Token information

What is Paxos Standard (PAX)?

Paxos Standard (PAX) is a USD-backed stablecoin issued by the Paxos Trust Company, a regulated financial institution. PAX runs primarily on Ethereum as an ERC-20 token and operates on several other blockchains. Launched in 2018, it maintains a 1:1 peg to the US dollar and is fully collateralized by cash and cash equivalents held in reserve. PAX enables tokenized dollar transfers across blockchain networks while maintaining regulatory compliance through Paxos's trust charter.

The Paxos Standard price API is a data interface that returns real-time PAX price information sourced from aggregated trades across on-chain and off-chain exchanges. Developers integrate this API into applications that need current PAX valuations, such as trading dashboards, portfolio trackers, DeFi protocols, or settlement systems that reference the stablecoin's market rate.

DIA offers a Paxos Standard price API by aggregating individual trade data across 100+ exchanges covering 3,000+ assets. The free API endpoint available on this page serves testing and evaluation purposes only. For production deployments, DIA builds dedicated, custom-configured feeds where developers specify data sources, pricing methodology, and update frequency. Production feeds and custom requirements are requested through DIA's Discord or Telegram.

DIA publishes a free Paxos Standard price API endpoint on this asset page, available for developers to test and evaluate without cost. The free endpoint is intended for testing and evaluation purposes only, not for production use. Paxos Standard (PAX) is an ERC-20 stablecoin backed by US dollars held in reserve, and its price data can be accessed through this testing endpoint for development work. For production deployments or customized Paxos Standard price feeds configured by data sources, pricing methodology, and update frequency, developers should request a dedicated feed via DIA's Discord or Telegram channels.

A blockchain price oracle is an external data provider that supplies verified offchain information to smart contracts, enabling them to access real-world market prices without leaving the blockchain.

DIA can deploy a Paxos Standard price oracle on any of its 60+ supported blockchains. This oracle delivers onchain PAX price data that smart contracts can consume directly. PAX is Paxos's ERC-20 stablecoin, and DIA's price feed aggregates trade data from 100+ exchanges to provide accurate market pricing.

DIA's price oracle infrastructure runs on Lasernet, DIA's Ethereum layer-2 rollup, which makes each feed independently verifiable. For production deployments or custom requirements, DIA builds dedicated price oracles configurable by data sources, pricing methodology, and update frequency. These can be requested via DIA's Discord or Telegram channels.

DIA calculates the Paxos Standard price by aggregating individual trade data for PAX across multiple on-chain and off-chain sources spanning numerous exchanges. This methodology differs from relying on a single exchange or liquidity pool, which would expose the feed to localized price anomalies or temporary imbalances.

The data sources and pricing methodology used in DIA's Paxos Standard feed are transparent. For production deployments, the feed is configurable: applications can specify which data sources to include, adjust the pricing methodology, and set update frequency according to their requirements. Custom feeds are requested through DIA's Discord or Telegram channels.

A free API endpoint for Paxos Standard pricing is available on this asset's page for testing and evaluation purposes only.

Paxos Standard (PAX) is an ERC-20 stablecoin pegged to the US dollar, so price feeds enable applications that require reliable dollar-denominated reference data. Developers can build stablecoin collateral systems that accept PAX as backing for other assets, using a price oracle to verify the $1 peg for liquidation triggers. Decentralized exchange protocols can integrate PAX price feeds to enable accurate spot pricing and slippage calculations during token swaps. Lending protocols accept PAX as collateral or loan denomination and depend on oracles to calculate loan-to-value ratios and trigger liquidations when prices drift. Settlement applications use PAX price verification to confirm execution of dollar-based transactions on-chain with minimal trust assumptions.

DIA aggregates Paxos Standard price data from 100+ exchanges, giving developers transparent visibility into which sources feed each price point. Developers can request a custom Paxos Standard feed configured by data sources, pricing methodology, and update frequency to match their application's requirements.

DIA deploys price oracles across 60+ blockchains, so Paxos Standard feeds can reach applications on multiple chains from a single integration point. Each feed runs on Lasernet, DIA's Ethereum layer-2 rollup, enabling independent verification of price data on-chain.

Developers can test DIA's free price-feed API endpoint for Paxos Standard on this page to evaluate data quality and latency. For production use or custom configurations, a dedicated feed can be requested through DIA's Discord or Telegram.
