2021-01-07 13:31:01 CoinGecko, one of the earliest and leading crypto data aggregators, has partnered with Band Protocol to provide highly accurate price feeds for up to 6,000 crypto assets from over 400 exchanges to the Band Standard Dataset for #DeFi developers and over 20+ integrators.

CoinGecko will be a critical partner in collaboration with the next iteration of BandChain Phase 2. This will empower data providers with even more flexibility to monetize and commercialize their solutions, earning a fee on a per-call basis or time-interval and collect revenue directly on-chain.

We look forward to having the support of CoinGecko on the development of Band Protocol and receive critical feedback to create a solution that will enable the strong majority of data on the open internet to be queried reliably through the BandChain decentralized oracle network.

2020-12-24 13:10:14 Band Protocol is proud to help Injective achieve a major milestone by expanding support into traditional equity markets.
$BAND has been integrated to deliver low-latency and truly decentralized price oracles for various stocks that update every 15 seconds.

This integration brings a decentralized oracle to not only the stock derivatives product but also wider developers looking to build on Injective and access reliable external data sources or APIs.
Documentation is in the works and will be released early next year!

With the help of Band Protocol and Terra, we collectively confident in Injective’s ability to deliver an unparalleled trading experience for everyone worldwide.
We look forward to adding support for new stocks, indices, ETFs, and other derivatives in the coming months!

2020-12-22 17:04:30 Moonbeam,the Ethereum-compatible smart contract platform on Polkadot, has completed the implementation of Band Protocol to bring decentralized and scalable cross-chain oracles to developers building on the Moonbase Alpha Testnet.

The Moonbeam protocol is built and powered by Purestake, a leading provider in blockchain infrastructure and validator services. By supporting Solidity smart contracts and mirroring the Ethereum dev environment, it is simple and easy for developers to build on Polkadot.

The Moonbeam team has also created developer documentation and new tutorials for the Band Protocol integration, demonstrating how to leverage the new oracle system using Moonbase Alpha, Moonbeam’s TestNet.

Creating a foundation for Polkadot developers to integrate highly secure and reliable oracles is the collective goal of both Moonbeam and Band Protocol teams. We look forward to integrating with the various teams and projects expanding to the Polkadot ecosystem!

2020-12-21 13:10:05 Band Protocol is proud to announce the official launch of the $BAND Standard Dataset - an exhaustive reference price dataset with frequent updates and comprehensive, customizable feeds covering 100+ feeds for crypto assets, commodities and foreign exchange rates.

For developers who prioritize performance and scalability, Band Protocol, a decentralized oracle network, has become the long-term solution to secure hundreds of millions of dollars in value locked up in smart contracts as seen in just Mirror Protocol and Fantom alone.

The Standard Dataset contains price feeds are aggregated from a number of premium data sources, the list of which includes: Brave New Coin, Coingecko, CryptoCompare, Coinbase, Binance, Huobi Global, Kraken, Bitfinex, Bittrex, AlphaVantage, XE, OXR, and Fixer

Data will always be the cornerstone of #DeFi and wider blockchain applications. Through the Band Standard Dataset and constant growth in partnerships, we will continue to add even more enterprise-grade data providers and price support for any asset.

This serves as the largest and most frequently updated price oracle feed covering wide range of data points and data sources, curated on a network of 72 trusted and reliable $BAND validators.

2020-12-18 16:13:38 Band Protocol is proud to announce that our integration with @NervosNetwork, China’s leading public blockchain ecosystem, to bring reliable and secure third-party data to The Nervos CKB is complete!

Nervos developers are now fully empowered to access an expansive set of price feeds and other real-world data sources with custom aggregation and update parameters to reliably secure any category of decentralized application.

The Nervos team has also developed a web application to visualize the oracle bridge including price feeds which are live on the Mainnet.

Nervos will continue to work together with Band Protocol to drive adoption and set a standard for the usage of scalable and secure decentralized oracles. This collaboration effort begins with DeFi and then expand into other industry verticals such as insurance and games.

2020-12-14 18:26:24 Band Protocol is proud to join OpenAPI Initiative as the first blockchain firm alongside Google Cloud, IBM, eBay, Bloomberg and Microsoft among others, to connect blockchain applications to common Application Programming Interfaces (API) and streamline the exchange of data between smart contracts and off-chain data sources.

Band Protocol will be contributing heavily to the evolving OpenAPI Specification (OAS), enabling blockchain projects to query and connect seamlessly to a vendor-neutral and open-source API through decentralized oracle technology such as the BandChain decentralized oracle network.

By working with closely world-leading enterprises on the Open API Initiative, Band Protocol is enabling smart contracts to reliably and securely interact with traditional centralized technology and APIs and with each other.

Together, we are bringing interoperability between smart contracts and traditional enterprise services into reality.

2020-12-10 17:29:21 Fantom, the team advised by Andre Cronje, has launched liquid staking and synthetic assets in partnership with Band Protocol. $BAND oracles are securing 16 assets upon launch, later expanding up to 176 synthetic assets.

Leveraging a fast, scalable and secure layer-1 platform, Fantom Finance combined with the matched scalability and security from Band Protocol creates a decentralized trading experience unlike any other. Trades are confirmed in a few seconds with low fees ($0.000001).

$BAND scalable oracle technology is used to derive accurate and real-time information for all assets synthesized on Liquid Staking.

Supported assets at launch include FTM, fUSD, fGBP, fCNY, fEUR, fKRW, fJPY, fCHF, fBTC, fETH, fLINK, fBAND, fBNB, fGold, fSilver and fWTI.

Fantom will continue to work closely with Band Protocol as they expand their offering to 176 unique synthetic assets while onboarding additional enterprise-grade data providers to maximize the degree of security and redundancy for end-users.

Congratulations to our partners at Fantom on achieving this key milestone!

Users can access Liquid Staking and Fantom Finance using the Fantom wallet at: https://pwawallet.fantom.network/.

2020-12-08 13:08:45 Mirror Protocol, a #DeFi protocol enabling synthetic assets that provide exposure to real-world assets, has partnered with Band Protocol and successfully integrated Band price feeds to secure $54M+ TVL in blue-chip stocks, commodities and ETFs.

Mirror is designed to expand global accessibility to foreign markets - using liquidity pools for each asset and scalable, real-time decentralized oracles provided by Band Protocol, orders can be executed as fast as the blocktime of the network on Terra or Ethereum.

$BAND is providing real-time price feeds for an array of initial Mirrored Assets based on popularity, provision of long and short positions, and coverage. The feeds are live on the BandChain decentralized oracle network, updating every 15 seconds to reflect spot prices.

Band Protocol is thrilled to work with @Terra_money to be one of the first to market in bringing 24 hour trading to synthetics of stocks, ETFs and more.

With security and usability as the top priority, both teams will continue to create and improve Mirror Protocol.
