What is Prosper (PROS)?
Prosper is a decentralized platform that enables users to make predictions about the values of different assets or cryptocurrencies. Participants in this market are rewarded for correctly predicting outcomes In other words, it's a cross-chain prediction market. Besides, it has an integrated on-chain liquidity aggregation protocol.
The platform is a blockchain-based system that uses smart contracts to function. It is designed to be non-custodial, meaning that users have full control over their wallets and the platform does not possess any authority. The network is powered by Binance Smart Chain (BSC).
Prosper utilizes a pool system as its operational model. It has three different pools available every day at 15, 30, and 60 minute intervals on the BSC network. The platform hopes to provide users with the opportunity to predict values for both BNB and ETH in these pools, allowing them to set their own custom values for each one. Furthermore, the network utilizes a unique liquidity provision to guarantee the supply of resources in the pool.
The PROS token is the native utility token of the platform. The live Prosper price chart above displays the current PROS price and its recent movements.
