- Brevis launches ProverNet, a decentralized ZK proof marketplace using TODA auctions to scale blockchain verification. - Platform processes 250M+ proofs via zkVM execution and recursive aggregation, achieving 99.6% Ethereum block verification under 12 seconds. - BREV token enables staking, governance, and payments while partners like PancakeSwap and Linea leverage infrastructure for DeFi applications. - Entering a competitive ZK market with Proof Market and Prover Network, ProverNet targets DEX hooks and

Brevis, a platform focused on zero-knowledge (ZK) verifiable computation, has introduced ProverNet—a decentralized marketplace for generating ZK proofs aimed at improving blockchain verification scalability and performance. Outlined in a whitepaper published on Nov. 17,

utilizes a Truthful Online Double Auction (TODA) protocol

to efficiently pair computational jobs with operators running specialized hardware, tackling the limitations of centralized proof systems. ProverNet organizes proof creation through ongoing auction cycles, where users define job criteria and provers submit bids based on price, speed, and processing power. The platform accommodates zero-knowledge virtual machine (zkVM) operations, recursive proof aggregation, and verification of historical data,

with Brevis reporting over 250 million proofs processed in production

so far.

The TODA framework breaks down complex proof tasks into smaller units, allowing multiple provers to collaborate while maintaining fair bidding and balanced budgets.

This system ensures transparent pricing

and protects participants from involuntary losses through rationality constraints.

Performance tests show ProverNet can generate 99.6% of

Ethereum

blocks in less than 12 seconds and 96.8% in under 10 seconds using a 64-GPU setup,

making it suitable

for use cases like DEX hooks, scheduled reward payouts, and cross-chain data verification.

The BREV token acts as both the utility and governance token for the protocol, enabling payments for proof services, staking for provers, and decentralized governance.

Brevis is rolling out ProverNet in stages

, starting with a beta mainnet that features a simplified TODA auction and will later introduce full staking at the mainnet launch. Integration partners include

PancakeSwap

, which leverages Brevis hooks for fee discounts based on trading volume, and

Linea, which distributed 1 billion LINEA tokens

through the platform’s infrastructure.

ProverNet joins a competitive ZK infrastructure landscape, going up against decentralized proof marketplaces such as

Nil

Foundation’s Proof Market (debuted January 2023) and Succinct’s Prover Network (launched August 2025).

Boundless

also recently introduced a universal ZK protocol marketplace on Base in September 2025. At the same time,

DeFi total value locked (TVL) climbed to $135.28 billion

as of November 2025, reflecting a rising need for scalable verification tools.
