Overview
Chronicle Protocol (Chronicle Oracles) is a decentralized oracle network on Ethereum that provides price feeds for DeFi applications. It was originally built for MakerDAO to secure the DAI stablecoin and later opened to other protocols. The system uses a permissioned set of validators and Schnorr signatures to minimize on-chain costs while maintaining integrity.
Within the DeFi Intel graph, Chronicle Protocol connects to 5 tracked entities, most strongly to Ethereum, MakerDAO, Chronicle Labs.
