**wPRL is Pearl on Solana.** A 1:1 wrapped representation of native PRL,
backed by on-chain Pearl reserves with 24×7 permissionless minting and
redeeming.

**wPRL is secured by Nacre Protocol.** In nature, nacre is the iridescent
substance a mollusk wraps around a grain of sand, layer by layer, to form a
pearl; that's what gives every pearl its luster. The protocol does the same kind
of work: wrapping native PRL into a form that carries its value across
Solana.
