# Overview

Oracles play a crucial role in DIVA Protocol by reporting outcomes that determine the payoffs for long and short position tokens.

To ensure reliable data, the table below presents a list of trusted decentralized oracle options for use in DIVA Protocol. To utilize any of these oracles, simply assign the corresponding data provider address to the dataProvider field when creating a pool.

Currently, [Tellor protocol](https://tellor.io/) has been integrated as the initial decentralized oracle provider, and as the protocol progresses, additional oracle integrations will be incorporated to enhance functionality and choice.
