Bitcoin is moving sideways, and the copycats are secretly shifting. But if you really check the sector rotation chart, the oracle sector is as cold as an ice cellar. So funds are starting to look at an old face that has fallen into dust—API3.

This guy dropped from $10 all the way down to $0.3, a 96% decline, with not even a decent breath. But in recent days, it seems to have quietly awakened.

The market finally shows some movement

In the past 12 hours, API3 rose from 0.3036 to 0.3152, up 3.8%. This small increase isn’t much, but the trading volume has kept up—hourly trading volume repeatedly broke through 200k USDT, peaking near 490k USDT. EMA(7) also firmly stands above EMA(25) and EMA(99), forming a short-term bullish structure.

Support is around 0.3036, resistance temporarily at 0.3180 to 0.3240. Break through, and space opens up; fail to break, and it’s grind time.

Key logic: no one has touched the oracle track yet

In this round of copycat pump, ORDI surged 190% in one day, RAVE shot up 6,000% in a week—all coins squeezed out from the cracks of the floor. Funds are betting on “deep dips, small market cap, clean chips.”

API3 has two advantages:

1. It’s been squeezed out—dropping from $10 to $0.3, the bubble has been mostly deflated.

2. The oracle sector hasn’t been rotated yet. Chainlink dominates but can’t move the market, so funds are looking for breakthroughs. API3, with its small market cap and differentiated approach, is more likely to become a target.

Technically, it’s not just air—this January, it launched the ZK-Rollup-based OEV network, then deployed on Arbitrum Orbit. Moonwell governance also voted to replace Chainlink with its OEV data source. But the market was too cold before, so no one paid attention.

But is the copycat season really here?

Copycat projects’ total market cap halved, trading volume plummeted, and Bitcoin’s market share still stays above 57%. Now, more of the capital is just riding the oversold coins, not a full bloom.

API3’s current position is ambiguous: it’s been squeezed out, the sector isn’t moving, but volume is short-term increasing—more fundamental support than purely sentiment-driven coins. There are disagreements—half the community is bullish, half bearish, that’s always the case at the bottom.

Whether it can truly rally depends on two things:

First, whether Bitcoin can hold steady without crashing.

Second, whether funds will flow into the oracle niche.

Position is set, signals are there, now it’s just a matter of which way the wind blows. $API3 ‌#山寨币强势反弹
