What is FDC?
Flare Data Connector (FDC) brings reliable, secure, and verified data from other blockchains and the internet to power smart contracts on Flare.
How it works
The FDC verifies user-submitted attestation requests. Verified responses are organized into a Merkle tree, with only the Merkle root stored on-chain. Users retrieve attestation responses and Merkle proofs from data providers and submit them to smart contracts.
