The Oracle Problem Discussion Page
Welcome to the talk page for discussing improvements to the Oracle Problem article. Talk pages (also known as discussion pages) are Wiki administration pages where editors/contributors discuss improvements that can be made to an article.

Blockchain nodes are designed to perform standardized and uniform operations to generate consensus on a set of transactions (solving the double-spend problem). However, they are not suited to answer subjective questions about probabilistic real-world data, as blockchain nodes do not always have access to the same information, making generating consensus on even the most basic data requests challenging and source quality enforcement impossible.
