Long Tail Asset Oracles for DeFi Collateral
Long Tail Asset Oracles for DeFi Collateral
🤔 Weird Collateral in DeFi

Using unique collateral in DeFi presents significant challenges but remains achievable. Tellor explores solutions for bringing non-standard assets on-chain as collateral through their oracle protocol. The system allows for verification of various data types including:
- Custom price specifications (TWAP/VWAP)
- Random number generation
- Snapshot vote results
- Any verifiable custom data
Key Challenge: Balancing collateral flexibility with security and reliability in DeFi lending.
