Many investors categorize tokens into two types: one is purely speculative assets, and the other is a long-term value carrier tied to infrastructure. The $PROVE of @Succinct clearly belongs to the latter.
Firstly, it is directly linked to real demand. Every proof in the Prover Network requires a fee, which is settled using prove. This is completely different from some 'narrative tokens', whose value relies more on market sentiment, while the value of $PROVE comes from actual on-chain business.
Secondly, it has a lock-up mechanism. Prover nodes must stake prove, which not only ensures the correctness of the submitted results but also leads to long-term locking of the tokens, reducing market sell pressure. This mechanism is similar to Ethereum's staking logic, but the application scenario is more focused on the proof market.
Finally, there is governance empowerment. As the Succinct network expands, community governance will become crucial, and prove embodies this. Infrastructure + demand binding + governance empowerment—these three attributes provide a foundation for long-term valuation.
For investors, this is a typical 'infrastructure-type asset'.
When the ecosystem of #SuccinctLabs expands, the prove of prove is significant.
