+## What is Pyth ?
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Pyth is an Oracle that offers on-chain low-latency market data from institutional sources.
|
|
|
+This means you can use prices from real-life assets in your Solana programs.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+The price for each asset will be represented inside of a Solana account. We call those accounts price feeds.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+For example, the price feed for SOL/USD on mainnet is represented on this account address: `H6ARHf6YXhGYeQfUzQNGk6rDNnLBQKrenN712K4AQJEG`.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+You can find more of these price feeds [here](https://pyth.network/price-feeds?cluster=mainnet-beta).
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+To use such a price feed, you need to pass its account into your instructions context.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+You can get an asset's information by reading the account's data. The feed will consist of:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+- A price
|
|
|
+- A confidence interval
|
|
|
+- An exponent
|
|
