Prosper Acquires 7,000 ASIC Miners from BITMAIN, Completes Strategic Funding Round

PROS token holders benefit from BITMAIN's cutting-edge products, further distinguishing Prosper as the premier Web3 Bitcoin mining protocol.

Dubai, United Arab Emirates – December 13th, 2024 – Prosper, a decentralized protocol democratizing access to Bitcoin mining by tokenizing institutional-grade Bitcoin hashrate as omnichain real-world assets (RWA), today announced the acquisition of over 7,000 ASIC miners from BITMAIN and the successful closing of its strategic funding round.

Following the announcement of Prosper’s long-term partnership and hosting service agreement with BITMAIN, the world’s leading manufacturer of digital currency mining servers, this landmark purchase marks an instrumental step in Prosper’s mission to provide institutional-grade reliability to its mining ecosystem. By leveraging BITMAIN’s cutting-edge products, Prosper enhances the value delivered to its PROS token holders, further distinguishing itself as the premier Web3 Bitcoin mining protocol backed by leading industry players.

“Bitcoin brought about a fundamental shift in finance by democratizing an economic system in its entirety with blockchain technology. Prosper follows the footsteps of Bitcoin’s core ethos by democratizing access to Bitcoin hashrate, the underlying layer powering Bitcoin—through blockchain technology. This layer of community governance and ownership afforded by blockchain allows Prosper to scale its flywheel of both Bitcoin hashrate and treasury operations while simultaneously helping to ensure that the Bitcoin mining layer is sufficiently decentralized to maintain Bitcoin’s status as the most recognized digital reserve currency,” said Milton Lam, Prosper Advisory Council Member.

Prosper’s Latest Development

Strategic Round Closure: Strengthening the Bitcoin EcosystemIn addition to its BITMAIN partnership, Prosper announced the closure of its strategic funding round, which saw participation from prominent industry players and financial investors, including Metalpha, Waterdrip Capital, BIT Mining, and Satoshi Protocol. Earlier in October, Animoca Brands also disclosed its intention to purchase PROS tokens from the open market.

These investments demonstrate the strong confidence in Prosper’s vision of bridging institutional-grade Bitcoin mining power on-chain and its innovative approach to Bitcoin liquidity farming. The involvement of these strategic partners brings crucial industry expertise and networks to support Prosper’s operations as it scales.

Positioning Prosper for GrowthBy combining institutional-grade Bitcoin mining hashrate, a decentralized protocol design backed by strong fundamentals, and an extensive network of strategic partners, Prosper is well-positioned to solidify its status as the flagship decentralized Bitcoin mining protocol.
