Pyth Network, a top oracle network, has expanded its reach within the decentralized finance market with a new feature dubbed Redemption Rate Feeds.
Announced on Oct. 24, the redemption rate feeds, or RRF, provide real-time valuations for liquid staking tokens, restaking tokens, and yield-bearing stablecoins. With this feature, Pyth Network (PYTH) offers the broader DeFi market access to pricing data that traditional price feeds do not provide.
The practical impact is that DeFi platforms now have access to precise valuation data of complex assets.
“Think of it as moving from estimated value to exact value—a crucial upgrade that enables more protocols to use Pyth price feeds,” Pyth Network wrote.
How it works
Crypto redemption rate feeds provide live values of tokens, with data pulled directly from underlying assets’ smart contracts. According to the Pyth Network team, these true values include accrued rewards and interest.
It’s this that makes RRF “fundamentally different from market price data,” Pyth added in a post on X.
This type of valuations are for derivatives such as liquid staking tokens and yield-bearing stablecoins. The feeds are permissionless and accessible to DeFi builders across the ecosystem.
At launch, Pyth Network’s redemption rate feeds will cover 19 real-time values on Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM)-compatible networks. These include the Crypto.com staked ETH (CDCETH), Mountain Protocol’s wUSDM, Ondo Finance’s U.S. Dollar Yield (USDY), and Ethena’s USDe, a synthetic dollar.
The feeds will also include ETH staking pairs, such as Coinbase wrapped staked ETH (cbETH) and Rocket Pool’s liquid staking token rETH.
Pyth Network’s product enters the market through key industry integrations with market makers, lending protocols, aggregators, and derivatives providers. Launch partners include Ionic, ZeroLend, UniDEX Exchange, and Polynomial.
