# Oracle

The **Oracle** contract serves as a bridge for retrieving asset price data, using **Redstone** as the underlying data provider. It integrates to deliver real-time asset prices, ensuring that all operations such as vault pricing and liquidation processes, are calculated based on up-to-date market data.

**Key Features:**

1. **RedStone Price Feeds** – Pulls live asset prices from RedStone’s decentralized oracles
2. **Stateless Queries** – Fetches data on demand, ensuring every price is fresh without storing state
3. **Permissionless Access** – Any contract can call the Oracle to retrieve price data as needed.
