How Does a Decentralized Oracle Network (DON) Improve Data Security?

A DON sources data from multiple independent nodes and data providers, aggregating the inputs to arrive at a consensus or median price. This redundancy and aggregation make it prohibitively expensive and difficult for a single malicious actor to manipulate the data feed.

The network uses cryptographic proofs and a reputation system to penalize dishonest nodes, ensuring data integrity and security.
