Okay this is big: ZK crossed from demo land to production-grade and the receipts are wild. @brevis_zk
❯ Pico Prism isn’t “a faster prover,” it’s a distributed multi-GPU architecture: 99.6% of ETH blocks proven, 96.8% in <10s, avg ~6–7s, and hardware down from 160× RTX 4090 to 64× RTX 5090.
❯ That’s within touching distance of EF’s realtime proving target. Translation: prove once, everyone verifies a tiny receipt. Less re-execution, more throughput, lower validator bar.
❯ Why it matters beyond nerd points: cheaper validation means we can push richer app logic (loyalty tiers, risk-aware fees, cross-chain attestations) off-chain and snap back succinct proofs on-chain paying pennies to verify instead of $$$ to recompute.
❯ Compare: most zkVM stacks hover ~40% coverage on mainnet workloads; Prism is already handling the daily load. This isn’t an incremental tweak it’s an ops model shift.
❯ Dev note: if you’re designing incentives, score behavior in Rust on Pico, emit {result + proof}, verify in a tiny Solidity callback. Gas stays flat, users stay private, your UX gets smarter.
Net: We’ve talked “ZK = privacy” for years; succinctness is the unlock that scales Ethereum and makes laptops credible light verifiers. I’m tracking how quickly this flows into real fee/reward logic next
