When oracles are no longer just data carriers, but have learned to use AI to "teach" data and add anti-counterfeiting labels, the last trust gap between blockchain and the real world is quietly being bridged by a brand new infrastructure.
At the intersection of the two hottest narratives in the crypto world in 2025—Artificial Intelligence (AI) and the tokenization of Real World Assets (RWA)—a crucial infrastructure challenge emerges: how to ensure that off-chain data obtained by on-chain smart contracts is real-time, authentic, and tamper-proof? Traditional oracle solutions have proven inadequate in dealing with non-standardized complex data, while a decentralized oracle network named APRO (@APRO-Oracle), centered on "AI enhancement," is attempting to redefine the standards for data value transfer.
APRO is not just an oracle; it positions itself as the 'verifiable data backbone' for the next generation of blockchain. With the technical background of having secured investments from top institutions like Polychain Capital and Franklin Templeton, and its early inroads into the Bitcoin ecosystem and BNB Chain, APRO is transforming the over 40 blockchains and more than 1400 data sources it supports into key drivers for the operation of prediction markets, AI agents, and the trillion-dollar RWA market.

Investors should carefully evaluate.
02 Project Deep Dive: From 'Data Transportation' to 'Cognitive Element' Paradigm Revolution
APRO's core competitiveness lies in its ability to surpass the passive data supply model of traditional oracles, building a proactive, intelligent, and secure 'perception-verification-cognition' closed-loop architecture.
AI-enhanced verification mechanism: Adding 'anti-counterfeiting lessons' to the data
The 'AI Oracle' of APRO is the heart of its technical architecture. It is not merely aggregating prices; it deeply processes raw data:
1. Cryptographic rights confirmation: First, use technologies such as timestamps and digital signatures to assign an unalterable 'birth certificate' to the data.
2. Semantic analysis and purification: Then, through intelligent semantic analysis, transform the messy unstructured data (such as social media sentiment, news events) into 'standardized knowledge cards' that AI agents can directly understand, while automatically filtering out junk information.
3. Output verifiable data packets: The final output is high-fidelity data packets with verifiable sources and timeliness markers, making AI decisions based on this both intelligent and compliant.
Ecological support designed for next-generation applications
APRO's strategic layout accurately positions itself in three of the fastest-growing tracks:
· Bitcoin ecosystem: APRO is the first network to provide professional oracle services for Bitcoin Lightning Network, RGB++, Runes, and other native protocols, filling a key gap in the BTCFi ecosystem.
· AI agent economy: APRO independently developed ATTPs (Agent Text Transmission Security Protocol), the world's first blockchain-based AI data transmission protocol. Just as HTTPS provides a security layer for the internet, it offers tamper-proof, verifiable data transmission guarantees for interactions between AI agents, and has been integrated into multiple AI frameworks like DeepSeek and Swarms.
· RWA and prediction markets: For complex real asset data such as stocks and commodities, APRO's AI verification mechanism ensures the integrity and authenticity of the data, which is crucial for prediction markets and RWA tokenization in areas with zero compromise on data.
Strong network foundation and institutional endorsement
APRO has built a solid technical and capital foundation. The network supports over 40 blockchains and offers more than 1400 data sources. The project secured $3 million in seed funding from Polychain Capital and Franklin Templeton in 2024, and completed a new round of strategic financing led by YZi Labs, with participation from Gate Labs, WAGMI Venture, etc., in October 2025. The funds will be used specifically for expanding oracle facilities in the prediction market and AI fields.
03 Popular Science Guide: How do Oracles Work? Why is APRO a 'necessity'?
Oracles: The 'senses' and 'messengers' of blockchain
Smart contracts can be understood as super lawyers living in a closed sterile room (blockchain) that strictly enforce code laws but know nothing about the outside world (off-chain). Oracles are their 'messengers', responsible for securely and accurately delivering external information (such as weather data, match results, stock prices) to trigger contract execution (such as insurance payments, settlement predictions). Without oracles, the vast majority of practical DeFi, insurance, and supply chain finance applications cannot be realized.
