Prosper acquires 7,000 ASIC mining machines from BITMAIN and obtains strategic financing to promote the democratization of Bitcoin mining
Prosper is a decentralized protocol that democratizes Bitcoin mining by tokenizing institutional-grade Bitcoin hashrate as full-chain real assets (RWA). Today, Prosper announced the acquisition of over 7,000 ASIC miners from BITMAIN and the successful completion of its strategic financing.
With support from Metalpha, Waterdrip Capital, BIT Mining, Animoca Brands and many others, Prosper procured new ASIC miners from BITMAIN to introduce institutional-grade execution quality to its protocol.
Prosper aims to expand its underlying Bitcoin hashrate capacity, accelerate the flywheel effect of DAO-owned hashrate and Bitcoin asset library operations, while democratizing access to institutional-grade mining.
Following the announcement of a long-term partnership and escrow service agreement with BITMAIN, the world's leading digital currency mining machine manufacturer, this landmark purchase is a key step for Prosper to provide institutional-grade reliability to the mining ecosystem. By leveraging BITMAIN's cutting-edge products, Prosper improves the value delivery to PROS token holders while further consolidating its position as the leading Web3 Bitcoin mining protocol with the support of top industry players.
Milton Lam, a member of the Prosper Advisory Board, said, "Bitcoin has achieved the full democratization of the economic system through blockchain technology, bringing about fundamental changes in the financial field. Prosper has inherited the footsteps of Bitcoin's core concept and democratized the underlying power of Bitcoin computing power through blockchain technology. The community governance and ownership layer granted by blockchain not only enables Prosper to achieve flywheel expansion in Bitcoin computing power and asset library operations, but also helps to ensure that the Bitcoin mining layer is sufficiently decentralized to maintain Bitcoin's status as the most recognized digital reserve currency."
Prosper's latest progress
· 1 EH/s of computing power has been purchased and is ready to be fully launched (currently 250 PH/s are already in operation on Prosper's dApp).
· With a pipeline capacity of 170MW, the goal is to increase computing power by another 5 EH/s in the medium term.
· Since November, more than 2 BTC have been rewarded to PROS holders.
· More than 200 BTC backed, which will be allocated to the DAO by partners to unlock TVL opportunities for PROS holders.
Strategic Fundraising Completed: Strengthening the Bitcoin Ecosystem
In addition to the partnership with BITMAIN, Prosper announced the completion of a strategic funding round that attracted several well-known industry players and financial investors, including Metalpha, Waterdrip Capital, BIT Mining, and Satoshi Protocol. In October, Animoca Brands also stated that it planned to purchase PROS tokens from the open market.
These investments demonstrate the industry’s high recognition of Prosper’s vision to bring institutional-grade Bitcoin computing power to the chain and expand the ecosystem through an innovative Bitcoin liquidity mining model. The addition of strategic partners provides Prosper with critical industry expertise and network support to help it move forward steadily during its expansion.
Powering Prosper’s Growth
· Prosper’s token economics are uniquely designed to ensure that the hashrate per token will only increase, providing value-added benefits to PROS holders.
· Prosper’s DAO leverages a unique flywheel model that combines hashrate with Bitcoin treasury operations, governed by and for the benefit of PROS holders.
· Institutional-grade hashrate continuously generates Bitcoin, a portion of which is distributed as rewards to actively participating holders, and the remainder is deposited in the DAO treasury.
· Bitcoin in the DAO treasury can be used for TVL opportunities with ecosystem partners (such as Bitcoin L2), creating benefits for PROS holders and the DAO.
· As the value of the DAO treasury and the adoption of PROS grow, the protocol is able to further expand its base hashrate and increase its risk resistance.
By combining institutional-grade Bitcoin mining power, a decentralized protocol design backed by strong fundamentals, and an extensive network of strategic partners, Prosper is well-positioned to solidify its position as the flagship decentralized Bitcoin mining protocol.

Mixin has launched USTD-margined perpetual contracts, bringing derivative trading into the chat scene.
The privacy-focused crypto wallet Mixin announced today the launch of its U-based perpetual contract (a derivative priced in USDT). Unlike traditional exchanges, Mixin has taken a new approach by "liberating" derivative trading from isolated matching engines and embedding it into the instant messaging environment.
Users can directly open positions within the app with leverage of up to 200x, while sharing positions, discussing strategies, and copy trading within private communities. Trading, social interaction, and asset management are integrated into the same interface.
Based on its non-custodial architecture, Mixin has eliminated friction from the traditional onboarding process, allowing users to participate in perpetual contract trading without identity verification.
The trading process has been streamlined into five steps:
· Choose the trading asset
· Select long or short
· Input position size and leverage
· Confirm order details
· Confirm and open the position
The interface provides real-time visualization of price, position, and profit and loss (PnL), allowing users to complete trades without switching between multiple modules.
Mixin has directly integrated social features into the derivative trading environment. Users can create private trading communities and interact around real-time positions:
· End-to-end encrypted private groups supporting up to 1024 members
· End-to-end encrypted voice communication
· One-click position sharing
· One-click trade copying
On the execution side, Mixin aggregates liquidity from multiple sources and accesses decentralized protocol and external market liquidity through a unified trading interface.
By combining social interaction with trade execution, Mixin enables users to collaborate, share, and execute trading strategies instantly within the same environment.
Mixin has also introduced a referral incentive system based on trading behavior:
· Users can join with an invite code
· Up to 60% of trading fees as referral rewards
· Incentive mechanism designed for long-term, sustainable earnings
This model aims to drive user-driven network expansion and organic growth.
Mixin's derivative transactions are built on top of its existing self-custody wallet infrastructure, with core features including:
· Separation of transaction account and asset storage
· User full control over assets
· Platform does not custody user funds
· Built-in privacy mechanisms to reduce data exposure
The system aims to strike a balance between transaction efficiency, asset security, and privacy protection.
Against the background of perpetual contracts becoming a mainstream trading tool, Mixin is exploring a different development direction by lowering barriers, enhancing social and privacy attributes.
The platform does not only view transactions as execution actions but positions them as a networked activity: transactions have social attributes, strategies can be shared, and relationships between individuals also become part of the financial system.
Mixin's design is based on a user-initiated, user-controlled model. The platform neither custodies assets nor executes transactions on behalf of users.
This model aligns with a statement issued by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on April 13, 2026, titled "Staff Statement on Whether Partial User Interface Used in Preparing Cryptocurrency Securities Transactions May Require Broker-Dealer Registration."
The statement indicates that, under the premise where transactions are entirely initiated and controlled by users, non-custodial service providers that offer neutral interfaces may not need to register as broker-dealers or exchanges.
Mixin is a decentralized, self-custodial privacy wallet designed to provide secure and efficient digital asset management services.
Its core capabilities include:
· Aggregation: integrating multi-chain assets and routing between different transaction paths to simplify user operations
· High liquidity access: connecting to various liquidity sources, including decentralized protocols and external markets
· Decentralization: achieving full user control over assets without relying on custodial intermediaries
· Privacy protection: safeguarding assets and data through MPC, CryptoNote, and end-to-end encrypted communication
Mixin has been in operation for over 8 years, supporting over 40 blockchains and more than 10,000 assets, with a global user base exceeding 10 million and an on-chain self-custodied asset scale of over $1 billion.
