Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - December 18, 2024) - Prophecy DeFi Inc. (CSE: PDFI) ("Prophecy DeFi" or the "Company") is pleased to provide an update on its strategic investments in Jupiter and Pyth Network, underscoring its strong confidence in Solana as a leading Layer 1 blockchain. Solana's scalability, efficiency, and innovative contributions to decentralized finance (DeFi) position it as a critical force in the decentralized economy. Through these holdings, Prophecy DeFi provides investors with direct exposure to the infrastructure driving Solana's growth.
Jupiter Governance Milestone Strengthens Liquidity Incentives
Jupiter has established itself as one of the most advanced aggregator platforms in the crypto ecosystem, with a market cap of over $1.4 billion USD. [1] By consolidating liquidity across decentralized exchanges on Solana, Jupiter allows users to seamlessly find the most efficient routes for token swaps. Since launching in January 2024, Jupiter has grown to now have over $2.6 billion USD[2] in Total Value Locked (TVL), showcasing its importance to the Solana ecosystem.
On December 8, 2024, Jupiter successfully passed a key governance proposal aimed at refining the distribution of future rewards, allocating two incentives of $860 million USD worth (at historical prices) of tokens each over two years. [3] This governance initiative highlights Jupiter's proactive strategy to strengthen liquidity incentives and reinforces its leadership within the Solana ecosystem.
Prophecy DeFi remains actively engaged in Jupiter's governance and benefits directly from this in the form of airdrops. In the last quarter, Prophecy DeFi earned 58,841.42 JUP tokens, realizing a quarterly yield of 16.9%. These earnings are automatically reinvested, compounding the Company's position for future returns. Prophecy DeFi has continued its active involvement in governance this quarter and expects to receive another airdrop relating to its activities in Q1 2025.
Pyth Network Enhances Decentralized Market Data Infrastructure
Pyth Network, with a market cap exceeding $1.6 billion USD[4], is redefining the oracle landscape by delivering high-fidelity, low-latency market data sourced directly from industry leaders. Oracles are essential to DeFi, connecting blockchain networks to real-world data feeds. Pyth's real-time data is critical for applications such as trading platforms and derivatives, where precision and speed are paramount.
Since its launch in November 2023, Pyth Network has demonstrated rapid adoption:
- 330+ applications across 55+ blockchains,
- $300B+ cumulative trading volume, and
- 500+ real-time price feeds across traditional and digital asset classes. [5]
Prophecy DeFi currently holds 422,913 PYTH tokens, benefiting from Pyth's exponential growth and its pivotal role in enhancing the performance of Solana's ecosystem. Compared to legacy oracle providers, Pyth's innovative approach addresses the real-time data needs of high-performance blockchain environments, positioning itself as a critical infrastructure solution.
Prophecy DeFi's Vision

Our investments in Jupiter and Pyth Network reflect our belief in Solana as a leading Layer 1 blockchain and our confidence in its ability to drive DeFi innovation. By supporting these foundational protocols, we offer investors direct exposure to critical components of Solana's growth, aligning with our mission to foster the global adoption of DeFi and blockchain technology.
