DIA Launches Free Oracles Across 15+ Blockchains via Grants and Staking

DIA, a provider of trustless oracle services for DeFi and real-world assets, has unveiled a dual initiative to expand access to its data feeds. The project's Oracle Grants Program, backed by partnerships with more than 15 blockchains, will cover oracle costs for developers building on networks ranging from Arbitrum to emerging platforms like Somnia.

The Arbitrum Foundation's Ben Greenberg endorsed the model, stating: "Removing cost barriers for builders is key to unlocking innovation." DIA previously demonstrated the program's effectiveness through an Arbitrum-based pilot that distributed 30,000 ARB tokens to spur dApp development.

Concurrently, DIA launched a staking mechanism involving 2 million native tokens. Participants secure the Lasernet oracle system while their staked assets subsidize developers' access to cross-chain data. This creates a flywheel effect—increased oracle usage generates more fees, which are then distributed back to stakers.
