# Stage 3: Polyquest Prediction Oracle Chain

The ultimate goal of Polyquest is to introduce the **World’s First Prediction Oracle Chain**. This phase will allow external DApps and projects to integrate the Polyquest Oracle system without relying on centralized Web2 data sources, positioning Polyquest as a leader in blockchain-based oracle solutions.

## **How Stage 3 Works**

1. **Oracle as a Service (OaaS)**
   * The **Polyquest Prediction Oracle Chain** will provide an **on-chain oracle service** for DApps and platforms that require real-world outcome data without relying on centralized APIs or Web2 systems.
   * Other blockchain projects and decentralized applications can either **build on** Polyquest’s Oracle Chain or **fork** the chain to customize it for their specific needs.
2. **Market Contract API Integration**
   * To make the oracle system accessible, Polyquest will provide a **Market Contract API**. This API will enable DApps to easily plug into the oracle system to fetch real-world outcomes based on decentralized reports submitted by oracle nodes.
   * This integration allows other projects to leverage Polyquest’s decentralized oracle infrastructure without building their own.
3. **Decentralized Oracle for the Broader Web3 Ecosystem**
   * The Prediction Oracle Chain will not only power Polyquest but also support other Web3 applications, allowing them to tap into the power of decentralized, transparent, and trustless real-world outcome reporting.
   * This chain will empower applications that need oracle data, particularly for use cases where reliance on Web2 APIs is not viable or secure.
4. **Token Utilities in Stage 3**
   * **$POLY** tokens will be the key utility token for running the Prediction Oracle Chain. Validators, oracle nodes, and developers building on the chain will all need to stake or hold $POLY to participate.
   * **Fees** for using the oracle services will be paid in **$POLY**, creating a robust demand for the token as the ecosystem grows.
   * Users who contribute to the oracle process, from submitting data to validating it, will be rewarded in **$POLY**, ensuring continuous participation and engagement.
