Oracle

Oracles are essential infrastructure components that feed real-time, off-chain data (such as price feeds, weather, or sports results) into blockchain smart contracts. Without decentralized oracles like Chainlink and Pyth, DeFi could not function. In 2026, oracles have evolved to support verifiable randomness and cross-chain data synchronization. This tag covers the technical evolution of data availability, tamper-proof price feeds, and the critical role oracles play in ensuring the deterministic execution of complex decentralized applications.

Amazon signed a $38 billion deal with OpenAI to provide it with Nvidia chip computing power.

PANews reported on November 4th that OpenAI has agreed to pay Amazon $38 billion for computing services in a seven-year agreement, marking the first collaboration between the AI startup and the cloud computing giant. Amazon expects all of its computing capacity to be available to OpenAI by the end of next year, allowing OpenAI to quickly access Nvidia's high-performance chips deployed in Amazon's data centers. While this deal is relatively small compared to OpenAI's previous contracts with other cloud giants, it holds significant strategic importance for Amazon, representing a crucial first step in its efforts to profit from the "AI computing power war." To date, OpenAI has signed new cloud service agreements worth nearly $600 billion with Oracle, Microsoft, and Amazon. Earlier this year, OpenAI also reached a cloud partnership agreement with Google, but the specific amount has not been disclosed. OpenAI's projected revenue for this year is $13 billion.

When the AI bill comes due, someone needs to pick up the tab

When the AI bill comes due, someone needs to pick up the tab

The post When the AI bill comes due, someone needs to pick up the tab appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Every trading day, I play a good-cop, bad-cop routine when it comes to the AI gravy train. The good cop sees boundless upside — the new industrial age unfolding in teraflops, a productivity boom financed by silicon and sweat. The bad cop, meanwhile, glances at LQD sagging under the weight of new supply and wonders how long the credit market can keep swallowing it all. Both have a point. Because this isn’t just another tech cycle — it’s the most capital-intensive build-out in modern market history, and the fuel isn’t earnings anymore, it’s debt. The numbers are staggering. More than $200 billion of AI-linked issuance has already flooded the market this year — more than a quarter of total net U.S. corporate supply. Meta alone dropped $30 billion, drawing a record $125 billion in orders; Oracle’s $18 billion sale in September was snapped up to fund data-center capacity leased to OpenAI. The credit market has become the primary financier of the AI revolution, and investors are lining up for a taste of the future, coupons and all. But beneath the euphoria sits a strange symmetry — the circular nature of the money. Nvidia sells the chips to Oracle. Oracle builds the racks for OpenAI. Microsoft bankrolls OpenAI, allowing it to purchase even more computing power. Meta issues a paper to fund its own hyperscale empire. Dollars spin through the system like current through a circuit board, each node feeding the next. Nothing leaves the ecosystem; it just recirculates between vendors, customers, and financiers, turning Wall Street into a kind of closed-loop liquidity engine. So far, everyone’s happy. Credit spreads remain tight, the big names are pristine, and there’s still more cash chasing paper than paper chasing buyers. Yet the LQD tape tells a quieter story — not one of panic,…

Amazon’s Deal With OpenAI Just Made Jeff Bezos $10 Billion Richer

The post Amazon’s Deal With OpenAI Just Made Jeff Bezos $10 Billion Richer appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Topline A bump in Amazon’s stock price Monday fueled by the news OpenAI had signed a $38 billion cloud computing deal with the retail giant bumped company founder Jeff Bezos’ estimated net worth roughly $10 billion in a single day, adding to the billions he gained following a strong earnings report from Amazon last week. Jeff Bezos on Oct. 4, 2025 in Paris, France. Getty Images Key Facts Shares of Amazon were up more than 4% on Monday afternoon following news earlier in the day that Amazon Web Services had secured a seven-year OpenAI contract to provide the computing power needed for its artificial intelligence technologies. Bezos, who founded Amazon out of his Seattle garage in 1994, holds 8% equity in Amazon and saw his net worth rise $9.8 billion, more than 3.8%, as of Monday afternoon. Bezos’ wealth jumped $19.4 billion on Friday thanks to a surge that took Amazon shares to a record high after the company reported $180.2 billion in revenues and earnings per share of $1.95, growth that beat Wall Street’s expectations and CEO Andy Jassy attributed largely to Amazon Web Services.

Sports Betting Pushes Kalshi and Polymarket Volumes to All-Time Highs

Sports Betting Pushes Kalshi and Polymarket Volumes to All-Time Highs

The post Sports Betting Pushes Kalshi and Polymarket Volumes to All-Time Highs appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Both leading prediction markets combined did more volume in October than Polymarket did in its first four years. October marked the prediction market sector’s best month yet, with leading platforms Kalshi and Polymarket processing a cumulative $7.4 billion in volume, well above their previous record in November 2024, when they processed a total of $4 billion driven by the U.S. Presidential election. While election markets —primarily the NYC Mayoral Election —are still generating hundreds of millions in volume, other niches, such as sports betting, are boosting volume metrics further. In October, Kalshi processed $4.4 billion, and Polymarket recorded $3 billion in volume, new all-time highs for both venues. Kalshi Volumes – Kalshi Sports markets on Kalshi in particular have exploded, with the offchain prediction market processing more than $1.1 billion in sports betting volume between Oct. 20 and Oct. 27, compared to just $51 million in its politics category. Meanwhile, Polymarket recorded $357 million in sports betting volume over the same period. On Oct. 22, legacy sports betting platform DraftKings also announced its acquisition of the Railbird prediction market, which will use Polymarket Clearing as its official clearinghouse. The surge in volume could be catalyzed by developments in both U.S. tax law and airdrop speculation. Under the One Big Beautiful Bill passed by the Trump administration in July, 2026 will mark the first year in which sports gamblers can only write off 90% of their gambling losses, as opposed to 100% currently. While the tax rules surrounding prediction markets are a little vague, sportsbooks and high-volume gamblers may be preparing for a world where prediction market sports gambling offers significant tax benefits compared to traditional bookies. There is also increased speculation around future token airdrops from Polymarket and Kalshi. Polymarket, a decentralized onchain prediction market, naturally has room in its…
