In a perfect world, blockchains and smart contracts would have access to all of the world’s information, but the reality is far from perfect. Blockchains and their smart contracts are actually cut off from real-world data sources, and don’t have any idea what is occurring “off-chain”, hence the need for data oracles to make decentralized applications more useful.
