Introduction

We are excited to announce the integration of Band Protocol with Berachain to provide a secure and decentralized Oracle. This will ensure that inter-chain and real-world data flow for decentralized finance (DeFi) and decentralized applications (dApps) is seamless and trustworthy.

Band Oracle empowers builders on Berachain to access off-chain data with speed, security, and accuracy—an essential aspect for decentralized finance, NFTs, and other cutting-edge applications.

In this article, we will explore the integration of Band Price Oracle with Berachain's bArtio Testnet, examining the synergy between Band Protocol and Berachain, the high-level technical architecture of this integration, how Band Protocol enhances the security and functionality of Berachain, and the future milestones that will shape this collaboration.

A Shared Vision of Band Protocol and Berachain

Berachain represents a unique blend of humor and innovation, originating from meme culture but rapidly evolving into a serious player in the blockchain space. Its focus on DeFi and NFTs within an EVM-compatible Layer 1 blockchain, paired with its novel “Tri-Token” system, offers an ecosystem where governance, staking, and stablecoins can thrive. These features make it an attractive destination for developers and users alike.

Band Protocol and Berachain share a common vision of empowering decentralized ecosystems. Both focus on providing secure, scalable solutions—Berachain through its innovative DeFi and NFT platform and Band Protocol through its reliable Oracle services. Our mission aligns with supporting developers to build secure and decentralized applications, ensuring that decentralized projects thrive in both infrastructure and data.

Band Price Oracle Integration on Berachain bArtio Testnet

Band Protocol integrates with Berachain’s bArtio Testnet, a crucial step before the mainnet launch. This integration enables developers to access real-time and reliable price feeds for key assets like BTC, ETH, USDC, and USDT through Band Chain. The process for retrieving these DeFi-related price pairs is illustrated in the flow chart below:

Band Price Oracle Integration on Berachain bArtio Testnet

Through this integration, Berachain projects can:

  • Access verified price feeds for various token pairs.
  • Build DeFi protocols, such as lending platforms, synthetic assets, and decentralized exchanges, using reliable data.
  • Ensure security and integrity with Band's proven VRF (Verifiable Random Function) to further strengthen randomness in gaming and NFTs.
💡
Band Price Oracle will further underscore how the Berachain is being equipped with a reliable Oracle to ensure smooth data flow for the projects building atop its ecosystem.

Leveraging Band Protocol’s Price Feeds on Berachain:

solidity
Copy code
import interfaces/IStdReference.sol;

contract DemoBulk {
    IStdReference public ref;

    constructor(IStdReference _ref) public {
        ref = _ref;
    }

    function demo_bulk() external view returns (IStdReference.ReferenceData[] memory) {
        return ref.getReferenceDataBulk(["BTC", "ETH"], ["USD", "BTC"]);
    }
}

Example Solidity Contract: Query prices for BTC/USD and ETH/BTC
