ZK proofs are essential for blockchain scaling, interoperability, and privacy but are currently too complex for many developers—succinct aims to simplify this with its zkVM, SP1, and a decentralized prover network.
Succinct’s infrastructure is already being used by projects like Celestia, Wormhole, Lido, Avail, Near, and Gnosis to build ZK-enabled applications. The company is actively hiring to further develop SP1 and prepare for the mainnet launch of its prover network.
