There are a lot of ZK projects, why is Lagrange a bit different?
The Competition in the ZK Track
In the past two years, a lot of ZK projects have emerged:
Some are focusing on privacy protection, some on Layer2 scaling, and some on faster Provers.
On the surface, everyone seems to be doing ZK, but the directions are quite scattered.
Lagrange's choice is a bit "different": it not only does proof but also aims to create a complete closed loop for on-chain computation.
In a word: while others are still "reinventing the wheel", it has already started to "build highways".
⸻
1. ZK is not just verification, but a service
Most ZK projects are still stuck at the layer of "verification efficiency",
but Lagrange expands verification into a service:
• Prover Network → Provides distributed computing power to generate proofs.
• Co-processor → Helps developers with cross-chain queries, similar to cloud APIs.
• zkML → A proof system designed specifically for AI inference.
From “function” to “service”, this is its biggest difference from other ZK projects.

2. It focuses on application scenarios, not just technical showcase
Many ZK projects like to brag about proof speed,
but for ordinary developers, no matter how fast it runs, if there are no scenarios for integration, it's useless.
Lagrange's approach is: to directly package the scenarios that developers may need.
• Need cross-chain? Here’s a ready-made ZK query for you.
• Need AI? zkML is already prepared.
• Need off-chain computation? The Prover Network helps you package it on-chain.
This makes it more like AWS, rather than just a pure mathematics lab.

3. Token Design: Not just for show, but a cycle
Some ZK project tokens lack practical use, more like “financing tools”.
But Lagrange’s $LA is truly embedded in the network:
• Pay for computation fees
• Node staking and rewards
• Network governance
Its design is not “one-way consumption”, but a cycle of “computation → payment → rewards → expansion”.
⸻
The ZK track is bustling, and everyone is competing on “speed”.
@Lagrange Official acts like a rebellious student, saying:
“What's the use of speed? I directly help everyone finish the problems, and if correct, I’ll give you a tick.”
Being a bit different is what may support the future.
Thanks to the official team, and thanks to all the folks for reading.
I’m Coin Observer, see you next time for something different.
