Projects in the market love to boast—daily active users in the tens of thousands, trading volumes in the billions, these numbers are everywhere. But a closer look reveals that many are just playing themselves, creating false prosperity through fake activity. The true test of a project's vitality is simple—actual usage and a continuously growing user base.

Recently, an AI oracle project announced some data: on December 29th, they recorded 2 million calls and 2 million data validations. At first glance, it doesn't seem that impressive, but digging deeper makes it interesting.

These 2 million calls weren't just made up out of thin air. Their OaaS service was just launching—Base went live on December 26th, BNB Chain on the 28th, Solana on the 30th. In other words, these 2 million calls were accumulated over just one or two months. Averaged daily, that's tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of calls. For an early-stage oracle project, this usage density is already quite significant.

But what's even more valuable isn't just this number—it's who is using it. The project clearly states that over 100 AI agents are continuously calling their service. This logic is worth pondering.

AI agents calling the oracle isn't just for fun. They need data to make decisions—trading, risk assessment, position management—all involving real money. If the data is inaccurate or delayed, the AI's decisions will be wrong, leading directly to losses. Therefore, AI agents demand extremely high data quality—not just high, but very high.

Having over 100 AI agents consistently using the same oracle service indicates what? It shows that the project's data is indeed reliable. This isn't just a marketing story; it's a market vote with real feet. Each call by these AI agents is a real-money test of whether the oracle is trustworthy. If it fails, they'll switch to another.

Compared to projects that desperately showcase daily active users or trading volume, this kind of real-world usage scenario is more convincing. Because anyone can talk about numbers, but projects that are long-term used by professional users—including high-demand users like AI agents—say everything.

This is the real vote with your feet. Over 100 AI agents speak with real money, more convincing than any numbers.

This is the real adoption. Over 100 AI agents voting with their feet is much better than just bragging. --- Over 100 AI agents are continuously using it, which proves the data is indeed reliable, unlike those who play with their own projects. --- Ah, finally someone is digging into this. This perspective is indeed worth paying attention to. --- If AI agents encounter problems, they will directly incur losses, so they won't use them recklessly. I respect this logic. --- Yes, yes, real users are much more honest than daily active user numbers. --- In just a month or two, 2 million calls, this growth rate is indeed impressive. --- The key is that over 100 professional users are using it. The trust behind this cannot be bought with marketing. --- Well said. Anyone can make up numbers, but real scenarios reveal the truth. --- This oracle's reliability is indeed guaranteed, and some people are verifying it with real money.

Over 100 AI agents are voting with real money, and their credibility surpasses the daily active user numbers that are just hype. --- Data can be bought with money, but trust cannot. Understand? --- Finally, a project dares to speak with real scenarios, unlike some trash that floods the headlines every day. --- Wait, does this mean AI agents are actually endorsing the project? That's interesting. --- True practicality is the best marketing; nothing beats it. --- Oracles can't tolerate any falsehoods. If AI agents make mistakes, they suffer direct losses. No wonder they are so picky. --- Honestly, being used continuously by over a hundred AI agents shows a level of trust that projects relying on hype can never achieve. --- This is real user retention, not the kind of fake daily active users inflated by incentives.

Wow, I finally see someone telling the truth. I'm really exhausted from listening to those projects hype their numbers. Over 100 AI agents continuously using their services—that's what real credibility looks like, much more reliable than daily active users in the millions. This is the core way to verify whether a product itself has vitality; voting with your feet is the ultimate truth. Only with quality data can it last this long; otherwise, it would have been replaced long ago. I’ve figured out this logic. Basically, it’s about who is truly being used, not who boasts the loudest. The market will ultimately choose.
