blockchain - How can I include real world data in a smart contract? -
lets want write simple contract bet on weather 10 days now, or outcome of sporting event.
how connect third party application hosts data , use write smart contract?
what looking oracle.
ethereum , other blockchains unable access data outside of network(the way think imagine if entire ethereum network tried access weather api mentioned @ same time...) oracles come in. oracles third party services designed use smart contracts provide , push external data chain including weather example.
there many different ways set , different services can use own oracle
