Hey babes, good afternoon! I’m finally feeling better. At 22, I didn’t rely on my parents, friends, or take out any loans—I paid in full for my first strawberry cake of the winter. I don’t even dare post it on my Moments, afraid my friends will be jealous, so I can only quietly share it on Twitter 🤣🤣🤣

Lately, I’ve been chatting with friends about DeFi, and we can’t help but complain. On DEXs, no matter how many trades you make or how much you deposit, the fees are always the same every time—no room for negotiation at all. But look at those centralized exchanges: once your trading volume goes up, you get discounts, and loyal customers get special offers. The difference is huge.

At first, I thought it was just the dev teams being too lazy to build personalized features, but later I realized—it’s really not that they don’t want to, they just can’t.

This has always been a big problem for blockchains: a ton of repetitive computation slows things down and drives up costs, making it impossible to implement even slightly complex custom features.

It wasn’t until I learned about @brevis_zk that I realized someone had actually solved this.
They came up with a tool called Pico zkVM, which lets developers run programs written in regular code off-chain and then produce a proof. The blockchain only needs to verify the proof—no more repetitive computation.

Even cooler is their Pico Prism, which is specifically for Ethereum block proofs. It uses half the hardware of competitors and is 70% faster. Now, more than 30 mainstream protocols are already using it.

I specifically checked out @brevis_zk’s data—they’re not just all talk.
They’ve already generated over 200 million proofs, with 100,000 people using it daily, and the total value locked in the ecosystem has increased by $2.8 billion.

I used to think zero-knowledge proof technology was out of reach, but now I see that it’s already become a practical tool for trading. Honestly, it’s only by truly applying technology like this that the blockchain industry can keep moving forward.
