Ontology Oracle

ontology oracle

Blockchain Oracle is designed to solve the problem that smartcontract can't interact with outside world. Now more and more dapps depend on outside world trigger: for example:

One flight will arrive at 10:00 am, if the flight delays, insurance smartcontract will be triggered, all applicants should get 100 token for compensation.

Now dapps need more and more outside world data, like flight information, stoke price, weather information, match result...

Ontology oracle is exactly the role of data transporter, makes it possible for smartcontract to get outside world data.
