Real-Time Proving Scales Ethereum
- Succinct's Sysync connects proof consumers (L1, L2, exchanges) with global provers to scale verification workloads.
- Real-time proving can replace re-execution and enable near-instant finality for many Ethereum use-cases.
ZK Progress Arrived Faster Than Expected
- Uma Roy recalls that many expected ZK proving to be five to ten years away but progress surprised them.
- That rapid advancement pushed teams to productize and take ZK proving to market now.
Proving Could Become A Major Market
- Uma Roy estimates proving demand could reach hundreds of millions annually as TPS and proving fees scale with rollups and L1 upgrades.
- Redirecting a fraction of Ethereum issuance toward provers would create material incentives for a prover ecosystem.
