A moment later the paramedics rush in and I let go, standing up and backing away in some ineffectual hope that they’ll be able to do something I didn’t.

I see Fury move from the corner of my eye, “Agent Coulson is down.” I turn to look at him. He’s touching his earpiece.

A moment passes before he responds, “They’re here.”

The Director lets go of the earpiece as one of the paramedics turns to Fury and shakes his head. Fury opens the line again, “They called it.”

Why now? We are in the midst of an intergalactic sibling rivalry turned colonization and now we’ve lost the best person we’ve got.

I noticed a parametric handing something to the Director. After receiving the parcel Fury started walking away and called for Tony, the Captain, and Natasha to join him when they were done. I followed a few paces behind him.

When I walked onto the bridge, I saw how far into disarray it had fallen. Passing figures assessed damage,  some agents worked on fixing their respective computers while others were still being attended to, the only one I knew standing out to me - Hill.

She sat on one of the sidebars of the Director’s command station, her head hung low. She looked up, and our eyes locked. I expected her to be sad or mournful, perhaps, but all I saw was rage.

I don’t know what I expected to see. She probably knows what I am, what I can do. She probably knows what I didn’t do. 

It’s pathetic. In that moment all I could do was sit down and wait for the others to come back. Only two return.

When Tony and Steve walk in, the strain in their shoulders evident, they both look stunned. I wonder why for a moment before realizing they’re looking at me, I look at my hands and see Coulson’s drying blood cling to my skin and clothes. I should have washed up and found a change of clothes; although, I suppose there’s no time for that now.

I hear them both sit down, the table remains still, “Hey-“ I turn to the Captain as the Director walks in. Fury saunters over to where Steve sits, “These were in Phil Coulson’s jacket. Guess he never did get you to sign them.” The Director tosses what seems to be some bloody cards in front of Steve.

It takes all of my remaining energy to hold a straight face as I see the same fresh blood that covers my torso ebb onto the pristine glass table. I silently prayed that the pit forming in my stomach wasn’t noticeable.

“We’re dead in the air up here.” My attention swung to the Director, his voice sounding genuine, resourceful even, “Our communications, location of the cube, Banner, Thor. I got nothing for you. Lost my one god eye. Maybe I had it coming.” a moment of silence passes before he continues, “Yes, we were going to build an arsenal with the Tesseract. I never put all my chips on that number though,” what? “because I was playing something even riskier. There was an idea, Stark knows this,” I turn to my boss, wholly shocked by this development, “it was called “The Avengers Initiative’. The idea was to bring together a group of remarkable people, see if they could become something more. See if they could work together when we needed them to, to fight the battles that we never could. Phil Coulson died still believing in that idea… in heroes.” I watch Tony get up and walk out of the bridge.

“Well, it's an old-fashioned notion” Fury says as he walks towards the command station.

“Hey, are you okay?” Steve asks, “You’re um-“

“Covered in blood?” My voice sounded more… stale than I had expected, “Yeah, I didn’t remember where my room was and I didn’t feel like getting lost again, so…”

He stood up, “Well, your room is on my way,” he extended a hand, “why don’t I show you there?”

"That sounds great, thank you. I’ll have to pass on your hand though, don’t want to get all this,” motioning to my torso with hands, “on you. I hear blood is rather difficult to wash out of white leather.”

“Okay.” He tilted his head to the main exit before walking that way. I got up from the chair, half sprinting to meet his pace.

The long walk through the halls was met with a painful silence. Both of us obviously wanted to fill the silence but instead backed out at the last moment.

“Um- D-did you know him long?” The Captain barely choked out.

"Hm…?”

"Phil, that is.”

"OH, um… a little over a year. I was brought in to S.H.I.E.L.D. for a… commission, of sorts. I guess it was important enough to have him as my supervising agent.”

He stopped, “Wait, you’ve worked for S.H.I.E.L.D. before?”

“Yeah, just once. I’m not entirely sure I can talk about it though.”

"No worries. I was just shocked to find out they’d managed to strong-arm you into working for them.”

