Lagrange, launched in 2023 by Lagrange Labs, is revolutionizing blockchain and AI through its infinite proving layer, combining a ZK Prover Network and hyper-parallel ZK Coprocessor. Operating on EigenLayer with 85+ institutional operators, Lagrange enables scalable, trustless verification for applications like ZK rollups and verifiable AI via DeepProve. The LA token, with a 1 billion total supply and 4% annual emission, is the fuel of this ecosystem, driving decentralized proof generation and interoperability across chains like Ethereum and Solana.
The LA token’s utilities are integral to Lagrange’s vision. Primarily, it serves as the medium for proof generation fees, where clients pay for cryptographic verifications—such as AI model outputs or cross-chain data queries—in $LA, ETH, or USDC, with provers always rewarded in $LA, creating buy pressure. This incentivizes network activity, as increased proof demand directly boosts token demand. Additionally, $LA supports staking and delegation, allowing token holders to stake tokens to secure the network or delegate to provers, earning rewards while reducing circulating supply. Provers stake $LA as collateral, facing penalties for non-delivery, ensuring network reliability.
Governance is another key function, with $LA holders voting on protocol upgrades, resource allocation, and ecosystem initiatives through the Lagrange Foundation’s DAO, fostering community-driven innovation. The token also unlocks premium features, like token-gated Discord tiers (e.g., Goldfish for 10 $LA, Whales for 10,000), offering exclusive access to events and insights. Backed by Founders Fund and NVIDIA, Lagrange’s partnerships with ZKsync and Polygon enhance its cross-chain capabilities. With $17.2M raised and a 10% airdrop in May 2025, $LA’s role in fees, staking, governance, and community perks positions it as a cornerstone of verifiable, scalable Web3 and AI infrastructure.
