portusnetwork/portkey repository overview

Portus is a multi-chain open, trustless, permissionless API gateway, connecting dApps to traditional, real-world APIs in a new way. All currently available data oracles provide real-world data to dApps using an approach that involves a man-in-the-middle solution. This means that there is always a node that sits between the API provider and the dApp that requires data.

Portus allows any API provider to run his on-chain node. dApps would talk directly to the API providers without requiring an intermediary. This approach creates competition, promotes decentralization, and provides a way for data providers to self-manage without needing an intermediary to do so.
