To say something that might sound harsh, the vast majority of so-called "on-chain quantitative" strategies are essentially just improved versions of arbitrage scripts: monitoring price differences across a few exchanges, adjusting grid parameters, and if lucky, catching some volatility, but if unlucky, being directly swept away by a one-sided market. A truly systematic strategy requires a complete set of clean, stable, and sufficiently granular data backends, which is precisely the part that many retail developers find most challenging—not due to a lack of ideas, but because they lack the energy to connect all those messy interfaces. APRO operates at this level, effectively helping people "save the dirty work."
It consolidates price and volume data, order books, open contracts, funding rates, and liquidation distributions from CEX, DEX, and multi-chain assets into a standardized data structure, exposing it directly to the strategy side through the interface. For someone looking to advance from being a script player to a true strategy developer, this means shifting from 'writing crawling and cleaning scripts for weeks' to 'directly calling APIs and focusing on the model itself.'
Imagine you want to write a simple but decent multi-factor strategy: using price momentum, volume surges, funding rate deviations, on-chain leverage changes, and changes in smart money positions as several factors, while also wanting to refer to the clearing density curve provided by APRO during extreme market conditions to judge whether to reduce leverage.
If a single person tackles this combination alone, just assembling the data would be enough to drink a pot; but with an oracle network helping you lay the foundation, you can spend more time experimenting and optimizing. From an economic perspective, every strategy, every robot, and every automated position management tool has the potential to become a long-term 'invisible buyer' of $AT : they may not loudly call for longs or shorts, but they will continuously pay for data calls, historical sequence backtesting, and feature extraction.
As the developer ecosystem gradually thickens, APRO's data layer is no longer just a 'backend for protocols,' but will become a truly active 'strategy foundation.' Of course, all this imagination is predicated on APRO delivering a sufficiently impressive report card: integrity of data under extreme market conditions, reliability of anomaly filtering, and stability of latency distribution.
These things can't deceive people; anyone who has traded in real markets knows that any brief price feeding glitch will leave ugly scars on PnL. It is precisely this almost cruel test that gives oracles willing to immerse themselves in the quantitative circle a better chance to hone true skills over the long term.
