$PROS is tokenizing institutional-grade Bitcoin mining power as omnichain RWA and aiming to fully unlock the potential of the most decentralized cryptocurrency.
šĀ Thatās a wrap on #BitcoinMENA. What an incredible experience itās been to share our vision for $PROS, and we are more confident than ever to build a $PROS community as diehard as the $BTC one.
In a momentous development, Prosper has entered into a groundbreaking, long-term agreement with BITMAIN, the world's leading manufacturer of digital currency mining servers.
Under the partnership, BITMAIN and its affiliates will provide hosting services for Prosper's foundation-owned Bitcoin miners, bringing institutional-grade mining execution quality for the benefit of $PROS holders. The first batch of hashrate is expected to come online later today and accessible via Prosper's v1 web app.

The next evolution of $PROS is here as we have upgraded our token contract to integrate the OFT standard from @LayerZero_Core. The upgraded $PROS will be available for bridging both on the Prosper dApp as well as via @StargateFinance.
As we move to an omnichain solution, we're creating more opportunities, more connections, and more potential for our community within the Bitcoin and Web3 ecosystem.
LayerZero powers connectivity across 100+ blockchain networks, with over $50B+ in value transferred. Our integration expands the horizons for $PROS, enabling seamless movement and broader ecosystem reach.
This isn't just a token upgradeāit's the foundation for Prosper's next phase of growth.
ā¢ Following the PIP-4 vote, the $PROS token contract will be upgraded to the LayerZero OFT standard ā¢ This involves a 1:1 swap to the upgraded $PROS token ā¢ Migration period: starting 20 Jan - at least early March 2025
šĀ Holding $PROS in a self-custodial wallet?
ā¢ Use the swap portal on the Prosper dApp to swap to the upgraded token ā¢ Remember to account for gas fees for Ethereum and BNB Smart Chain
š¦Ā Using a centralized exchange?
ā¢ Token migration will happen automatically for holders with @binance @MEXC_Official @gate_io ā¢ (Expect a temporary deposit / withdrawal suspension)
āļøĀ Currently staking $PROS?
ā¢ Wait until the end of the current staking cycle (27 January) ā¢ Unstake and unbond your $PROS tokens, then swap them via the Prosper dApp
We are delighted to announce that all three of our major CEX partners - @binance @MEXC_Official @gate_io - will be supporting the upcoming $PROS token contract upgrade.
If you hold $PROS on one of these CEXs, thereās nothing you need to doāyour exchange will handle the upgrade swap process for you.
For each of these exchanges, deposit / withdrawal for the old $PROS token will be suspended on 20 January 2025 at 03:00 UTC as the exchanges begin the upgrade swap process. Be sure to pay attention to announcements from each respective exchange on when their swap process is complete and when deposit / withdrawal resumes (for the upgraded $PROS token only).

In Q4 2024, millions of dollars worth of live hashrate value and staked $PROS were locked into the protocol, with Prosper poised to become one of the top DeFi protocols on Binance Smart Chain (BSC) by Total Value Locked (TVL).
In 2025, we'll continue to grow Prosper'sĀ TVLĀ by bringing more hashrate online and encouraging more community participation and staking.
Prosper Playback āŖ - Growing the Prosper Community
In Q4 2024, we welcomed hundreds of thousands of community members across Telegram and X, and $PROS holders earned hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of rewards across various staking and airdrop campaigns.
In 2025, we'll continue to ramp up our community engagement through AMAs, interviews, and more.
Our community will also help to govern the protocol through additional Prosper Improvement Proposals (PIPs).
