Oracles are a fundamental conduit for moving data from the real world into the Ethereum blockchain. Without great real world data Ethereum would lose much of its utility. I talk to Thomas Bertani, who is building a provably honest centralised oracle service for Ethereum. This design really caught my eye as it combines the cheapness of a centralised oracle with excellent security guarantees that we have grown to love about decentralised technologies. The conversation covered themes such as: What is a provably honest oracle? How is Oraclize provably honest? What is TLS Notary technology? Current state and applications of Oraclize. Check out the video for understanding a really cool and potentially transformative oracle design.
