With the addition of Pyth Network's oracle services, the IOTA ecosystem gains a robust infrastructure that enhances data accuracy and security. This is crucial for the development of innovative financial products and services, ranging from sophisticated trading algorithms to comprehensive lending platforms.

Milestone for IOTA EVM

The integration marks a significant milestone in the effort to bootstrap a successful ecosystem within the IOTA EVM. It opens the door for many developers to leverage IOTA EVM's powerful properties to build the digital economy of the future.
