Contest theme: Blockchain Oracles


The interaction between the real world and blockchains is necessary; because in that way blockchains can develop their power. Blockchain Oracles are one of the tools that blockchains use, to be able to interact with the physical world.

Blockchain Oracles are the medium that communicates the cryptographic world with the physical world, so blockchains can develop all the potential they have to offer to people.

When Smart Contracts require information to execute an order, that is where oracles come in, giving the information required for a certain order to be executed. An oracle's main function is to nourish the blockchain with the necessary information.

There are different types of Oracles Blockchains, centralized Oracles, and decentralized Oracles.
