>AOIN bridges are actually decentralized oracles. They can feed data from participating blockchains, but also from non-blockchain legacy sources (e.g. data feeds for meterological services, sports results, whatever). They don't use the term 'blockchain agnostic', but decentralized oracles can be developed using AION bridges to pull data from any source. They are 'source agnistic' in that sense. You should do some research on this, you'd quickly learn that even if Chainlink ever does commit to a launch date, they will not have much traction in the market at that stage.
LMAO holy fuck that sub has some dumb people on it. I guess this is what your brain is like on onions milk.

>AION offers a more efficient approach to solve the same problem. Aion bridge is an entire Byzantine Fault Tolerant protocol on its own where the majority of nodes must agree on transactions or state changes on one network (whether it’s a DTL or Legacy system as in real-time data feed from a meteorological office), then pass that information to another network.
>So an Aion bridge can act as a decentralized oracle that pulls real-time data feed into the Aion blockchain, so other interconnected blockchains can make use of that data. Make sense?

See how advanced they are?

The way you phrased it makes it sound like their oracles would be a copy of oraclize oracles. Not decentralized at all and completely open to sybil attacks.
>"When we talk about cross chain, people are often thinking about atomic swaps, and other forms of moving coins, ... and that definitely a use case, an importanat use case, and that is where a lot of the adoption is today. But our view is that blockchains become a core part of the infrastructure of many many different industries, and many different processes, so transactions are significantly more generic than just coin swaps so anytime data is written in a smart contract, that's a transaction. Anytime you need to validate something on network, that's a transaction. So, we look at these as generic events, so we are creating a protocol that allows you to validate that an event has taken place, and that event could be a coin moving or it could be something completely different, it could be someone uploading data into a contract, or whatever the case might be." >Related to this - Aion also serves as a general oracle, it doesn't need to only be pulling from blockchains, but any database, even things like tangles.
