The PYTH token spiked momentarily on the news but has since receded in line with the wider market. It is now down by 9% over the past 24 hours.

Pyth competes with ChainLink and aims to provide accurate price feeds for DeFi protocols. It airdropped its native token (PYTH) in 2023 and has $7.5 billion in value secured on its oracle, according to DefiLlama.

Pyth also receives data from crypto exchanges Bitstamp, Bybit and Binance as well as several trading firms such as Jane Street and Cumberland DRW.

ChainLink's market share for oracles has diminished since the emergence of Pyth; in May 2021 ChainLink controlled 69% of price data feeds compared to Pyth's tally of 0.08%. Those figures have now evened out to 52% and 11%, respectively.
