Oracle Latency measures the time delay between an external data event occurring in the real world and that information being made available and verifiable on a blockchain by an oracle service. A lower latency value signifies faster and more responsive data delivery to smart contracts. It is a critical performance indicator.
Context
Oracle latency is a crucial performance metric for decentralized applications, particularly those requiring real-time data for operations like high-frequency DeFi trading or dynamic lending protocols. Reducing this delay is a constant objective for oracle providers aiming to enhance the responsiveness and reliability of smart contracts. News often reports on innovations that aim to minimize this delay for critical applications.
The native integration of Chainlink Data Streams into the MegaETH execution layer establishes a new primitive for sub-millisecond data, structurally enabling centralized exchange-grade responsiveness for decentralized derivatives.
