APRO Oracle, the leading oracle in the Bitcoin ecosystem and one of the fastest-growing projects in the Web3 industry, is thrilled to announce the successful completion of a $3 million seed funding round. The round was led by Polychain Capital, Franklin Templeton, and ABCDE Capital, with participation from CMS Holdings, Comma3 Ventures, UTXO Ventures, Oak Grove Ventures, Presto Labs, and many more.

APRO Oracle is rapidly expanding its presence with cutting-edge products and services, aimed at bringing Bitcoin liquidity to emerging ecosystems. This funding marks a critical milestone in establishing the Oracle 3.0 industry standard and advancing the future of decentralized oracles.

APRO Oracle’s emergence fills a critical void in the rapidly evolving Bitcoin ecosystem, where specialized oracle services were previously absent. In just six months, APRO Oracle has expanded over 15 blockchains, and provided price feeds for over 140 assets, establishing itself as a key player in the industry.

APRO Oracle = Oracle 3.0, combining Bitcoin-level security with next-gen technology

As the fastest-growing oracle with the most extensive asset coverage and multi-chain integration within the Bitcoin ecosystem, APRO Oracle has introduced Oracle 3.0—a groundbreaking solution that merges Bitcoin-grade security with advanced technology. Its mission is to redefine the standards for decentralized oracles and drive innovation in the crypto industry to meet the growing demands of DeFi, GameFi, and other decentralized applications.

With Oracle 3.0’s unmatched security, stability, and rapid response capabilities, APRO Oracle is poised to drive Bitcoin liquidity for high-potential ecosystems, fueling significant growth.

Traditional oracle solutions often face significant challenges, including security, stability, and cost-efficiency. In response, APRO Oracle has rolled out a game-changing suite of oracle service that seamlessly supports all blockchains and decentralized applications. Its service packages extend beyond basic offerings, ensuring smooth ecosystem integration, exploring emerging ecosystems, and providing tailored R&D solutions.

APRO Oracle has introduced a diverse range of oracle product matrices, including support for Bitcoin L1, Bitcoin L2s, Ordinals, Runes Protocol, LST/LRT, Lightning Network, RGB/RGB++, EVM-compatible chains, Ton, and more. These offerings accelerate project development, enhance user experiences, and help projects unlock their full potential.

APRO Oracle’s Oracle 3.0 innovation leverages Babylon BTC Staking and Cosmos ABCI 2.0 for efficient and reliable data aggregation and computation. The two-layer architecture, consisting of an oracle chain and a decision layer powered by AVS, ensures high security and reliability through staking, slashing, and dispute resolution mechanisms. The scalable, UTXO-compatible design supports a range of decentralized applications, including cross-chain asset transfers, decentralized identities, privacy-preserving DeFi, and discrete log contracts (DLCs).

At APRO Oracle, the mission to redefine oracle services is driven by innovative data flows that facilitate valuable data exchange. In addition to core oracle services, APRO Oracle offers value-added products such as developer education, ecosystem events, research outputs, and community engagement initiatives—all designed to enhance the oracle ecosystem experience.
