⛽ What’s the Gas Cost for Fetching Data?

  • Fetching prices from QIE Oracle contracts is read-only and uses Solidity’s view functions.

  • When called externally (e.g., via eth_call), no gas is consumed to read data on-chain.

  • Gas is only required if the price data is used inside a state-changing transaction (for example, a function that modifies contract storage).

💡 Tips for Gas Optimization

  • Use caching strategies to minimize repeated oracle calls within the same transaction or block.

  • Implement sanity checks off-chain or in smart contracts to avoid unnecessary state updates triggered by anomalous data.

✅ Summary

QIE Oracle provides frequent, secure, and cost-efficient access to real-time asset prices. Developers can request new assets and trust transparent, auditable updates to power DeFi, gaming, and tokenized asset applications on QIE Layer 1.
