Recently, every night before going to bed, I check out projects, and I happened to come across Oracler @OraclerAI, because I usually pay close attention to AI projects. I had seen a previous introduction by Bird Brother, so I went to learn more!
I think it's quite good, so I might as well write it down while I’m researching it and chat with everyone, exchanging ideas!
1. What is the project actually doing?
In simple terms, Oracler is a tool that provides off-chain data for blockchain smart contracts, belonging to the oracle sector. However, unlike traditional oracles, they have integrated AI algorithms, claiming to primarily solve issues of data latency, accuracy, and trust costs.
For example, if a certain DeFi protocol needs to obtain real-time cryptocurrency prices to trigger a liquidation mechanism, Oracler's node network will use an AI-optimized data processing flow to provide more accurate and faster data to the contract, which sounds like giving blockchain applications an 'intelligent eye'.
From a technical perspective, they use a decentralized node network where multiple nodes verify data, somewhat similar to the decentralization logic of blockchain itself, making it quite resistant to censorship. The consensus mechanism is still being optimized; the official team mentioned they are adjusting node consensus and data verification processes lately, possibly to enhance stability, since if the oracle has data issues, downstream applications could face problems.
2. Are the product functions practical?
I took a quick look at their official website, and they promote three core features:
1. Real-time token information: this integrates and displays data like price and trading volume, making it easy for users to quickly observe market dynamics. Many platforms offer this feature, but Oracler emphasizes the real-time and accuracy of data, which may be more useful for high-frequency traders.
2. Tracking KOLs and Smart Money: this is interesting as it helps users monitor the opinions of industry influencers and the flow of large funds. For example, if a KOL you follow mentions a certain coin positively on Twitter, or if smart money is shifting positions on-chain, the system might filter this information and push it to you, saving you the trouble of scouring the internet for news. This is suitable for retail investors who want to follow trends.
3. Custom trading across all platforms: supports customization of DeFi trading parameters, somewhat like bringing the operational experience of centralized exchanges to the blockchain, which may be friendlier for users accustomed to centralized exchanges, as DeFi can sometimes be overly complicated and have high entry barriers.
3. Recommendation incentive program: can you really earn some pocket money?
Recently, their promoted recommendation mechanism is quite eye-catching; simply put, it’s 'invite and earn incentives', divided into four levels — bronze level earns 20% of transaction fee sharing, while the highest platinum level can earn up to 40%. Users who are referred can also enjoy a 10% discount on service fees, which counts as a two-way incentive.
Here are a few points to clarify:
Effective referrer threshold: it's not enough just to get someone to register; their actual trading volume in the current trading season must exceed 1,000 USD for it to be 'effective' — real trading generates real transactions, which filters out a lot of 'zombie accounts' and serves to ensure ecological activity.
Data transparency and traceability: there’s a dedicated backend for referrers where you can see in real-time how many people you’ve referred, how much incentive money you’ve earned, and the trading volume of your referrals, with each piece of data clearly displayed, so you don’t have to worry about the platform engaging in dark box operations; this is quite user-friendly.
Single-level referral logic: although the official team hasn’t emphasized the structure, based on the rules, incentives mainly come from 'transaction sharing of directly referred users', meaning it follows a simple one-level referral model without complex hierarchical stacking, which is simpler and more transparent compared to some mechanisms with multi-layer structures and offers better compliance assurance.
To be honest, this model is not new in the crypto space; many exchanges have similar invitation incentives, but Oracler’s 40% share is indeed quite high and suitable for those who have community resources or friends who trade cryptocurrencies. However, I must remind you: crypto trading itself is quite volatile, so it’s best to let your friends research the product logic clearly before bringing them in; the connections you have are more valuable than that little money.

Let's take a look at the token economy and market performance.
Their token is $ORC, with a total supply nearing 1 trillion. This number sounds quite intimidating, doesn't it? However, the current circulating market value is about over 900 million USD, which is not particularly high in the crypto space. In simple terms, this token primarily has two uses: governance of the ecosystem and payment of transaction fees — nodes earn tokens for processing data requests, and users pay service fees with tokens, which follows a fairly typical application token logic.
The token was issued in January 2025, so it's only been about half a year, which is definitely in the early stage. The market fluctuations for such projects can be quite significant, but the benefit is that there is still room for imagination for early entrants. If you're interested, you can keep an eye on it, but be sure to have a risk management plan, because with new coins, the ups and downs can be drastic.
To be honest, @OraclerAI has a clear positioning, combining AI and oracle technology, perfectly tapping into the recent hot concepts of DePIN and AI infrastructure within the Solana ecosystem. Technically, there are indeed some new elements, but whether it can succeed still depends on whether users can truly utilize it and whether the node network can be established — after all, in decentralized projects, users and nodes are like two wheels of a car; without either, it can't run.
Their recommendation mechanism is suitable for friends who have some traffic and want to earn a little pocket money, but the prerequisite is that you must have used it yourself and find it decent. There’s no need to push it onto others just for small rewards; it's not worth harming your connections for a trivial amount.
Specifically, how different people view this:
If you usually trade cryptocurrencies and want a tool to assist with data analysis and market trend monitoring, their free features are worth trying out first; after all, it's free, and if you find it useful, you can dive deeper.
If you are involved in community management or are a KOL with a following, the high reward ratio of the recommendation mechanism can serve as a monetization channel, but remember to clearly explain the project logic to your followers in advance to avoid 'information asymmetry harvesting'.
If you are a developer, you might be more concerned about how well their API can integrate and what the cost is to become a node — the official team is currently actively trying to attract developers, and you might be able to ride the early cooperation benefits.
Lastly, I want to say that projects in the crypto space change like summer thunderstorms; things can change rapidly. The information I write about might be outdated in a couple of months. I recommend that if you want to learn more, go directly to the official website to read the white paper and check the latest announcements; don't just listen to others.
Whether it's investment or participation, first figure out the ins and outs of the project!
