Honestly, have you also been overwhelmed by the noise in the crypto world? Every day, the group chat is flooded with messages shouting "buy the dip this way" or "go all in on that," as if missing a second means missing out on a huge fortune.

But have you ever thought—those DeFi projects you invest in, the NFTs you buy, rely on the most fundamental data, like price information and competition results, which could itself be deceiving you? It's like trying to catch falling gold bars from the sky with a paper cup—no matter how precise your operation, it's pointless.

The project we're discussing today originated from the persistence of a group of engineers four years ago—while everyone else was busy building skyscrapers, they chose to pause and reinforce the "data foundation" beneath all those structures, the unnoticed base that all buildings depend on.

**An engineer’s kind of "anger"**

They have witnessed too many tragedies: smart contracts don't explode because of code bugs, but because the data fed into them is poison. A delayed price update can trigger a chain of liquidations; a tampered data source can wipe out an entire protocol in an instant.

At that moment, they realized a harsh truth—if blockchain claims to be a "trust machine," then feeding it untrustworthy data is the greatest irony.

They gave up chasing trends and sat down to ponder the most "foolish" question: how can we ensure the data is trustworthy from the very source?

This idea eventually evolved into a project.
