Speaker: Nik Kunkel of Maker DAO Abstract: MakerDAO's Oracles currently support over $700M of value locked in DeFi. But how do they work, and why should we rely on them? Are they decentralized? Beginning with a technical deep-dive into the Oracle stack used in Multi-Collateral Dai, we'll deconstruct the problems encountered along the way, and their subsequent solutions. Looking to the future, we'll examine the role of Maker Governance in shaping Maker's decentralized Oracle stack. This talk was recorded Friday, February 14, 2020.
