Succinct (PROVE) is a decentralized infrastructure project built around zero-knowledge proof generation. It operates across the Ethereum and BNB Chain ecosystems and is designed to function as a global, distributed proving cluster. The network is co-designed with SP1, an open-source zero-knowledge virtual machine, and introduces a competitive mechanism known as proof contests for matching proof requests with proving capacity. The platform provides a unified marketplace where users can submit proof requests and where provers from anywhere in the world can supply computational resources. Provers can join the network on a permissionless basis by running node software, while users benefit from reliability guarantees for their requests. The proof contest mechanism operates as an all-pay auction with collateral, designed to balance cost efficiency with decentralization, enable price discovery, and mitigate issues such as proof spamming and contention. Coordination of provers and requests is settled on an application-specific blockchain tailored to this function, making Succinct an infrastructure layer focused on scaling zero-knowledge proving capacity.
