The partnership with the energy giant reportedly propelled Pharos Network\u2019s valuation to nearly $1 billion, signaling a massive institutional bet on the network\u2019s RealFi infrastructure. To date, Pharos has secured $52 million in total funding, including a $44 million Series A led by a mix of traditional technology and finance investors.<\/p>\n<p>The mainnet launch is supported by performance data from the past year, during which the Pharos testnet processed more than 4.3 billion transactions across 209 million wallets. This high-scale stress test demonstrates that the network is ready to handle the heavy throughput required for global financial applications.<\/p>\n<p>By integrating with GCL New Energy and other institutional partners, Pharos aims to solve the critical \u201clast mile\u201d of tokenization: moving real-world assets ( <span>RWAs<\/span>) from fragmented, isolated silos into a unified, compliant, and liquid on-chain market.<\/p>\n<p>While tokenized Treasuries and real estate have gained traction, institutional adoption has been hampered by a lack of privacy and fragmented distribution. Pharos aims to provide a privacy-preserving framework that allows institutions to maintain control over sensitive portfolio data while remaining compliant.<\/p>\n<p>Once onboarded, participants can move, lend, and trade assets across the ecosystem without the operational friction that typically traps capital. The network\u2019s pAlpha High Yield <span>RWA<\/span> Vault reached its full $50 million capacity within days of opening, proving capital is ready to move into the Pharos environment.<\/p>\n<p>Through integrations with OKX Wallet and Topnod Wallet, existing <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bitcoin.com\/get-started\/a-quick-introduction-to-crypto\/\" class=\"lar_link lar_link_outgoing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">crypto<\/a> users can access the network.

Now it is happening,\u201d said Wish Wu, founder and CEO of the Pharos Foundation. \u201cThis launch turns that momentum into something the whole ecosystem can actually use.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>To support growth, Pharos has established the RealFi Alliance, a $10 million Hong Kong-based incubator.
