Waellet Oracle Service

Waellet Oracle Service

This repo is hosting the oracle service used in waellet browser.

Oracles are needed in waellet for the tipping functionality it offers its users.

How the tipping works

It works in a decentralized way via smart contracts and allows visitors to tip your website with only few simple clicks in the waellet extension.

Oracles

Oracles are used to verify the ownership of a certain domain name. The smart contracts generate a TXT record that one will need to add to the claimed domain's DNS records in order for them to proove its ownership.

Tipping

Meanwhile the tipping functionality works out of the box and one can tip a website even if it is not yet confirmed by its owner.

The smart contract will act as a jar and store the tips until the rightful owner claims the possesion of the domain.

Config

Create a config/config.js containing the secrets for the orale

module.exports = {
    keypair: {
        secretKey: "<SECRET_KEY>",
        publicKey: "<PUBLIC_KEY>"
    },
    client: {
        secretKey: "<SECRET_KEY>",
        publicKey: "<PUBLIC_KEY>"
    }
}
