How Does a Decentralized Oracle Network (DON) Mitigate the Risk of a Single Point of Failure?

A Decentralized Oracle Network (DON) mitigates this risk by sourcing data from multiple independent, verifiable, and often cryptographically secured Oracles. The smart contract requires a consensus among these independent nodes before accepting the data.

If one Oracle is compromised or provides bad data, the majority of the network's correct data will still prevail. This distributed and redundant structure removes reliance on any single data provider.
