RedStone

RedStone is a modular blockchain oracle network that has become the dominant oracle solution on Hyperliquid, operating under the HyperStone brand for the ecosystem. Oracles are critical infrastructure — they provide smart contracts with real-world price feeds, enabling DeFi lending, derivatives, and synthetic assets to function correctly. RedStone's architecture is uniquely well-suited to Hyperliquid's high-performance environment: rather than pushing price updates to the chain on every tick (a costly approach), RedStone uses a pull-based model where data is fetched on-demand and cryptographically verified on-chain, dramatically reducing costs while maintaining freshness and accuracy. Securing approximately 99.5% of oracle-protected value on Hyperliquid, HyperStone feeds power a wide range of DeFi protocols on HyperEVM — from lending markets to perpetual protocols and yield vaults. RedStone aggregates price data from dozens of sources, applying outlier filtering and cryptographic attestation to ensure data integrity. With support for hundreds of assets and sub-second update latency, HyperStone gives Hyperliquid's DeFi ecosystem enterprise-grade price feeds, enabling complex financial products to be built with confidence in the underlying data infrastructure.