APRO's innovation: From 'megaphone' to 'analyst'
Traditional oracles are like 'megaphones', mainly addressing the question of 'whether data exists', but struggle to distinguish the authenticity and connotation of the data. In contrast, APRO's 'AI Oracle' plays the role of an 'analyst':
· Facing issues: An AI trading agent needs to make decisions based on the news of 'a company releasing an unexpectedly good earnings report', but there may be false or outdated reports online.
· APRO's workflow:
1. Multi-source fetching: Simultaneously fetch information from multiple authoritative financial media and exchange announcements.
2. AI verification: Natural language processing models analyze content consistency to confirm the authenticity of financial reports; simultaneously check data timestamps to ensure they are the latest.
3. Secure delivery: Using the ATTPs protocol, securely transmit this 'knowledge card' with a 'verified' label and precise timestamp to the AI agent.
4. Trustworthy decisions: AI agents make buy/sell decisions based on this high-trust data.
This process ensures that the entire journey from data source to smart contract or AI agent cognition is trustworthy, which is the cornerstone relied upon by complex financial applications and autonomous AI economies.
04 Ecological Frontier: Strategic Cooperation and Infrastructure Positioning Battle
APRO's ecological expansion is rapid, embedding its technological foundation into the core scenarios of the Web3 future through a series of strategic partnerships.
Empowering the forefront exploration of AI and ZK integration
In March 2025, APRO reached a strategic cooperation with Zypher Network. Zypher Network is a network focused on zero-knowledge proof (ZK) computing. The combination of the two creates a clever chemical reaction:
· APRO provides: verifiable real-world data (such as real-time Bitcoin prices) and secure data transmission (ATTPs).
· Zypher provides: ZK-based privacy computing and verification capabilities.
· Synergistic effects: This enables the development of 'trustless AI agents' that can handle sensitive data while protecting user privacy and ensuring verifiable computing processes. For example, an AI investment advisor built on this can generate verifiable investment recommendations based on trustworthy market data provided by APRO without disclosing user holding privacy.
Deeply cultivate mainstream public chains, capture ecological dividends
APRO is a key infrastructure partner for AI and DeFi ecosystems on the BNB Chain. It was invited to participate in the BNB Chain AI hackathon, and its low-cost and efficient data processing capabilities are seen as an ideal choice to support the large-scale implementation of AI agent applications on the BNB Chain. In addition, APRO has also adapted to mainstream high-performance chains such as Solana, Aptos, and Base, demonstrating excellent cross-chain compatibility, providing a unified real-world view for multi-chain applications.
Roadmap focus: Deepening vertical fields, advancing decentralization
According to the plan, APRO will continue to focus resources on the two verticals of prediction markets and RWA, which have the most stringent requirements for data integrity. At the same time, the team plans to launch user participation modules and open node programs to further promote decentralized governance of the network, allowing the community to participate more deeply in ecological co-construction and security maintenance.

In an era where data is assets, what APRO builds is far more than just a data transmission pipeline. Through AI empowerment, it is forging a set of 'verifiable data standards' prepared for the next generation of decentralized worlds. From ensuring the secure operation of DeFi in the Bitcoin ecosystem, to becoming the trusted 'senses' for thousands of AI agents, and providing a reality anchor for trillion-scale RWA assets on the chain, APRO's ambition is to become a trusted intermediary layer connecting the atomic world and the digital world.
Its value logic lies not in simply replicating an oracle, but in redefining the value transfer link from source to application. As more and more prediction markets rely on its data to determine outcomes, as complex RWA transactions are achieved through its verification, and as autonomous AI economies are built on the ATTPs protocol, what $AT carries will be the infrastructure value of a new data economic paradigm. This path is filled with technical challenges and market competition, but APRO has already secured a favorable position in this critical positioning battle with a clear vision and solid initial results.
