Overview
Drift Protocol (DRIFT) is a decentralized exchange on the Solana blockchain, focused on perpetual swaps and leveraged trading.
- On recent oracle issues:
tl;dr:
Network congestion led to stale oracles and degraded ux. Recently released improvements to pull oracles will make it so that, even with network congestion, drift has fresh oracles
More details:
Due to network congestion, drift experienced issues with stale oracles. This degrades protocol performance with withdraws being a specific pain point.
Withdraws require strict margin checks to ensure protocol solvency and thus stale oracles cause withdraws to fail
While updating oracles is permisisonless, in practice most of the oracle updates come from bots run by core contributors (with some updates coming from market makers and liquidators). When there is network congestion and priority fees spike, it becomes more difficult/expensive for keeper bots to update oracles
The best fix for this is to increase the unique number of users that are posting updates. Ideally every user updates relevant oracles every time they interact with the protocol.
Historically this has been difficult due to limits with tx size and the size of oracle update signatures. But oracle providers are working to shrink the message size which unlocks the ability to pack oracle updates into more user tx. The recent pyth lazer release from @PythNetwork is a significant reduction in message size and will allow users to pack several oracle updates with their transaction. Drift will begin using pyth lazer for a series of markets over the next week.
E.g. if a user goes to withdraw from drift, they can bundle all the relevant oracle updates into the transaction and guarantee that oracles are fresh.
Longer term there is a SIMD 226 which aims to increase the max tx size, opening up even more room for users to post oracle updates without risk of hitting max tx size.
There are of course other benefits to having fresher oracles - more accurate funding rates, better fills from the amm and market makers, etc. Looking forward to seeing these oracle improvements making it to prod.
