How Succinct Makes Everyone a Guardian of Trust**
In today's world where zero-knowledge proof (ZKP) technology is increasingly becoming central to blockchain scalability and privacy, Succinct Labs is driving a technological democratization movement with its decentralized prover network. Its SP1 protocol and open node network allow anyone with hardware to participate in proof generation and share in the ecological benefits.
Since its launch, the Succinct Prover Network has quickly gathered 500 nodes globally, optimizing latency to 300 milliseconds by July 2025, with a throughput of 100,000 requests per second. Through a bidding mechanism, nodes can freely participate in the proof service market, achieving efficient allocation of computational resources. A single upgrade in June attracted 150 new nodes, covering important ecosystems such as Polygon and Celestia.
The SP1 zkVM allows developers to create ZK applications using general-purpose languages like Rust or C without delving deeply into cryptographic details. After the launch of the multi-chain verification API, the number of dApp integrations reached 300, with over 150 million calls. On the hardware side, FPGA acceleration brings a 15-fold performance increase, while activities like “Prover Bootcamp” incentivize more node operators to join through rewards, building a more robust network foundation.
Token $PROVE is the core of system operation. It is used to pay proof fees, stake for security, and participate in governance decisions. After the mainnet launch, $PROVE showed strong performance, with a maximum increase of 150%, supporting 35 protocols, and securing over $4 billion in assets. Stakers can share actual profits and influence parameter design through voting, promoting the network towards a more equitable and efficient direction.
Despite challenges such as a high node exit rate, #Succinct continuously optimizes the experience by monitoring 400 nodes through a real-time browser. @Succinct has a clear goal: to bid farewell to the high barriers and closed nature of ZK technology, moving towards an open, collaborative, and community-driven future. Today, every participant is becoming a builder of the trust network.
