Hackusama Technology Highlight - DeFi, Oracles, and Node Infrastructure
Happy Friday! Looking for ideas for other tools and tech to use for your project?
Hackusama has teamed up with Acala, Chainlink, and Gantree to provide additional tools, technology, and support for you and your teams.
Acala - DeFi primitives
Acala will launch as a DeFi parachain for Kusama and Polkadot. Acala's team is offering up a suite of out-of-box DeFi primitives such as stablecoin, staking derivatives and decentralized exchange to power more DeFi applications. They've also open-sourced common utility modules such as oracle, multi-currency, generic monitoring framework for teams to use.
Their offerings are production-grade and production-ready. The full-stack DeFi primitives, pallets and SDKs available are:
- Honzon stablecoin: multi-collateralized cross-chain stablecoin aUSD using Bitcoin & DOT as collaterals
- Homa staking derivative: release staked DOT liquidity for DeFi and more
- DeX: constant product automatic market maker type decentralized exchange
- Oracle: out-of-box aggregator, operator setup, advanced fee customization and quality of service
- Multi-currency: offers a unified interface for enabling multi-currency support for Substrate-based chains
- Governance: implemented with progressive decentralization
Below is all the necessary documentation to get you going:
- Acala Dapp
- Wiki Documentation
- Use this as an example of how to use the JS SDK
- Acala JS SDK
- Acala Console
- Open Web3 Stack open library
More information and Acala's full Hackusama blog post can be found here.

Chainlink - Oracle Pallet
You can build a substrate blockchain that can connect to any API, data source, or external feed you like. Just add the Chainlink pallet to your blockchain, and you're now ready to start! Find the repo for documentation here and watch the demo here.
Chainlink is a decentralized oracle network that enables smart contracts to securely connect with any data and system outside the blockchain such as data providers, web APIs, IoT networks, other blockchains, enterprise backends, traditional bank payments, and more. Chainlink is critical to connecting the Ethereum ecosystem to the rest of the world.
Gantree - Full-service node infrastructure toolkit for Substrate-based blockchains
Our friends at Gantree have built a full-service node infrastructure toolkit for Substrate-based blockchains. It should be a very useful toolkit to many of you. Check out all the details in a recent blog post from their CTO, Tom Nash, or watch their 3 minute demo.
