Every great project starts with a problem. For APRO, that problem was the "fragility" of data in the early Web3 era. The history of APRO isn't just a timeline of price action; it’s a story of shifting from basic data feeds to a sophisticated, AI-driven "nervous system" for the entire blockchain industry
2024: The Genesis of Oracle 3.0
AFRO was founded in early 2024 by a team of engineers and system designers who were tired of seeing DeFi protocols fail due to oracle "hiccups"—lagging prices and manipulated feeds.
The Mission: To create an oracle that doesn't just relay data, but understands it.
The Focus: While most oracles started on Ethereum, APRO initially focused on the Bitcoin ecosystem (supporting RGB++ and Runes) before rapidly expanding to over 40 chains, including BNB Chain and Solana.
2025: The Breakout Year
2025 marked the transition from a
Strategic Funding: APRO secured $5.5M in funding from giants like Polychain Capital, Franklin Templeton, and YZi Labs.
The "A PRO" Branding: A major turning point occurred when former Binance CEO CZ engaged with their naming campaign, interpreting "APRO" as "A PRO"—a nod to the team's professional and technical excellence.
Token Generation Event (TGE): On October 24, 2025, the $AT token officially launched via Binance Alpha, followed by a massive HODLer airdrop and spot listing on November 27
Why APRO is Different (The Architecture)
The project’s history is built on its unique Dual-Layer architecture:
Submitter Layer: AI-powered nodes that can read unstructured data (like PDF contracts or satellite images).
Verdict Layer: An arbitration system where LLM-powered agents resolve data conflicts before they ever hit the blockchain.
Looking Ahead: 2026 and Beyond
As of today, APRO is moving into Phase 2 of its roadmap, focusing on Legal & Logistics integration. This means APRO isn't just tracking the price of Bitcoin anymore—it's verifying the authenticity of real-world assets (RWA) and powering the next generation of AI-driven decentralized applications.
