About

UMA is an optimistic oracle that can verify any natural language statement as true on the blockchain, so contracts asking for that data can be settled.  Across, built by UMA, is a cross-chain bridge that supports cheap, secure, and near-instantaneous transfers between L2s and to L1. Across transfers are secured by UMA’s Optimistic Oracle.  Builders can use UMA as a decentralized truth machine that is flexible enough to handle ambiguity and real-world data with human-powered dispute resolution. UMA secures and empowers a diverse set of Web3 applications, including cross-chain bridges, insurance protocols, prediction markets and customizable DAO tooling products.
