Doubt on oracles

[sortega]

Hello all,

I've been reading the wiki section on contracts (https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Contracts#Example_4:_Using_external_state) and I have a question regarding the output signature you should add to use oracles. Are this transactions considered standard? Are propagated or rejected?

They are not currently considered standard. However, OP_RETURN <data> will be considered standard in the next version and there may be a way to recast the protocol to use that.
