RedStone posted an article explaining how oracle systems prevent inaccurate quotes
On January 1st, Google reported incorrect price information for Euro/Polish Złoty and Dollar/Polish Złoty, accounting for 20% of the report.
An oracle is a system that aggregates data from multiple sources and delivers it to dApps and Web3 projects.
Oracles rely on not just one but a multitude of data points to build robust data streams.

Akord introduced the current status of the Arweave donation fund
The donation fund of Arweave has just surpassed 66,000 AR, equivalent to 0.1% of Arweave's maximum supply.
When users make prepayments to store data on Arweave, not all of the storage fees are allocated to miners. 83.33% of the payments enter the donation fund.
This donation fund will pay the miners based on specific conditions, ensuring that the block rewards for storing data remain higher than the cost of miners to store data.
