Price Oracles
Deployed contracts
The main oracle contracts on Group 0 are deployed at the following addresses:
- Testnet: vKdWgyqtQZzAV7eoMXxQCkyiNtceViGZheXC1iHbKFDZ
- Mainnet: 285zrkZTPpUCpjKg9E3z238VmpUBQEAbESGsJT6yX7Rod
(New groups will be added in the near future).
How to access DIA oracles?
Locate one of the deployed contracts (either testnet or mainnet) and call the get-value function. This function expects one parameter, which is the symbols of the asset you want to retrieve and a “/USD”, so for example for the Bitcoin price the parameter must be “BTC/USD”.
This will return two values:
- The price of the asset, with 8 decimals.
- The timestamp of the last update in Unix time format, in UTC timezone.
Included price feeds
The Alephium oracle includes the following price feeds. Use the Query Symbol as a parameter in the get-value function to receive the latest price information for any of these assets.
| Asset | Query Symbol | Sources Overview |
|---|---|---|
| Bitcoin (BTC) | BTC/USD | BTC Sources |
| USD Coin (USDC) | USDC/USD | USDC Sources |
| Ether (ETH) | ETH/USD | ETH Sources |
| Wrapped Bitcoin (WBTC) | WBTC/USD | WBTC Sources |
| Tether USD (USDT) | USDT/USD | USDT Sources |
| Alephium (ALPH) | ALPH/USD | ALPH Sources |
| Ayin (AYIN) | AYIN/USD | AYIN Sources |

Oracle configuration settings
Methodology: VWAPIR
The final price point for each asset is calculated by computing the assets' trade information across multiple DEXs and CEXs. This is done using a Volume Weighted Average Price with Interquartile Range (VWAPIR) methodology.
Update frequency: 0.5% deviation + 1-hour heartbeat
Each asset is updated every two minutes if the new price deviates from the old one by more than 0.5%. Additionally, a heartbeat of 1 hour is applied, which means that each price is updated at least once per day even if it moves by less than 0.5%.
