Newton Protocol

As real-world assets move onchain and AI agents begin automating financial decisions, one challenge developers face frequently is that most onchain actions still execute without awareness of network conditions, leading to costly, inefficient transactions.
Today, we’re introducing the Etherscan Data Oracle, an open-source integration built on Newton Protocol that connects Etherscan’s real-time gas and network data with programmable transaction guardrails.
Bringing Etherscan Data into Newton Protocol
The Etherscan Data Oracle connects Etherscan’s Gas Tracker API to Newton Protocol’s decentralized policy engine, allowing developers to set pre-execution conditions that optimize cost and prevent unnecessary transaction failures.
With a few lines of configuration, developers can create policies that:
Execute a transaction only when gas prices fall below a defined threshold.Delay or block transactions during periods of high congestion.Trigger a smart agent to rebroadcast or re-price transactions as network demand shifts.
Each check runs through Newton Protocol’s decentralized operator network, evaluating Etherscan data off the execution chain, verifying it for integrity, and anchoring an attestation onchain for auditability.
Example Use Cases
The Etherscan Data Oracle includes gas fee data, enabling developers to enforce cost and efficiency rules such as executing transactions only when gas prices fall below a set threshold or delaying actions during network congestion.
But this is just the starting point. Developers can easily extend or customize their own policies using other Etherscan APIs or any external data source to power richer, data-informed guardrails. Examples include:
Contract and token checks: Only interact with approved smart contracts and wallets with a minimum balance.Transaction history and risk: Block transactions with wallet addresses that have suspicious transaction patterns.Counterparty and address risk: Use Etherscan’s address labeling (e.g., exchanges, bridges, mixers) to automatically allow or block interactions with specific counterparties based on their risk profile.Dynamic logic: Combine gas data with fiat price feeds, oracles, or offchain APIs to control execution timing, fees or asset exposure.
Why Newton Protocol Is Different
Most automation systems execute transactions blindly or embed static logic in smart contracts, making them rigid and opaque. Newton Protocol separates policy enforcement from execution, creating a programmable layer that is:
Modular: Define once, apply across contracts, chains, and agents.Composable: Combine onchain and offchain data for adaptive transaction logic.Updatable: Adjust thresholds or rules without redeploying contracts.Verifiable: Every policy evaluation generates a cryptographic attestation visible on Newton Explorer.Credibly Neutral: Enforcement runs through a decentralized operator network secured by EigenLayer restaking.
Newton Protocol turns automation and compliance controls into code, giving lean teams the efficiency and assurance typically reserved for institutions with full risk and compliance operations.

Jak více botů a burner účtů zaplavuje online platformy, vývojáři potřebují spolehlivý způsob, jak rozlišit legitimní uživatele od jednorázových účtů a spamu před tím, než transakce nebo úkol postoupí dál.
Proto jsme se spojili s týmem Neynar, abychom vybudovali Neynar Farcaster Data Oracle, open-source implementaci kompatibilní s Newton Protocol, která umožňuje vývojářům ověřovat legitimitu uživatelů Farcaster prostřednictvím programovatelných politik před provedením transakcí. To dává aplikacím a agentům lehký způsob, jak vynucovat požadavky na důvěru, aniž by se spoléhali na křehké, úrovňové kontroly aplikací.

Ve rychle se měnícím světě DeFi jsou blockchainové transakce navrženy jako nevratné. Jakmile jsou provedeny, není žádné tlačítko pro vrácení zpět. Tato konečnost je jak silnou, tak slabou stránkou - zejména při práci s vysoce hodnotnými aktivy, automatizovaným obchodováním, reálnými aktivy (RWA), stabilními mincemi a stále více autonomními AI agenty operujícími na blockchainu.
Newton Protocol se s tímto problémem vypořádává čelem tím, že zavádí výkonnou, programovatelnou vrstvu rizikových kontrol, které fungují před tím, než je jakákoliv transakce dokončena na blockchainu.

