Many in the world of DeFi have heard about and rely on oracles like Chainlink and Pyth Network for their trusted data feeds, but there is a new protocol that has enshrined oracles directly into it’s EVM Layer 1 Blockchain.

In this episode Ian Andrews (CMO, Chainalysis) speaks with Co-founder and CEO of Flare Network, Hugo Philion.

Hugo shares his transition from hedge fund trading to blockchain and emphasizes the increasing need for decentralized data in an industry that heavily relies on information from data providers.

He breaks down Flare's architecture, offering cost-effective and secure data oracles, while being sure to differentiate their solution from existing systems that are vulnerable due to lack of decentralization and potential for collusion.

Hugo even explains how KYC and AML can be integrated by the developers building on Flare and how important regulation is to move the industry forward.
