Recently, I've been paying attention to the oracle track and found that many people only focus on how on-chain applications are used and their user experience, but rarely think about where the data comes from and whether it is accurate. In fact, the reliability of data sources is often a severely overlooked link.

Some projects are working on the data layer, focusing on creating a stable, transparent, and verifiable information flow. This may seem less glamorous than the application layer, but for the entire ecosystem, it is actually the most fundamental and critical part. DeFi needs it, RWA needs it, and the future integration of AI+Crypto also depends on it.

Instead of chasing hot trends, it's better to recognize the long-term value of such infrastructure projects. As application scenarios become more diverse, the actual role of this data support layer will be felt by more and more users. In the short term, it may seem uneventful, but this is precisely where the most discerning eyes are tested.

In terms of market, after a rise, it has entered a sideways adjustment, and there is still a small possibility of a short-term bullish trend.

Data sources are indeed often overlooked; everyone is focused on application experience, but infrastructure is the real life or death line. That's right, taking no action in the short term doesn't mean it's worthless; this is where true insight is tested. I'm also observing the oracle space; it feels like mining—seemingly insignificant but indispensable. Infrastructure is always underestimated; only when it's truly needed do you realize you should have gotten on board earlier. Data reliability = lifeline, it really hit home for me.

Data sources are indeed easy to overlook, but once there's a problem, the entire system collapses... Someone should have spoken up about this a long time ago.

Data sources have indeed been overlooked, but honestly, there are very few reliable oracle projects. --- Infrastructure is always the most profitable, but no one is willing to wait. --- Sideways adjustment? I think this is a sign of a washout before a rally. --- Oracles are like fixing the sewer system; no one finds it sexy, but without it, nothing can run smoothly. --- The question is, are the data really accurate, or is it just the same old story with a different coat? --- Agreed, short-term calm is the true test of patience. --- RWA definitely needs reliable data; right now, it's a mixed bag. --- Another underestimated track; you'll regret it once it becomes famous.

To be honest, data is the real bottleneck, but most people really can't understand it. Whether the data source is reliable directly determines the life and death of the entire chain, yet everyone is still debating whether the UI is user-friendly. That's why foundational infrastructure projects are always underestimated; they don't make quick money, so no one pays attention. However, this sideways trading period is actually a good opportunity to build positions. In the long run, oracles are definitely a necessity.

The data source has indeed been underestimated; everyone is thinking about quick doubling, but who really cares if the data is accurate? Infrastructure may sound unsexy, but if it crashes, it crashes together—that's the scariest part. Wait, is the oracle still sideways now? I thought it had already dropped through. Only true geniuses would quietly focus on these boring things. Honestly, it still depends on who can make the data as transparent as possible; everything else is just talk.
