Consensus and Oracle

Nebula’s Advanced Consensus and Oracle Systems

At the core of Nebula’s architecture is its CometBFT consensus mechanism, a Byzantine Fault Tolerant (BFT) protocol that ensures high throughput and rapid transaction finality. This mechanism is reinforced by strict slashing conditions that penalize malicious validators, ensuring the integrity and security of the protocol.

In parallel, Nebula utilizes a validator-based oracle network that aggregates data from multiple sources using threshold cryptography. This decentralized oracle system delivers secure and tamper-resistant price feeds, leveraging advanced cryptographic techniques such as Merkle Trees and threshold signatures. This ensures that all data input into smart contracts is both accurate and verifiable, providing a reliable foundation for secure DeFi operations.
