Pharos Network, an EVM-compatible Layer-1 blockchain, has officially launched its public mainnet. The network announced the milestone on the X platform, stating that a successful hard fork event triggered the activation of the mainnet.
Network Designed for Real-World Assets
The Pharos Pacific Ocean Mainnet is built as a Proof-of-Stake blockchain powered by the PROS native token. The project focuses on connecting traditional financial assets with Web3 cross-chain utility. Its ecosystem targets tokenized real-world assets (RWAs), artificial intelligence applications, and decentralized finance (DeFi). The team describes the network as an institution-grade layer-1 platform, engineered for high transaction speeds and regulatory compliance.
Path to Public Launch
The public mainnet launch follows an earlier private mainnet rollout on December 12, 2025. That event marked the first step in a phased public deployment. More recently, on April 20, Pharos announced the tokenomics for its native PROS token. The token supports on-chain asset governance, staking, fee payments, and RWA use cases.
What Users Can Do
With the public mainnet now live, the utility and security of the PROS token can integrate with the broader DeFi ecosystem. The blockchain aims to bridge traditional fintech services with Web3 technologies, making institutional-grade assets accessible to global users. Decentralized institutions, enterprises, developers, crypto holders, and DeFi enthusiasts can now interact with the Pharos blockchain for the first time.
