Introduction


For blockchain to reach mainstream adoption, user confidence must be absolute. While early adopters accept risks as part of innovation, everyday users demand reliability, transparency, and security. Unfortunately, the Web3 space has often failed to meet these expectations, with frequent hacks and collapses undermining trust. Succinct Labs is addressing this gap by enabling proof-based systems that guarantee correctness. The $PROVE token powers this network, ensuring that trust becomes a built-in property of blockchain rather than a leap of faith.

Why Users Lack Confidence


Despite its innovations, blockchain has often left users vulnerable. Centralized exchanges fail, DeFi protocols collapse, and bridge hacks drain liquidity. These events reinforce skepticism among mainstream users and institutions. Without confidence, adoption remains slow, and blockchain struggles to move beyond speculation into real-world utility. Users need assurances that go beyond promises — they need guarantees.

Proofs as the Basis of User Confidence


Succinct Labs provides those guarantees through zero-knowledge proofs. Instead of relying on trust in centralized entities or opaque systems, users can rely on mathematical evidence of correctness. A lending platform can prove it holds adequate reserves. A DAO can prove governance votes were tallied correctly. A bridge can prove transaction validity across chains. These assurances are not optional features — they become the default expectation, transforming how users engage with blockchain systems.
