracts.
Distributed data sourcing – via a decentralized network of nodes that source and publish data on-chain, to the DIA Lasernet.
Notable Details on DIA Oracle:
Testnet is now live on Ethereum Sepolia.
Push and Pull Oracle models are available to test
Lasernet Mainnet is expected to launch in Q1 2025.
