Overview
Pyth Network is a first-party oracle network that delivers high-frequency, institutional-grade market data to blockchain applications. Unlike traditional oracles that aggregate data from third-party sources, Pyth sources its data directly from major institutional market participants including exchanges, trading firms, and market makers such as Jane Street, CBOE, Binance, and Two Sigma. This first-party data model delivers sub-second price updates with higher accuracy and lower latency than competing oracle solutions. Pyth serves over 350 protocols across 65+ blockchains, providing the price infrastructure that DeFi lending, derivatives, and trading platforms depend on for accurate settlement and risk management.

Why This Is NeoFi
Pyth is critical NeoFi infrastructure: its oracle feeds operate on-chain across 65+ blockchains, it provides real-world financial utility by delivering institutional market data that underpins hundreds of billions in DeFi value, and its first-party data from Jane Street, CBOE, and others represents the institutional-grade standard for on-chain pricing.

- On-Chain Execution: All operations and settlement occur transparently on blockchain, ensuring full auditability and programmability.
