DIA crypto up 160% in 3 days. Rising crypto and Ethereum prices, mainnet staking, and the oracle grants program are driving demand.
The past three days have been eventful. First, Donald Trump signed the GENIUS Act into law in the United States. Second, BlackRock applied with the SEC to allow staking of its spot Ethereum ETFs. Stablecoins are a key part of crypto, particularly Ethereum.
On the other hand, staking for spot Ethereum ETF issuers would open new avenues for institutions to generate substantial profits. These developments are massive for protocols anchoring Ethereum, facilitating trade, and enabling smart contracts to perform even better.
While Chainlink is widely known, there is an alternative: DIA, an on-chain oracle provider that allows smart contracts to execute with up-to-date, tamper-proof external data.

Over the weekend, DIA crypto was among the top performers, rising with the crypto and Ethereum tide to post a massive 160% gain in three days. The surge was impressive, outperforming some of the top Solana meme coins. Not only did DIA break above key resistance levels, but the upward movement was accompanied by massive trading volumes, indicating strong interest from traders and investors.
From the daily chart, the uptrend remains. With DIA crypto trading above key resistance levels and, specifically, Q2 2025 highs, the path of least resistance is upward. Traders are optimistic, with some on X projecting DIA to soar 10X in a move that would easily surpass December 2024 highs, placing DIA among the best cryptos to buy in 2025.
While DIA could be rising because the entire industry is rallying, with Ethereum reviving demand and lifting ERC-20 tokens, DIA developers have been actively working. Since launching in 2018, it has been a rollercoaster for DIA as a project, and token holders have endured periods of high volatility.
What’s special about DIA is that it sources first-party data directly from 90 markets, supporting price feeds for more than 3,000 tokens. Additionally, its layer-2 network, Lasternet, ensures that trustless and verifiable data is delivered to over 20 platforms, including Avalanche and Polkadot.

In its mission to be the go-to hub for financial data powering DeFi protocols across multiple chains, DIA has been building and incentivizing users and token holders. In late June, it rolled out its mainnet staking program, releasing 2 million DIA to secure the Lasernet layer-2 on Ethereum.
Staking rewards are tied to Oracle usage, creating a virtuous cycle since the same rewards cover Oracle fees for developers. According to Zygis Marazas, Head of Product at DIA, staking on layer-2 isn’t just about yield but also about “utility and alignment.” Since the program’s release, DIA crypto rose 25%, building a solid base for the surge over the weekend.
DIA also launched an Oracle Grants Program alongside staking. The goal is to offer developers free access to its Lumina oracle stack for up to 12 months across 15 blockchains, including Arbitrum and Avalanche. Notably, the pilot on Arbitrum is backed by a 30,000 ARB grant. The program has been positively received, with a user on X calling it a “game-changer” that could spark development on supported chains with DIA powering data sources.

Furthermore, DIA has been striking strategic partnerships. In recent months, they have actively worked with major blockchains and dApps. Notably, they have a deal with Polkadot, where DIA powers some of its DEX platforms like Hydration and Bifrost.

They also joined forces with Mafia AI, a platform by Chedda Finance, which will see DIA oracles power the protocol’s AI-driven DeFi products.
