The market price is hovering around $0.12, and technically, it seems to be probing the bottom. However, I believe that just looking at the K-line chart to analyze APRO is like judging how far a car can go based solely on the sound of its engine; it may overlook something more critical—what's actually in its fuel tank: 'air' or 'real fuel.'
Recently, everyone in the community has been pondering the matter of 'node elections.' This is not an ordinary governance vote; it might be establishing a tangible 'value bottom' for $AT.
Most projects' node rewards are 'printing money dividends': new coins are issued to you, and if the coin price drops, it means all efforts were in vain. But APRO's approach is different; its node earnings target real business profit sharing. This means that node operators are betting not on a skyrocketing coin price, but on whether APRO's B-end business of 'data trading' can grow. As long as its oracle services (especially those provided for the Bitcoin ecosystem and RWA business) become increasingly widespread, this profit pool will become deeper. This model transforms staking from a 'fool's game' into 'value investment.'
Therefore, the current 'market bottom' is drawn by emotions and funds, and it can change at any time. However, the logic of the 'value bottom' depends on the ability of its AI verification data, how many orders it has signed with Bitcoin L2s, and how many new scenarios the AI oracle systems developed with partners like Dephy can open up. If these fundamentals are solid, the price at this position is somewhat like a spring; the tighter it is compressed, the more powerful the rebound may be.
Of course, the conversation has two sides. In the short term, factors like unlocking and overall market sentiment that contribute to the 'market bottom' can still stir things up. The total supply of $AT is 1 billion, with only 230 million in circulation, and the future release pace is a variable that needs to be closely monitored.
To summarize: If you are looking to make a short-term play based on the buying power and locking effects that node elections might bring, you need to keep a close eye on the rules and community enthusiasm. But if you believe that the model of 'supporting token value with real business income' can work in Web3, then perhaps you can spend more time studying how much APRO has locked in the Bitcoin ecosystem and the trillion-dollar RWA sector.
After all, the best investment might be when the market is still studying the 'color of the shell' while you understand that its internal 'gears' have already begun to mesh.
