Indices
Each market contract on Any.trade is linked to an underlying index, which is collected and verified by decentralized data oracles. For indices based on prices, oracles compile pricing information from both centralized exchanges (CEXs) and decentralized exchanges (DEXs). For other types of indices, data oracles gather information according to specific formulas that define the market. This can include custom aggregations over designated time frames.
For instance, the “Bitcoin Token” index currently follows the spot price from Binance, while the “Bitcoin Transfers” index monitors the number of UTXOs in the past 24 hours. An index like “Elon Twitter Followers” could track the increase in Elon Musk's followers on Twitter over the last day. The “Daily Pumps” index might be formulated as a semi-random walk time series, derived from the latest block hash.
