Security & Audits
Oracles supply external price data to on-chain contracts. Oracle compromise is a common attack vector — diversified providers reduce single-point-of-failure risk.

Protocol Profile
Ostium is a Derivatives protocol where traders open leveraged, perpetual, or option positions priced off oracle feeds and settled in collateral held by the contract. It is deployed on Arbitrum. The codebase has been independently audited (1 report on file).

Protocol Footprint
Ostium is a single-chain protocol, deployed exclusively on Arbitrum — this concentrates execution risk but simplifies the trust model. Price discovery relies on 2 oracle providers (Stork, Chainlink), which diversifies the data-feed surface but also expands the set of third parties users implicitly trust. Only one audit report is currently listed; users should weigh that against the protocol's TVL before depositing significant amounts.
