Galxe Quests are beloved in the blockchain space for providing delightful experiences that connect projects with users. Galxe is partnering with Succinct to bring the verifiability of ZK to all raffles. Galxe’s ZK raffle uses a drand oracle, which provides onchain random numbers, in conjunction with SP1 to allow
Phala Network is the leading TEE network, pioneering the future of verifiable AI agents. We are proud to support Phala as they launch the first OP Succinct rollup on mainnet. Frontier crypto and AI applications like Phala are using ZK rollups powered by Succinct. Phala’s ZK rollup settles payments
Mantle, a leading optimistic L2 with over $2.2B TVL, is partnering with Succinct to transform into a ZK rollup with SP1 and Succinct’s upcoming prover network. Mantle, a leading optimistic rollup with over $2.2B TVL, is transitioning to a ZK-rollup using Succinct’s market-leading zkEVM framework. This
Bringing Scalable, Zero-Knowledge Proofs to the Solana Ecosystem TL;DR: Our blazing fast zkVM SP1 now has a Solana verifier. Developers who want to use ZKPs on Solana for scalability (network extensions or large-scale ZK coprocessing) and privacy use cases (verifiable credentials, ZK KYC, confidential AMMs) can now easily use
By Cairo / Succinct Residency 2024 The Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) is the computational heart of Ethereum. It enables developers to build decentralized applications accessible to anyone. One of the upcoming EVM updates is transformational: the EVM Object Format (EOF) upgrade introduces a series of improvements to the stack, control flow,
TL;DR: Our intern "Bhargav the Great" went wild coding on SP1 for his summer internship and now Fred Ehrsam follows him on X. * He shipped new precompiles for accelerating bn254 and bls12-381 elliptic curve operations, making SP1 the only production-ready zkVM with these available today. * These precompiles
We’ve partnered with Conduit, a leading rollup platform, to support easy deployment of OP Succinct rollups. OP Succinct is a best of all worlds ZK rollup. It combines the innovation of SP1, our general-purpose zkVM, with the OP stack to create a fast, affordable, and highly customizable zkEVM. This
We’re excited to announce that Celestia, a modular data availability layer, is using SP1, our market-leading zkVM, to secure the Blobstream bridge to Ethereum. Building Blobstream with SP1 was simple and easily maintainable, with all logic written in Rust, and makes Celestia data available to rollups settling on Ethereum,
Upgrade any OP Stack chain to use ZKPs in just 1 hour with SP1 Today, we’re excited to showcase how combining SP1—a general-purpose zkVM—with OP Stack, a battle-tested rollup framework, creates a zkEVM rollup that is fast, affordable and highly customizable. Historically, zkEVM rollups have been difficult
The Succinct ZK residency is a 1 month in-person program hosted in Succinct’s San Francisco Office from September 23rd to October 18th. Recent advances in general-purpose ZK like SP1 have finally made it possible to iterate quickly with ZK with fast performance needed for real-world use-cases. The purpose of
SP1 is now feature-complete and recommended for production use. SP1 is now feature-complete and recommended for production use. Our zkVM enables any developer to create real-world ZKP applications by simply writing Rust, with state of the art performance. SP1 already secures over $1 billion in TVL, with over 10,000
Our updated performance benchmarks for SP1’s latest production-ready release (v1.1.1). Experience unparalleled performance with our new GPU prover.
