Creating Definitive Truth
summary
Chainlink claims to deliver Definitive Truth for off‑chain events, cites over $10 trillion in enabled transaction value, and announces the DECO acquisition to prove HTTPS/TLS data came from a specific TLS session at a specific time using zero‑knowledge proofs. DECO keeps enterprise and premium market data confidential while allowing oracle nodes to verify collateral solvency, AML/KYC status, and high‑frequency price feeds without publishing raw data on chain. A funded research program and Ari Juels joining as chief scientist begin productizing these guarantees.
