Succinct Launches ZK Prover Network on Ethereum Mainnet

Succinct has launched its decentralized ZK prover network on Ethereum mainnet, activating the PROVE token to incentivize independent verifiers and secure the system. The PROVE token underpins network payments and security. The network serves as a two-sided marketplace where developers submit zero-knowledge proof requests via an API and providers compete for PROVE rewards. It currently supports over 35 protocols and processes proofs for 1,700 programs, securing more than $4 billion in on-chain assets. To date, it has handled over five million proofs for projects including Polygon (MATIC), Mantle (MNT), Celestia (TIA) and Lido (LDO). Built in eight months from whitepaper to deployment, the ZK prover network simplifies verifiable computation at internet scale. With Ethereum prioritizing zero-knowledge solutions and rollups handling high-volume trading and AI workloads, the ZK prover network is poised to drive broader ZK adoption. Developers can integrate today using Succinct’s APIs (docs.succinct.xyz).
Bullish
The launch of a decentralized ZK prover network on Ethereum mainnet with an active PROVE token is likely to drive demand for PROVE and bolster confidence in ZK solutions. In the short term, token demand may rise as provers stake and earn, while developers integrate proofs via API. Over the long term, broad protocol support, multi-billion-dollar secured assets, and backing from Ethereum’s ZK roadmap suggest sustained growth and ecosystem expansion—factors that historically correlate with bullish token performance.
