This new case study on @redstone_defi and @arbitrum Stylus caught my attention. In my opinion it shows the real practical impact of the technology.

Stylus lets developers build with languages like Rust, not just Solidity. This changes what’s possible onchain. For an oracle like RedStone, it directly tackles EVM limitations.

These limits include high costs for complex data and slow processing. Stylus solves this with its WebAssembly VM. It runs alongside the EVM but works very differently.

The results for RedStone are clear.

- A 34% reduction in base computational load.

- A 50% reduction in computation per feed.

- Support for more frequent, data rich updates.

I think the key takeaway is about new possibilities. Developers can use mature Rust tooling. They get faster execution and lower gas for complex logic.

This makes advanced applications like high frequency data feeds economically viable.

For builders, Stylus is more than an upgrade. It's a shift in design space. You can now build data heavy applications that were too expensive before.

Check out the full analysis to see how RedStone implemented this.
