Pyth Price Feeds Now Live on EON (Horizen)

As part of a greater collaboration with Horizen, we’re delighted to reveal that the Pyth Network low-latency pull oracle is now available on EON, a fully EVM-compatible smart contracting platform built by Horizen. The Pyth Network is also set to launch its ZEN/USD price feed, which will become available on EON and more than 30 other blockchains.

Horizen Labs has deployed and will operate its own price scheduler to regularly update prices on-chain. This deployment enables Horizen EON dApps to freely and seamlessly use the Pyth Price Feeds.

"Partnering with Pyth Network aligns with our mission to provide a secure and scalable ecosystem for decentralized applications," said Rob Viglione, Co-Founder of Horizen and CEO of Horizen Labs. "By leveraging Pyth Network's specialized oracle solution, we can enhance EON's capabilities and offer developers the trusted market data they need to build innovative solutions for DeFi protocols."

“We’re excited to see the Pyth oracle and its 350 Price Feeds going live on Horizen EON — over the past year, zk solutions have been steadily growing in adoption and enabling DeFi to happen there is of first order,” said Marc Tillement, Director, Pyth Data Association. “As the leading oracle network on various Ethereum L2s and zk-chains, we look forward to seeing EON developers grasp the opportunity to be #PoweredByPyth and build the future of finance on-chain.”

Pyth Network on EON

The Pyth Network introduced an innovative low-latency pull oracle design, where users are empowered to “pull” price updates on-chain when needed, enabling everyone in that blockchain environment to access that data point. Developers on EON have permissionless access to any of Pyth’s 350+ price feeds for equities, ETFs, commodities, foreign exchange pairs, and cryptocurrencies.

However, to facilitate and further bootstrap its growing ecosystem, Horizen Labs has deployed and now operates its own price scheduler! This deployment enables any dApps building on Horizen’s EON to freely and seamlessly use the Pyth Price Feeds.
