PROSPER Launches Performance-Triggered Buyback and Burn Mechanism for p{VAULT}

PROSPER has introduced a predefined Buyback and Burn mechanism as part of its newly launched Performance Markets framework, creating an automated link between eligible Vault performance fees and the supply of corresponding p{VAULT} tokens.

The mechanism becomes active after an associated Vault strategy exceeds its high-water mark. At that point, a predefined portion of eligible performance fees is used to purchase the corresponding p{VAULT} through third-party decentralized exchanges.

Tokens acquired through those transactions are then permanently burned.

The process is an automated protocol function triggered through predefined smart-contract logic. PROSPER says it is not a price-support, stabilization, or market-making program.

The mechanism forms part of PROSPER’s broader MemeRWA framework, which went live on Pharos Network. MemeRWA uses observable economic performance data as a reference for independently priced crypto-native assets without tokenizing ownership of the underlying strategy.

Each Performance Market begins with a third-party Curator creating a Vault around an onchain strategy. Vault Shares provide direct exposure to that strategy, while p{VAULT} operates as a separate crypto-native asset.

The two instruments remain distinct. p{VAULT} does not represent ownership in the Vault, track its NAV, or provide holders with claims on the Vault’s assets, performance, or profits. Its price is determined independently, initially through a public bonding curve and, after graduation, through external liquidity.

The corresponding Vault’s performance instead provides an observable economic reference. Information including Vault holdings, NAV, fee accrual, bonding curve reserves, and completed buyback transactions can be observed onchain.

Each p{VAULT} also launches with a fixed supply of 1 billion tokens, without a presale, team allocation, or insider allocation.

PROSPER provides the technology infrastructure behind the framework, while third-party Curators deploy and manage their respective onchain strategies.
