Oracles
Oracles enable access to reliable off-chain data and information that might be necessary for for smart contracts to enable specific use cases.
The most common requirement is token prices for different token pairs. There are more complex use cases as well, for example:
Dynamic NFTs that have variable properties that can change based on events that happen in the real world
Some dApps require access to a reliable source of random numbers
Oracles are essentially API services that smart contracts can use to fetch off-chain data.
