API3: First-Party Oracle Token for Secure DeFi Data

Utility & Use Cases API3

Staking for Yield

Lock API3 to earn weekly rewards, gain DAO votes, and underwrite oracle coverage.

DAO Governance

Staked holders propose and vote on upgrades, budgets, new feeds and incentive rates.

Direct Data Feeds

dAPIs supply prices, weather, FX and QRNG to lending, DEX, NFT and insurance apps.

OEV Profit Sharing

Integrated protocols earn a cut of Oracle Extractable Value from update auctions.

Multi-Chain Reach

Airnode deploys on 16+ networks so builders fetch data where their users trade today.

API3 Technologies Overview

Airnode

Serverless oracle node run by data owners; no middleman, low latency.

Aggregated dAPIs

On-chain contracts combine signed feeds for robust, tamper-resistant values.

OEV Auctions

Sealed-bid system that captures MEV and rebates it to integrated DeFi platforms.

Quantum RNG

True randomness sourced from ANU hardware, ideal for gaming and NFT drops.

Cross-Chain Deployment

One Airnode serves many EVM chains, easing scaling and reducing gas cost.

Funding

API3 raised $3 M in a 2020 seed led by Placeholder and $23 M in a public Mesa auction, placing 35 % of supply with backers and the community. No further rounds were needed; today the DAO treasury remains well-funded in stablecoins and API3, supporting grants, audits and liquidity.

Roadmap

Airnode v1 Release

Production-grade node package with one-click cloud deployment, targeted for 2025.

Flagship DeFi Integrations

Compound and other top lenders voting on switching to API3 price feeds and OEV.

OEV Expansion

Extend auction model beyond lending to DEX, perp and gaming data feeds.

Non-EVM Support

Research adapters for Cosmos and Solana ecosystems to widen developer reach.

API3 Security & Audit Reports

API3 smart contracts have passed multiple audits by Sigma Prime, Trail of Bits and Quantstamp; an on-chain insurance pool backs feeds, and signed first-party data reduces attack surface.
