Imagine this: what if the underlying data sources for your DeFi transactions, your NFT investments, and even every operation executed by future AI robots are falsified?



This is not just a wild thought. One night in 2021, several engineers suddenly realized a terrifying fact—the oracle (the channel through which blockchain obtains external information) itself could be rigged, making the smart contract's claim of "immutability"

Bro, this oracle thing should have been dealt with a long time ago, or else we're just playing a game with fake data.

Damn, the idea of oracles being manipulated is really brilliant... It feels like the entire DeFi system is built on sand.

Oracle fraud... Someone should have spoken openly about this a long time ago. Truly, decentralization can't save projects with rotten data sources.

Oracles, to put it simply, are the Achilles' heel of the entire ecosystem. Don't really think that on-chain data is absolutely secure; ultimately, it's a matter of the information source. Hmm, recalling those sniped transactions, there's a high chance that this kind of issue is behind them.

When the oracle has an issue, the so-called immutability becomes a joke.
