$PROM is a modular ZkEVM Layer 2 blockchain designed to enhance interoperability between EVM and non-EVM compatible networks. Originally established in 2019 as the Prometeus Network, the project has evolved significantly, now leveraging zero-knowledge (ZK) rollups and the Polygon CDK to provide a high-performance, scalable, and secure infrastructure. By bundling transactions for settlement on the Ethereum mainnet, Prom achieves near-instant finality and drastically reduced gas fees, making it an attractive platform for decentralized finance (DeFi), gaming, and NFT applications.
As of January 2026, the $PROM token serves as the ecosystem's primary utility and governance engine, facilitating transaction fees, staking rewards, and community voting within its DAO. Recent market performance shows $PROM consolidating after a brief correction, with the price rebounding from a support level of approximately \$6.62 to trade near \$7.32. The project’s 2026 roadmap is particularly ambitious, focusing on expanding its cross-chain bridge to support assets from Solana and Cosmos, alongside the launch of a significant developer grants program. Positioned at the intersection of modularity and ZK technology, Prom is strategically building towards a future where multi-chain liquidity is seamless and decentralized governance is more robust, aiming to capture a larger share of the Layer 2 market.
