We’re excited to announce that TribeOne — an AI-powered NFT and DeFi funding platform — has integrated Chainlink Price Feeds on the Polkadot mainnet. By integrating the industry-leading decentralized oracle network, TribeOne has access to high-quality, tamper-proof price feeds needed to provide users with accurate and reliable collateral calculations for NFT loans. This gives our users strong assurances that the highest quality price feeds in the space are referenced when they access NFT loans on our platform.

Our initial integration involves the use of the following Chainlink Price Feeds: BTC-USD, DAI-USD, ETH-USD, USDC-USD, USDT-USD, and HAKA-USD. We chose Chainlink as our go-to oracle solution because its infrastructure is seamless to integrate and time-tested in production. Chainlink already helps secure leading DeFi protocols responsible for tens of billions of dollars in smart contract value, maintaining robust security and high availability even amidst unexpected events, such as exchange downtime, flash crashes, and data manipulation attacks via flash loans.

TribeOne is a premium AI-powered NFT and DeFi funding platform, providing borrowing, lending, investing, and credit risk solutions backed by RAROC (risk-adjusted return on crypto). We provide the DeFi sphere with enormous benefits through our user-centric approach and high-quality products, removing traditional financial barriers for users.

In order to help secure pricing for our NFT loan process, we needed access to fresh asset prices that are supplied directly on-chain in a highly reliable manner. Fair market asset prices should reflect a volume-weighted average from all trading environments. Thus, we needed to make use of an oracle to fetch aggregated price data off-chain and deliver it on-chain to be consumed by our application.

After reviewing various oracle solutions, we integrated Chainlink Price Feeds because they provide a multitude of critical features such as:

  • High-Quality Data — Chainlink Price Feeds source data from numerous premium data aggregators, leading to price data that’s aggregated from hundreds of exchanges, weighted by volume, and cleaned of outliers and wash trading. Chainlink’s data aggregation model generates more precise global market prices that are inherently resistant to inaccuracies or manipulation of any single or small set of exchanges.
  • Secure Node Operators — Chainlink Price Feeds are secured by independent, security-reviewed, and Sybil-resistant oracle nodes run by leading blockchain DevOps teams, data providers, and traditional enterprises. Chainlink nodes have a strong track record of reliability, even during high gas prices and infrastructure outages.
  • Decentralized Network — Chainlink Price Feeds are decentralized at the data source, oracle node, and oracle network levels, generating strong protections against downtime and tampering by either the data provider or the oracle network.
  • Reputation System — Chainlink provides a robust reputation framework and set of on-chain monitoring tools that allow users to independently verify the historical and real-time performance of node operators and oracle networks.

“We’re excited to integrate Chainlink Price Feeds, the best-decentralized price data feeds available in the DeFi industry. We believe this will bring a new level of transparency and reliability to our platform and help assure users that they are accessing loans that are calculated with reference to data from the most secure infrastructure in the ecosystem.”