“And what’s that supposed to mean?”

“Oh, nothing. Just that you manage to  out-speak a supposed ‘once in a 

generation’ type of genius hourly, and seem to hate S.H.I.E.L.D. as much as Mr.Stark.”

“You’re not wrong. And don’t call Tony, ‘Mr. Stark’, please. He hates it, and I actually have to deal with him.” At that, he laughed, a real, hearty laugh that had his face lighting up in a way that made me understand Achilles’ reaction to Penthesiliea. 

When his bout of laughter cleared he looked me in the eye for a moment before looking away, a hint of blush brushed across his cheek and neck. He cleared his throat, “You’re room is right up here, the showers should be down the hall.”

I shuffled through my pocket for the key to the room as I walked to the door, unlocking the door I turned back to Steve, “Thank you.”

“Don’t thank me, I haven’t done anything worthy of such praise yet.”

"Sure, whatever you say.” Remembering the blood on my hands cut deep into our warming conversation, “I need to clean up now, but yeah, thank you.”

"Anytime. As soon as someone tells me, I’ll let you know when we land.”

"That would be nice, thank you, again." I opened the door and walked into the room, flicking the lights on as I closed myself off from the rest of the ship.

@sabakos I'm not arriving at a position and constructing an argument! Consider that post of mine that you reblogged a couple days ago! I long ago arrived at my values or aims, and I am attempting to construct (concrete examples or parametrized families of) systems which (have the potential to) achieve them! This is not a debate or a polemical endeavor, it is an engineering project. You decide you need a bridge, and then you go "how do we make a bridge within the constraint of budget, safety regulations, etc. etc." Maybe it ends up being the case that you just can't make the bridge, but you definitely don't decide that at the outset.

You're coming at this from a very natural perspective given the way politics is presented to us, I think, but to me it's a totally backwards one.

The Importance of Oracles in DeFi: How They Enable Smart Contracts

 In the rapidly evolving world of decentralized finance (DeFi), oracles serve as crucial infrastructure components that bridge the gap between blockchain networks and real-world data. These specialized tools enable smart contracts to access external information, making them truly functional in practical financial applications. This article explores why oracles are indispensable to DeFi development and how they power the ecosystem's most innovative applications.

What Are Blockchain Oracles?

Blockchain oracles are third-party services that provide smart contracts with external information. They act as bridges between blockchains and the outside world, delivering real-time data that would otherwise be inaccessible to smart contracts.

Smart contracts, by design, operate in isolated environments. While this isolation ensures security and deterministic execution, it also creates what's known as the "oracle problem"—the inability to access external data that's often essential for contract execution. Oracles solve this fundamental challenge.

Why Oracles Are Essential for DeFi Development

1. Enabling Price-Dependent Contracts

The most common use of oracles in DeFi is providing price data for various assets. This functionality is critical for:

Lending protocols that need accurate collateral valuations

Derivative platforms requiring precise underlying asset prices

Decentralized exchanges that rely on external price references for fair trading

Without reliable price oracles, these DeFi applications couldn't function securely or efficiently. For example, a lending platform needs to know when a user's collateral falls below the required threshold to trigger liquidation, which is impossible without external price data.

2. Facilitating Cross-Chain Interoperability

As DeFi expands across multiple blockchains, oracles play a vital role in facilitating cross-chain communication and transactions. They enable:

Asset bridges between different blockchains

Cross-chain lending and borrowing

Multi-chain yield optimization

These interoperability features help overcome the fragmentation in the DeFi ecosystem, creating a more unified and accessible financial system.

3. Providing Real-World Data

Beyond cryptocurrency prices, DeFi applications increasingly require access to real-world data:

Insurance protocols need weather data, flight information, or other real-world events

Synthetic assets require underlying asset prices and metrics

Prediction markets depend on verifiable outcomes for resolution

As DeFi continues to evolve beyond purely crypto-native applications, the demand for diverse, real-world data sources will only increase, making oracles even more essential to DeFi development.

