UTXOracle

UTXOracle is a Bitcoin-native, exchange-free price oracle that calculates the market price of Bitcoin directly from the blockchain.

Unlike traditional oracles that rely on exchange APIs, UTXOracle identifies the most statistically probable BTC/USD exchange rate by analyzing recent transactions on-chain — no external price feeds required.

⚡ Pure Python. No dependencies. No assumptions. Just Bitcoin data.

🔍 How It Works

UTXOracle analyzes confirmed Bitcoin transactions and uses statistical clustering to isolate a "canonical" price point:

• Filters out coinbase, self-spends, and spam transactions.
• Focuses on economically meaningful outputs (within a dynamic BTC range).
• Calculates a volume-weighted median from clustered prices across a recent window of blocks.

The result is a Bitcoin price derived from actual usage, not speculative trading.

🧠 Why It Matters

• 🛑 Exchange Independence: Trust the chain, not custodians.
• 🔎 Transparency: Every price is reproducible from public block data.
• 🎯 On-Chain Signal: Derived from organic BTC/USD activity.
• 🐍 Minimalism: The core logic fits in a single, readable Python file.

📦 Getting Started

Clone the repo and run the reference script:

git clone https://github.com/Unbesteveable/UTXOracle.git
cd UTXOracle
python3 UTXOracle.py

This will connect to your local bitcoind node and print the current UTXOracle price.

Requirements:

• A running Bitcoin Core node (RPC enabled)
• Python 3.8+
