Investors often say that a good token model should create a 'flywheel effect'.
@Succinct 's $PROVE has this characteristic.
The first step of the flywheel is attracting developers through technology. The performance and development experience of SP1 zkVM have led more and more projects to choose to integrate.
This brings more application scenarios.
The second step is demand driving token usage. The more application scenarios there are, the greater the demand is proven to be, and each proof requires consuming $PROVE.
The actual usage of the token consequently increases.
The third step is node staking enhancing the network.
More proof demand attracts more nodes to join, and joining nodes must stake $PROVE, further reducing market circulation.
The fourth step is value enhancement attracting ecosystems. As the value of $P$PROVE increases, more ecosystems are willing to collaborate with Succinct, further expanding the market size.
This is a typical flywheel: developers → demand → token usage → node staking → value enhancement → ecosystem expansion → more developers.
#SuccinctLabs has already run this model, and what investors see is this self-reinforcing long-term logic.
