DIA Partners with Tokos to Power Oracle Infrastructure on Somnia Network
馃敭 Oracle upgrade incoming
DIA has partnered with Tokos, the second-largest protocol by TVL on Somnia Network, to provide oracle infrastructure for the lending platform.
Key Details:
- Tokos is migrating its core price feeds to DIA oracles
- Feeds cover BTC/USD, ETH/USD, USDC/USD, USDT/USD, and BOBA/USD
- Each feed is customizable with deviation thresholds, update intervals, and aggregation windows
- DIA oracles will underpin borrow, liquidation, and Health Factor calculations
Somnia processes over 1 million transactions per second with sub-second finality and sub-cent fees. As the network's DeFi ecosystem develops, oracle infrastructure becomes critical for protocol operations.

As part of this partnership, Tokos will transition its main data sources to DIA price feeds delivered through dedicated adaptor contracts on Somnia mainnet, covering key pairs including BTC/USD, ETH/USD, USDC/USD, USDT/USD, and BOBA/USD. Each feed is fully configurable: custom
DIA is partnering with @tokos_fi, the foundational lending protocol on @Somnia_Network. Tokos will be migrating its core price feeds to DIA oracles, strengthening the oracle layer that underpins every borrow, liquidation, and Health Factor calculation on the protocol. Here's
Somnia processes 1M+ transactions per second with sub-second finality and sub-cent fees. Tokos is already the second-largest protocol by TVL on the network. As Somnia's DeFi stack matures, reliable oracle infrastructure becomes the foundation everything else builds on. DIA is
IMF Highlights Critical Gap in Tokenized Finance Collateral Pricing
The **International Monetary Fund** has released a new note on tokenized finance, spotlighting a crucial challenge: **pricing collateral that lacks liquid market trading**. **The Core Problem:** - Traditional pricing methods fail for illiquid tokenized assets - Collateral valuation becomes uncertain without active markets - This gap poses risks for tokenized finance infrastructure **DIA's Solution:** DIA developed **Value** - a system that determines fundamental value directly from onchain contract states, bypassing the need for liquid markets.

馃敭 Oracle Failures: The Silent Protocol Killer
**Lending protocols face an existential threat from oracle miscalculations.** Oracles determine collateral values and trigger liquidations when positions become undercollateralized. A single pricing error creates two catastrophic scenarios: - Liquidating healthy positions destroys user trust - Failing to liquidate underwater positions creates bad debt **The stakes are absolute.** Health Factors rely on real-time oracle data to track position safety. When oracles fail, protocols fail. Some protocols are implementing dual-oracle designs as defense against price manipulation and liquidity issues, offering curators protection even in edge cases.
馃敭 Tokos Integrates DIA Oracles for Non-Custodial Lending on Somnia
**Tokos**, a non-custodial lending protocol built on Aave v3 infrastructure, has partnered with **DIA** to power its price oracle system on Somnia mainnet. **How it works:** - Users supply assets to earn yield - Borrowers create overcollateralized positions - DIA provides real-time price feeds for critical asset pairs **Technical implementation:** - Custom adaptor contracts deliver BTC/USD, ETH/USD, USDC/USD, USDT/USD, and BOBA/USD feeds - Fully configurable parameters including deviation thresholds and update intervals - Tailored to Tokos's specific risk requirements This follows DIA's recent integrations with Macro protocol on Base and GraphAI, expanding its oracle infrastructure across multiple chains and use cases.

Upshift Reaches $300M by Building Verification Infrastructure for Institutional Crypto Vaults
Aya Kantor's Upshift has grown to over $300 million by addressing a critical gap in institutional crypto adoption: **verification infrastructure for vault assets**. The platform operates on the principle that **self-reported Net Asset Value (NAV) is insufficient** as traditional finance moves into crypto vaults. Kantor emphasizes that risk cannot be outsourced, making independent verification non-negotiable. This approach reflects a broader industry shift toward meeting institutional standards. The development comes as vault infrastructure matures, with platforms like Steakhouse managing $1.7 billion across market cycles without bad debt. The focus on verification infrastructure highlights the growing professionalization of DeFi as it seeks to accommodate institutional capital flows.