As the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act (CLARITY Act) moves through the legislative process, builders face a new reality: regulatory compliance is no longer a "wait and see" game; it’s a core technical requirement. While the draft bill provides the first comprehensive federal framework for digital assets, it also introduces specific operational hurdles for compliance and risk management that traditional smart contracts and frontends aren't equipped to handle on their own.
This article breaks down key proposals of the CLARITY Act that impact crypto developers and institutions, as well as how Newton Protocol serves as the technical "missing link" to enable compliance with these new requirements.
1. Protocols & Tokens: The Decentralization "Graduation"
The bill moves tokens from the strict oversight of the SEC to the more flexible oversight of the CFTC once they reach a certain level of decentralization.
Problem: To "graduate," a protocol must prove it is not under the unilateral authority of its founders. However, most protocols today keep "emergency brake" powers or retroactive risk management tools in the hands of the dev team to prevent hacks or comply with sanctions.Solution: Instead of the founders holding the "keys" to block a transaction, Newton Protocol automatically enforces policies before transactions happen based on preset rules through its decentralized operator network.Result: You can truthfully certify that no single person has the power to alter the system, enabling decentralization while enforcing protections that keep protocols and users safe.
2. RWAs & Stablecoins: The "Equivalence" Standard
If you are tokenizing real-world assets (like bonds or real estate), the bill requires you to prove that the digital version has the exact same legal rights and obligations as the paper version.
Problem: Paper assets can have complex rules: only accredited investors can buy them, they can't be sold in certain countries, and they require tax reporting. If a token can be sent to a random wallet that hasn't met these rules, the "equivalence" is broken, and the issuer may be liable for misrepresentation.Solution: These "paper rules" can be encoded as enforceable logic into custom Newton Policies, without overloading the smart contract with such complexity. For example, you can enforce that the buyer's credentials and the jurisdiction of the trade are checked before the transaction is allowed to settle onchain.Result: You aren't just promising that your token follows the law; you are using Newton Protocol to make it mathematically impossible for the token to move in a way that violates its legal "paper" counterpart.
3. Wallets & Apps: The "Application Layer" Guardrails
The bill identifies a new legal category called the Application Layer (the websites and apps we use to talk to blockchains). These apps may be legally required to screen out sanctioned actors and illicit finance.
Problem: Usually, apps block certain IP addresses or wallet addresses on their website’s frontend, or retroactively freeze accounts and funds manually. However, a user can easily bypass these offchain blocks by using a different website or by directly calling the app’s smart contract execution functions onchain. If the illicit trade happens, the app owner could still be held responsible.Solution: Newton Protocol moves the screening logic enforcement from the website’s frontend into the smart contract’s execution onchain, which cannot be bypassed. This compliance logic is composable and reusable across the broader blockchain ecosystem, so applications will not need to duplicate the implementation effort.Result: No matter which app or wallet a person uses, the transaction won't settle unless it passes the risk checks required by the law. This provides a bulletproof defense for app developers.
4. Banks & Custodians: Institutional "Safety and Soundness”
The bill finally gives banks a clear green light to hold and trade crypto, but it warns that regulators can shut them down if their activities are "unsafe or unsound."
Problem: Banks and custodians need to know whose crypto transactions they are enabling; otherwise, they cannot stop a sanctioned or fraudulent transaction. By default, transactors on permissionless blockchains are anonymous, making crypto inherently "unsafe or unsound" for regulated financial institutions.Solution: Newton Protocol integrates seamlessly with data providers like Veriff, Persona and Range, allowing institutions to build KYC, AML and risk management rules into the smart contract layer so non-compliant transactions are prevented.Result: Banks can manage their risk exposure and satisfy regulatory requirements to prevent "unsafe or unsound" transactions, even on open, liquid blockchains.
How Newton Protocol Can Help
Newton Protocol enables developers and institutions to comply with the standards of the CLARITY Act without overhauling their existing UX or codebase.
