William Reilly explains why Chainlink Runtime Environment is the biggest architectural shift in oracle infrastructure:
"Historically, Chainlink built oracle networks for one purpose, price of Bitcoin to Ethereum. One network, one function. Massive horizontal scaling problem."
"Chainlink Runtime Environment: open-source developer platform. Plug in any data. Build your own consensus. Same decentralized benefits as DeFi, but now you deploy it yourself."
"Write a workflow once, deploy to many chains. One-to-many instead of standing up a singular oracle network for every deployment."
