500x Efficiency Leap: How #Succinct Uses $PROVE to Solve the Blockchain Trilemma?
The "Impossible Triangle" of blockchain—security, decentralization, and efficiency—has always been a stumbling block for industry development. However, the #Succinct protocol from @Succinct offers a breakthrough solution using ZK technology: by utilizing a decentralized prover network, it elevates blockchain TPS from 20 to over 10,000+, which is the core support of this breakthrough.
The efficiency revolution of #Succinct stems from the division of labor between the "prover network + on-chain verification": a globally distributed GPU node network forms the prover network, which performs off-chain parallel transaction processing and generates ZK proofs; the blockchain only needs to validate the proof's validity without having to re-execute transactions, reducing computational pressure by over 90%. After integrating with #Succinct , a certain L2 project not only achieved a 500x increase in TPS but also reduced Gas fees by 70%, resulting in a qualitative leap in user experience.
Providing economic guarantees for efficiency improvement: Prover nodes need to stake to receive computational tasks, earning $PROVE rewards after completing the tasks; the higher the computational power and the more accurate the proof, the greater the rewards; the network dynamically allocates computational power based on staking amounts, ensuring high-priority tasks (such as large transaction verification) are completed quickly; and the destruction mechanism of $PROVE (where a portion of transaction fees is used for destruction) ensures that token value is positively correlated with network efficiency.
@Succinct is expanding the boundaries of efficiency: planning to support multi-chain verification for Bitcoin, Solana, and others, allowing cross-chain transactions to enjoy ZK acceleration; optimizing proof algorithms with the goal of compressing the verification time of large AI models from hours to minutes. As the ecosystem matures, #Succinct is expected to enable blockchain efficiency to catch up with traditional payment systems, truly achieving a win-win of "decentralization + high performance."
