Day 1 The Prover Season By Succinct $PROVE
-
DAY 1
Succinct been all over the Binance Square and social media and only handful of person know what is actually about. People talk about prover network, SP1, ZKP but those technical lingo confused people more and more. . .
So, In Day 1 We will try to clear about getting the idea of What is Succinct Actually?
Imagine you have a complex task, like a huge math problem or running a complicated computer program. Normally, you'd have to trust a powerful computer to do the work and tell you the right answer. But what if you could prove that the answer is correct, without having to re-do all that work yourself or see all the steps?
This is exactly what Succinct does.
So, you're wondering how it works. Let me show you. Suppose you are a requester, which means you have a task that needs to be done. You write a program, maybe in a language like Rust, and you want to run it without having to trust a specific person or company
You submit this program to Succinct's network. Think of this network as a pool of powerful computers run by people around the world. These computers are called "provers"
The provers see your request, and one of them runs your program for you. As it runs the program, it creates a very special and tiny piece of data called a "proof" Or specifically Zero Knowledge Proofs
The prover then sends this small proof back to you. Now, here's the thing, you don't need to run the whole program yourself to know the result is correct. You just need to quickly check this tiny proof. If the proof is valid, you can be 100% sure that the program ran exactly as you wrote it
In short, you give a task to the network, a computer runs it and gives you a tiny, instant-to-check proof, and you use that proof to confirm the result without having to trust anyone.
That's the core idea behind succinct its so simple yet too complex, we will learn more about it's work ethics and Flow in Day 2
