Protocol Overview

Molpha is the programmable oracle layer that anyone can use. It removes the barriers between off-chain data and on-chain logic, delivering a practical, scalable path toward truly open oracle infrastructure.

​
The Problem

Most oracle networks today share four limitations:
  1. Closed Access – Only a few operators can list or manage feeds
  2. Volatile Economics – Token-based fees fluctuate with market cycles
  3. Rigid Architecture – Custom or niche APIs are difficult or impossible to onboard
  4. Centralized Coordination – A handful of aggregators create operational bottlenecks
For Web3 to evolve beyond finance, data infrastructure must become as open and programmable as smart contracts themselves.

​
The Solution

Molpha is the programmable oracle layer that anyone can use.
  • Accessible — Permissionless feed creation; any API can be connected in minutes
  • Stable — Pure USDC economy for predictable costs and rewards
  • Decentralized — Independent verifier nodes with rotating leadership replace centralized aggregators
  • Secure — API keys managed through HashiCorp Vault; on-chain verification ensures integrity
Vision: an open oracle fabric where every developer can publish, verify, and monetize data transparently.

​
Five-Layer Architecture

Molpha is structured as a five-layer stack:

​
1. Solana Program — Canonical Layer

  • The single source of truth for feeds, node registration, deposits, and reputation
  • Manages staking, slashing, and feed metadata
  • Written in Rust (Anchor)
  • Provides verifiable state to all connected ecosystems

​
2. Verifier Nodes — Validation Layer

  • Independent bonded nodes or Dawn Black Boxes run off-chain
  • Fetch data from APIs, validate results, and sign them
  • Use a rotating leader model to publish results on Solana
  • Written in Go, communicating via gRPC / WebSocket
  • Access keys securely fetched from HashiCorp Vault

​
3. Smart Contracts — Consumer Layer (EVM)

  • Lightweight feed contracts on EVM chains
  • Manage subscriptions, distribute rewards, and store compact feed data
  • Use SSTORE2 and bitmaps for gas-efficient storage

​
4. Backend & Indexers

  • Custom Solana indexer for feed and node events
  • Ponder indexer for EVM analytics and consumer dashboards
  • Backend handles cross-chain sync, API orchestration, and subscription tracking

​
5. Frontend

  • Web dashboard for creating and managing feeds
  • Wallet-based login (Solana + EVM)
  • Real-time feed data, analytics, and node performance metrics
  • Built with Next.js, TypeScript, Reown AppKit, Anchor + wagmi/viem.

​
Partnerships & Integrations

  • Dawn Internet — Plug-and-play hardware nodes for decentralized data infrastructure
  • HashiCorp Vault — Secure storage for protected API credentials
  • Ponder — EVM indexing and analytics engine