Types of Oracle Solutions in DeFi

Centralized Oracles

Centralized oracles provide data from a single source. While they offer simplicity and speed, they introduce a single point of failure and require users to trust the oracle provider, which contradicts the trustless ethos of DeFi.

Decentralized Oracles

Decentralized oracle networks like Chainlink, Band Protocol, and API3 aggregate data from multiple sources and providers, ensuring greater reliability and resistance to manipulation. They typically employ:

Multiple data sources to eliminate dependency on a single feed

Decentralized node operators who provide and validate data

Economic incentives to ensure honest reporting

Reputation systems to track reliability of data providers

Specialized Oracles

As the DeFi ecosystem matures, specialized oracles are emerging for specific use cases:

Price oracles specifically optimized for cryptocurrency and asset pricing

Sports oracles for betting and prediction markets

Weather oracles for parametric insurance products

Computation oracles for complex off-chain calculations

Oracle Security Challenges in DeFi

While oracles are essential for DeFi development, they also introduce potential vulnerabilities:

Price Manipulation Attacks

DeFi's history includes several high-profile exploits where attackers manipulated the price feeds that oracles relied on. These attacks often target:

Flash loan vulnerabilities in lending protocols

Thinly traded markets where prices can be more easily influenced

Single-source oracles without adequate verification mechanisms

To mitigate these risks, developers increasingly use time-weighted average prices (TWAPs) and multiple data sources to protect against short-term price manipulation.

Data Quality and Reliability

The quality of data provided by oracles directly impacts the security and functionality of DeFi applications. Key considerations include:

Data accuracy and timeliness

Update frequency appropriate for the application

Resistance to downtime and technical failures

Transparency about data sources and methodologies

Best Practices for Using Oracles in DeFi Development

1. Use Decentralized Oracle Networks

Wherever possible, DeFi developers should leverage decentralized oracle networks rather than centralized data providers. This approach reduces single points of failure and aligns with the decentralized ethos of the ecosystem.

2. Implement Circuit Breakers

Smart contracts should include circuit breakers or emergency pause mechanisms that trigger when oracle data appears suspicious or shows extreme volatility. These safeguards can prevent catastrophic losses during oracle failures or attacks.

3. Consider Oracle Diversification

Relying on multiple oracle services for critical data points offers protection against the failure of any single provider. This redundancy adds security through diversity.

4. Perform Thorough Testing

Before deploying oracle-dependent contracts to production, developers should conduct extensive testing with historical data to verify proper functioning under various market conditions.

The Future of Oracles in DeFi

As DeFi continues to evolve, oracles will play an increasingly significant role in its development:

1. Real-World Asset Integration

The tokenization of real-world assets (RWAs) like real estate, commodities, and securities will require sophisticated oracle solutions to connect these traditional assets with blockchain systems.

2. Cross-Chain Oracle Standards

As DeFi spreads across multiple blockchains, standardized cross-chain oracle protocols will emerge to enable seamless data sharing between disparate networks.

3. Privacy-Preserving Oracles

To address growing privacy concerns, oracles will incorporate zero-knowledge proofs and other privacy-enhancing technologies that verify data without revealing sensitive information.

4. AI-Enhanced Data Validation

Machine learning algorithms will increasingly help validate and filter oracle data, identifying anomalies and improving reliability without human intervention.

Conclusion

Oracles are the unsung heroes of DeFi development, enabling smart contracts to interact with the external world and unlock the full potential of decentralized financial applications. As the DeFi ecosystem matures and expands into new territories, the importance of reliable, secure, and versatile oracle solutions will only grow.

By understanding the critical role oracles play in DeFi and implementing best practices for their use, developers can build more robust, functional, and innovative financial applications that truly deliver on the promise of a more open and accessible financial system.

Whether you're building a lending protocol, a decentralized exchange, or exploring novel DeFi applications, incorporating appropriate oracle solutions should be a fundamental consideration in your development process. The future of DeFi depends not just on innovative smart contracts, but on the reliable data bridges that connect them to the world they aim to transform.
