Now, that experiment scales. Avalanche, Somnia, and others join a program turning data feeds from a cost center into a growth catalyst.<\/p>\n<p>According to a June 24 press release shared with crypto.news, DIA has launched its long-awaited mainnet staking program alongside a multichain Oracle Grants initiative, effectively eliminating oracle costs for developers across more than 15 blockchain ecosystems.<\/p>\n<p>The move, backed by partnerships with Arbitrum, Avalanche, and emerging chains like Somnia, repurposes staking rewards into subsidized oracle fees for up to 12 months on participating networks, turning DIA\u2019s infrastructure into a self-sustaining public utility.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The mechanics behind DIA\u2019s self-funding oracle model<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>DIA\u2019s model ties staking rewards on Lumina, the project\u2019s fully onchain and trustless oracle stack, directly to usage. Each oracle update on the project\u2019s rollup chain, Lasernet, generates a fee\u2014recycled back into the network.<\/p>\n<p>This creates a feedback loop: more developers using free oracles means more transaction volume, which in turn boosts staking rewards and enhances network security. Zygis Marazas, DIA\u2019s Head of Product, describes it as \u201cutility staking,\u201d a departure from passive yield farming.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cStaking on Lumina is not just about yield\u2014it\u2019s about utility and alignment. Every DIA oracle update is an on-chain transaction on Lasernet, every transaction\u2019s fee is reinvested into the system, and every staker plays a critical role in securing our data pipeline. This cryptoeconomic security is essential for our fully trustless oracle network, and we\u2019re just getting started.\u201d Zygis stated.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>This approach builds on an earlier pilot with Arbitrum, where a 30,000 ARB grant funded DIA\u2019s \u201cOracle Gasdrop\u201d and led to a measurable spike in developer activity.<\/p>\n<p>Now, with the new program, DIA is extending that same model across a broader landscape, committing over two million DIA tokens into chain-specific staking vaults. The implications could reshape how DeFi projects bootstrap liquidity. Oracles, long viewed as a non-negotiable expense, now function as a growth mechanism under DIA\u2019s model.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When DIA and Arbitrum slashed oracle costs, dApps surged.
