  In the context of cryptocurrency, pari passu refers to the equal treatment of all investors or token holders. It means that everyone has the same rights and privileges, and no one has priority over others when it comes to the distribution of assets or profits. This ensures fairness and prevents any preferential treatment. So, in simple terms, pari passu means that everyone gets an equal share.

  Pro rata, on the other hand, means that the distribution of assets or profits is based on the proportion of one's investment or ownership. If you have invested more or own a larger percentage of tokens, you will receive a proportionally higher share. This approach takes into account the size of one's investment or ownership and rewards those who have contributed more.
