In a nutshell: this thing has blown up the 'anti-theft door' of ZK technology and conveniently built a high-speed slide—previously, if you wanted to deal with ZK, you had to be a tech giant with a team chewing through code for half a year, burning millions on servers. Now? Any programmer can casually sip a soda and click a few times to get it done.
Do you think those top institutions are here to speculate on coins? Wrong! Paradigm, Standard Crypto, these players have sharp eyes; they are focused on Succinct's 'table-turning' ability behind $PROVE. ZK technology has long been touted as the 'savior of Web3', capable of solving privacy and scalability issues, but previously it was like treasure hidden at the top of Mount Everest—it's not that they don't want to dig, but climbing up is exhausting; ordinary projects? Don't even think about it!
What did Succinct do? It directly leveled Mount Everest into a bungalow!
Its two 'killer moves' are like a 'dimensionality reduction strike' on the ZK industry.
First, let's talk about the decentralized Prover network. In the past, using ZK meant setting up your own server cluster, and the computing power burned money like drinking oil; small projects would take one look and walk away. Now? Succinct has twisted the global computing power into a single rope, creating 'ZK computing power ride-sharing'—want to prove something? Just place an order on the platform, and others' idle computing power can solve it for you in no time, cutting costs to less than half of the original while being ten times faster than your own messy attempts! This is not 'ride-sharing'; this has reduced the 'travel cost' of ZK from Rolls-Royce prices to shared bicycle prices!
Now, let's look at the SP1 tool. This thing is like giving developers a 'ZK cheat code'. Previously, writing a ZK application meant chewing through cryptographic principles and swallowing them, with code piled higher than a person, and losing more hair than code produced. Now? SP1 directly packages the underlying logic into a 'foolproof template'. Want to set up a privacy payment? Just a few clicks; want to do an on-chain identity verification? A few more clicks. Tasks that used to take three months can now be done in three days, or even a demo can be produced on the same day! Developers have kept their hair, and the birth rate of ZK applications has transformed from 'difficult delivery' to 'mass production on the assembly line'!
Simply put, capital is frantically scrambling for $PROVE, not because they're betting on how high its price can jump, but because they gamble on its ability to turn ZK technology from 'laboratory exhibit' into 'cabbage at the market'. Previously, ZK was a luxury for the few; now, Succinct has forcefully transformed it into a daily necessity with 9.9 shipping included—capital would be crazy not to chase after something that can completely rewrite industry rules!
As for that wave of 'spike' after Binance's listing? Simply put, early players got to taste the sweetness ahead of time. But the real highlight is still to come: when Succinct lowers the ZK threshold to 'street vendor' level, all projects will have to come and bask in its glory. The value of $PROVE? It's not comparable to this level of fluctuation now.
Capital clustering? This is not clustering; it's reserving seats in advance—waiting for the day ZK technology transforms from 'aloof academic' to 'common knowledge', $PROVE will be the one holding the ticket!
