Pyth Price Feeds and Entropy Launch on Blast

Pyth Price Feeds and Pyth Entropy are now live on Blast, the first Ethereum Layer 2 blockchain to offer native yield for stablecoins and ether. This deployment follows the recent launch of Pyth oracles on Blast’s testnet environment earlier in January.

Smart contract developers on Blast can access and build with 400+ low-latency price feeds across cryptocurrencies, commodities, foreign exchange pairs, and even equities and exchange-traded funds. Pyth Price Feeds are now securing dozens of decentralized applications launching on mainnet on Blast.

Pyth’s oracle data became available on Blast immediately after its mainnet launch on February 29, 2024. This rapid deployment is a testament to the Pyth Network contributors’ dedication towards building an oracle solution that drives scalable multi-chain growth and sets a new industry standard for DeFi solutions.


Pyth Price Feeds on Blast

Pyth Price Feeds and Pyth Benchmarks are now spuporting the Blast's DeFi ecosystem. Blast developers will benefit from permissionless access to over 400 low-latency data feeds across major crypto and traditional asset classes. Pyth’s price data infrastructure can secure a wide range of smart contract applications ranging from perpetual trading to derivatives, lending to stablecoin protocols, and even Web2-style use cases like data analytics and business intelligence.

The Pyth oracle introduce a specialized pull oracle architecture which empowers smart contract applications to request or pull price updates from the Pythnet appchain only when needed. This design ensures that users have reliable access to the freshest price updates while benefitting from high-frequency and high-resolution prices.

Pyth Price Feeds also include confidence intervals, which are visualized as price bands around the real-time asset price. Confidence intervals provide insights into market volatility and divergences across different markets to help downstream protocols respond to unusual market events.
