Zug, Switzerland, May 22nd, 2025, Chainwire
Supra, the first Layer-1 blockchain built for Automatic DeFi (AutoFi) via vertical integration, today announced the debut of its latest innovation: Threshold AI Oracles, a breakthrough protocol that embeds rich data from on-demand AI queries natively on-chain for the first time. Their novel protocol brings intelligence to on-chain applications.
This marks a new era of smart contracts with integrated intelligence, powered by real-time AI reasoning along with cryptographic proof, transforming how decentralized applications built on Supra will be able to interact with the real world.
Oracles are the lifeblood of decentralized applications, but until now they’ve been limited to price feeds and raw data pipes. Supra’s Threshold AI Oracles introduce multi-agent AI committees that can reason, deliberate, and deliver cryptographically verifiable insights to smart contracts on-chain. This is a groundbreaking shift in the kind of data and information that dApps can access, bringing the fast-evolving world of AI-based queries to dApps securely, verifiably, and in a trustless manner.
“Bringing intelligence on-chain is the natural next step for both AI and blockchain,” said Joshua Tobkin, CEO and Co-Founder of Supra. “Threshold AI Oracles will bring active reasoning and all kinds of rich information to dApps on Supra, way beyond just price feed data, while ensuring that every piece of data driving their smart contracts has been validated for security.”
This evolution in AI and blockchain oracles opens up a world of new possibilities for dApps on Supra, unlocked by three novel capabilities:
- Context-Aware Reasoning: Unlike legacy oracles that stream raw inputs, Threshold AI Oracles deliberate over questions like “Did this regulatory change really occur?” or “Should this liquidation execute given the current market sentiment?” The threshold AI oracle protocol can query and return a consensus-based, verifiable response to such complex questions on-chain.
- Verifiable AI Logic: Each AI query response comes with a compact, threshold BLS signature, providing cryptographic proof that a quorum of AI agents reached the decision, verifiable in milliseconds, and trustless at scale.
- Just-in-Time Execution: These AI agents operate on-demand, only activating when a smart contract explicitly queries them or when a condition is met. This prevents gas bloating or wasted computation, resulting in lean and intelligent responsiveness.
New Class of Intelligent On-Chain Applications
From DeFi and DAOs to prediction markets and real-world event triggers, Supra’s Threshold AI Oracles open doors for a richer category of intelligent dApps that can now get datasets of complex information on demand natively, with no centralized off-chain intermediaries or unverifiable black-box AI outputs.
“Until now, developers had to bolt AI onto crypto applications with off-chain hacks and centralized APIs to tap into this kind of intelligence,” said Jon Jones, CBO and Co-Founder of Supra. “But with Threshold AI Oracles being built into the Supra network, we can bring a new class of intelligence to on-chain applications natively with logic that is on-chain, verifiable, and secure.”
This new oracle layer is planned to roll out in three progressive phases in upcoming network upgrades on Supra Layer-1:
- Phase 1, Numerical Judgments: Yes/no verdicts, sentiment numerical scores, and binary validations.
- Phase 2, Structured Commands: JSON-based automation instructions for DeFi logic and DAO actions.
- Phase 3, Code-Generating Oracles: Supra’s long-term roadmap includes full generation of smart contract logic, enabling dApps that adapt, evolve, and govern themselves adaptively.
As the crypto industry matures and on-chain governance becomes increasingly autonomous, the need for intelligent, verifiable decision-making is now absolutely crucial. Supra’s Threshold AI Oracles address this importance, fusing LLM-powered reasoning with threshold cryptography, bringing intelligence on-chain without compromising decentralization or security.
“AI-enabled Oracles are the missing link between data and decision,” added Tobkin. “Supra is proud to bring this to Web3 in a way that is scalable, verifiable, and deeply integrated into our Layer-1.”
This protocol adds to Supra’s existing vertically integrated stack of native oracle price feeds, system-level automation and bridgeless cross-chain messaging — all of which are built into the Supra Layer 1 blockchain network.
Supra’s distinguished Research Team is proud to have published an elaborate whitepaper on this pioneering technology, which was made available this week for free download and review. Supra invites developers to review and test the Threshold AI Oracle module (coming soon to public testnet) with support materials available through its Developer Hub. With Supra’s Threshold AI Oracles, the next generation of dApps can now reason, react, and evolve on-chain and in realtime.
About Supra
Supra is the first chain built for Automatic DeFi (AutoFi), a novel self-operating automated financial system that also serves as the perfect framework for crypto AI Agents, built upon its vertically integrated Layer-1 blockchain with built-in high-speed smart contracts, native price oracles, system-level automation and bridgeless cross-chain messaging.
Supra’s vertical stack unlocks all-new AutoFi primitives that can generate fair recurring protocol revenue and redistribute it across the ecosystem, reducing reliance on inflationary block rewards entirely over time. This stack equips on-chain AI Agents with all the tools they need to run a wide variety of powerful DeFi workflows for users automatically, autonomously, and securely.
