Struggling with sluggish dApps with limited features is not what æternity has been building its ecosystem for. On the contrary. What if your DeFi app could instantly react to live market changes, or your supply chain app could automatically update inventory in real-time? Acurast Oracles, integrated with æternity’s blockchain native oracles , provide the infrastructure you need to build smarter, faster, and more capable decentralized applications.
By leveraging Acurast’s active oracles, you can integrate real-time data feeds directly into your dApp. This means your application can react to events as they happen, whether you're working on DeFi, supply chain management, or any other data-driven project. The result? A more responsive, efficient dApp that scales effortlessly towards hundreds to millions of users, without the need for complex or costly infrastructure.
Explore the potential of combining æternity's state channels with Acurast's active oracle model. Together, they set the stage for future dApps capable of handling thousands of transactions per second, reducing operational costs in a real-world deployment.
Achieving great transaction speed
Skyrocketing speeds and plummeting costs are what your dApps need in order to achieve great results and widespread adoption. The combination of æternity infrastructure and Acurast oracles are redefining what's possible in terms of blockchain performance.
Lightning-fast transactions become reality through æternity's state channels. To see this tech in action, try out the demo game built to showcase the simplicity of this æternity feature.
Integrating real-time data
Real-time data feeds supercharge your applications via Acurast's active oracle model. What does this mean?
Unlike passive systems, active oracles trigger smart contract functions instantly. Imagine a supply chain dApp that updates inventory and orders automatically based on live sales data.
But that's just the beginning:
- Financial dApps - Get up-to-the-second asset prices for precise trading and risk management.
- IoT Applications - React immediately to sensor data, enabling smart houses/cities to optimize factors in real-time.
- Gaming - Create dynamic in-game economies that respond to player actions as they happen.
Compared to traditional passive oracles, which might update on a fixed schedule or require manual queries, Acurast's active oracles provide a level of responsiveness previously unattainable in blockchain applications.

This paradigm shift opens up new possibilities for creating truly reactive, efficient, and intelligent decentralized systems.
Reducing costs
Dramatic cost reductions stem from this powerful tech stack. Paired with Acurast's optimized oracle system, æternity's efficient architecture significantly cuts transaction fees.
Here's how the cost savings break down:
- Reduced on-chain transactions - æternity's state channels move most transactions off-chain, drastically reducing the number of costly on-chain operations.
- Optimized data feeds - Acurast's active oracle model minimizes unnecessary data updates, cutting down on frequent, expensive oracle calls.
- Efficient smart contract execution - æternity's virtual machine optimizations lower the computational cost of contract execution.
Your data-hungry applications can now operate at a fraction of their previous cost, opening new possibilities for complex dApps.
Cross-Chain functionality
Seamless cross-chain functionality expands your dApp's horizons. The æternity-Ethereum bridge, powered by Acurast's secure enclaves, facilitates easy asset and data transfer between ecosystems. Picture a DeFi app leveraging æternity's speed and inexpensive transactions while tapping Ethereum's vast liquidity and user-base.
