The mainnet is online, and it’s not a small matter; this means that zero-knowledge computation can finally be integrated into everyday applications. Previously, zero-knowledge proof (ZK) technology was like a delicacy hidden in a deep alley—everyone knew it was good but it was too difficult to access. Ordinary developers had to spend a lot of effort studying complex cryptographic knowledge to use it, so it never became widespread.
But with the arrival of Succinct, things are different. It offers proof as a service, just like when you don’t want to cook for yourself and simply order takeout, leaving the hassle of generating proofs to professional nodes. Even if you know nothing about cryptography, you can quickly use ZK features in your project. Previously, it might have taken the team months of hard work; now with it, you can get it done in a few days—efficiency that’s absurdly high.
The benefits are very apparent in everyday scenarios. It’s like when you shop online and transfer money—it’s fast and reliable. In lightweight node applications, it can help reduce the burden on nodes, allowing ordinary smartphones and computers to run it, just like low-end phones can still smoothly play videos. When verifying AI computations, it can ensure reliable results at low costs, just like when you look up information—it’s accurate and convenient.
The $PROVE token is core; you need to spend it for services, nodes must stake it to ensure security, and it can also be used to allocate resources and participate in governance, just like a universal coupon in the community, with many uses.
Succinct is open and standardized, and is expected to become a universal tool in the ZK field, allowing more people to easily use this technology.
