Sequoia-backed, cross-chain data oracle platform, Band Protocol, today announced it has integrated with South Korea’s largest blockchain network, ICON, highlighting the expansion of real-world applications for secure and scalable data oracles.
Band Protocol and ICON will work together to support ICON’s network of Decentralized Applications (dApps) by providing secure and verified data to the ICON platform using data oracles.
“We are excited to be integrating with ICON and expanding the use of data oracles in South Korea where the blockchain industry is very developed and welcomed by authorities,” said Soravis Srinawakoon, CEO & Co-founder of Band Protocol.
“The strategic partnership and integration with Band Protocol to the ICON Network will bring increased security and scalability to all the decentralized applications built on South Korea’s largest blockchain project. Band Protocol’s oracle will simultaneously strengthen the existing network and allow expansion to new real-world uses,” said Min Kim, Founder of ICON Network.
This relationship will also connect Band Protocol to ICON’s network of established banks, telecommunications companies, and South Korean government agencies — greatly expanding the use cases for data oracles.
ICON works by connecting data to smart contracts executed across its network of blockchains
without the use of intermediaries — eliminating the need for vast paperwork or communication between multiple stakeholders. Band Protocol’s oracle will enable expansive use of smart contracts on ICON, which are utilized by many top enterprises in South Korea.
Band Protocol will support many dApps built on the ICON platform including DeFi, sports, and random number generation, among others.
The absence of central authorities overseeing these smart contracts means the data verified by Band Protocol’s oracles is vital to ensure contracts are executed correctly.
