According to BlockBeats, on August 16, Layer1 blockchain Alephium announced a partnership with DIA to deploy DIA's cross-chain oracle infrastructure. This collaboration aims to introduce various products to the Alephium ecosystem, including token price oracles, random number generators, and fair price oracles. The integration is expected to strengthen Alephium's position as a smart contract-enabled Proof-of-Work (PoW) chain in the DeFi space. Several projects, such as Alephium Bank and Linx Labs, are already preparing to utilize DIA's oracle technology for their innovative applications.

Additionally, leading ASIC manufacturers Bitmain and IceRiver released their ALPH miners on July 20, 2024, further boosting confidence in the Alephium ecosystem.
