2024 marked a pivotal year for Partisia Blockchain as we transitioned from Beta to a fully operational mainnet and saw the MPC token listed on major foundational exchanges. From onboarding innovative projects to expanding partnerships and refining our core infrastructure, we’ve laid the groundwork for a breakout 2025. The surge in data breaches, coupled with the growing reliance on AI, highlights the critical need for privacy-enhancing technologies.
Read on to catch up on all the updates from 2024.
In March, the $MPC token launched on leading centralized exchanges including KuCoin, Bitfinex, Gate.io, MEXC, BitMart, and Bitrue.

$MPC token is now onboarded to transak! This means anyone with a simple credit card will now be able to purchase MPC tokens using various onramps that support Transak. First will be zkCross Network’s onramp system, with Koala wallet upcoming next. Check it out at https://global.transak.com/ and see how simple it is to now purchase MPC tokens!
We’ve redoubled our efforts to engage with audiences beyond our existing community by participating in various external channels and events.
Adrienne has been at the forefront, discussing DePIN and the data-driven future alongside AYDO. Additionally, we hosted a session with Bitfinex to kickstart the upcoming trading competition.

Partisia Blockchain is proud to contribute to these pivotal conversations driving the future of Web3!
We’ve heard your request for making MPC be available as gas and have now launched the ability to wrap MPC to wMPC and have it usable as gas. This means no more need to bridge other BYOC tokens just to interact on our network. To make things even easier, we have now launched on top a dusting solution where there will be a one time initial dusting of gas to convert MPC to wMPC if you have no gas.
Interacting in Partisia Blockchain has never been easier!
Look for future use of wMPC such as transferring them to the Eth network and having it land on a DEX in the future.
It’s time to celebrate another round of bootstrap rewards! This quarter, we distributed a total of 3.2 million $MPC tokens to our incredible stakers.
This reward period marked a significant step forward as we began automating the bootstrap rewards distribution process, completing the first phase of this functionality. Additionally, we introduced a new node operator voting process. Looking ahead, we aim to fully automate the rewards system in the next quarter, ensuring that computations and distributions happen seamlessly.
With an outstanding 24% APR over the last three months, now is the perfect time to stake your tokens and maximize your rewards!
