🎯 Pyth's Oracle Integrity Staking Milestone

**Kalshi**, the world's largest prediction market, has integrated **Pyth Pro** to power real-time settlement for commodity and energy markets. **Markets now supported:** - Gold - Silver - Oil - Natural Gas - Corn - Wheat The integration addresses a critical gap in prediction markets: traditional exchanges close, but commodity prices continue moving. Pyth Pro enables Kalshi to settle bets using prices that remain live 24/7, even when conventional markets are offline. This follows Polymarket's recent adoption of Pyth Pro for similar use cases, indicating growing demand for continuous price feeds in prediction markets.

Coinbase has introduced perpetual futures trading for gold and silver, utilizing Pyth Pro's oracle infrastructure for price feeds. **Key Details:** - Gold and silver perpetual futures now available on Coinbase - Powered by Pyth Pro oracle technology - Expands traditional commodity exposure in crypto markets This follows a pattern of precious metals integration in DeFi, with platinum and palladium previously launching on LeverageX in August 2025, also using Pyth's oracle services. The addition brings traditional commodity trading instruments to Coinbase's platform, allowing traders to gain exposure to precious metals through perpetual futures contracts.

**Pyth Network has announced a major infrastructure upgrade and economic model shift.** The oracle network is moving away from subsidy-based token emissions toward a revenue-driven approach. This transition involves sunsetting their previous network infrastructure in favor of new systems. **Key changes include:** - Economic model now based on actual protocol revenue instead of token emissions - PYTH Reserve converts protocol revenue into monthly open-market PYTH token purchases - Approximately 12 million PYTH tokens purchased to date through this mechanism - Revenue generated from multiple products: Pyth Pro, Core, Entropy, Express Relay, and the Data Marketplace The shift represents a move toward sustainable tokenomics backed by real business activity rather than inflationary emissions. Full details are available in [Pyth's official blog post](https://www.pyth.network/blog/pyth-s-next-chapter-infrastructure-upgrade-and-a-revenue-based-economic-model?utm_source=organic_social&utm_medium=x_post&utm_campaign=2604_post&utm_term=oissunset).

**Pyth Network has discontinued reward emissions for its Oracle Integrity Staking (OIS) program.** What's changing: - Reward emissions have ended (Y=0) - Most participants are expected to unstake from OIS What remains unchanged: - Stakers can still withdraw anytime with no lockup changes - Slashing mechanisms remain active for staked participants - Governance staking continues as a separate, unaffected program - Token holders can still participate in Pyth Network governance and decision-making The move marks a significant shift in the network's incentive structure while maintaining its core governance framework.
