New DePIN protocol rolls out ZK-Proof processing marketplace
Brevis has launched ProverNet, a decentralized physical infrastructure (DePIN) marketplace for zero-knowledge proof (ZK-proof) computation. The platform enables users to earn by providing proving capacity and allows applications to access scalable ZK-proof processing. Initially using USDC for settlements, the network plans to transition to its native BREV token upon mainnet launch, which will also introduce staking and slashing mechanisms for provers.
ProverNet addresses the computationally intensive nature of ZK-proof generation by distributing tasks through continuous auctions and job matching. Brevis, already an established player, has processed over 250 million proofs for partners like Uniswap, PancakeSwap, and MetaMask. The system is designed to handle variable workloads, offering flexibility and avoiding vendor lock-in. Production workloads, including Ethereum block execution proofs from ETHProofs, are already being migrated to the new network.
