The "Engine" of ZK Economy: How does Succinct reconstruct Web3 infrastructure with $PROVE?
As zero-knowledge proofs (ZK) become the core technology for privacy and scalability in Web3, @Succinct is redefining the implementation path of ZK technology with the #Succinct protocol. This decentralized prover network and SP1 protocol developed by Succinct Labs allows general zero-knowledge proofs to say goodbye to complex infrastructure, achieving a dual breakthrough in high performance and easy deployment, while $PROVE is the "fuel" driving this ecosystem.
The disruptive aspect of #Succinct lies in its “dimensionality reduction” of traditional ZK thresholds: through the SP1 zkVM development framework, ordinary developers do not need to be proficient in cryptography; writing ZK proofs is as simple as writing regular software, which is equivalent to equipping the ZK world with a “TypeScript compiler.” Even more innovative is its “real-time proof” paradigm—off-chain computation and on-chain verification, allowing 93% of Ethereum blocks to complete ZK proofs within 12 seconds, far exceeding similar solutions in efficiency. This combination of “ease of use + high efficiency” has attracted 35+ protocol integrations, including leading projects like Celestia and Taiko.
Empowering the ecosystem with a strong economic core: As the settlement layer of cross-chain ZK networks, generating proofs requires payment of $PROVE , ensuring the computational incentives for the prover network; staking can become network nodes, with malicious actions facing token forfeiture to ensure system security; holding $PROVE also allows participation in governance to determine the direction of protocol upgrades. This design makes it not only a payment tool but also a certificate of rights for ecosystem co-construction.
@Succinct is expanding the boundaries of ZK through #Succinct : Google Wallet has integrated its components to achieve “privacy age verification,” and the White House's 2025 digital asset report lists ZK as a core technology for privacy compliance, with #Succinct being a key infrastructure in this roadmap. As the proving network driven by it globalizes, from L2 scalability to AI privacy verification, #Succinct is making ZK the underlying capability of the next generation of the web.
