The leader of the zero-knowledge proof ecosystem recently stated that 2026 will be the year of explosion for ZK technology. This judgment is based on three key breakthroughs: First, ZK proof computations have been efficiently implemented on consumer-grade GPUs, significantly lowering the participation threshold; second, privacy cross-chain solutions are about to connect traditional finance with the crypto world, with an expected circulation of trillions of assets; third, scalability solutions based on elastic network architectures are in development, with the potential to connect billions of users. @ZK@ tokens are expected to enter a new upward cycle during this period of technological accumulation and ecosystem expansion. With technology in place, scenario implementation, and capital inflow—these three elements are advancing in sync to create a combined force.

Explosion in 2026? Then why not buy the dip now, what are you waiting for?

2026 Explosion? Let's see how 2024 unfolds first haha --- The GPU computing power threshold is interesting, but can it really become widespread? --- Tens of trillions in circulation sound appealing, but the question is, does traditional finance really buy into it? --- It's always "about to connect" or "in the works," I've heard these phrases too many times. --- Expanding to hundreds of millions of users... let's first focus on improving the experience for the current few million users, shall we? --- Three arrows hitting simultaneously can indeed make people dream, but execution is the key. --- $ZK what's the current price again? Is anyone really using it, or is it just hype? --- If privacy cross-chain really becomes a thing, that would be a big deal. Too many slogans still. --- Using consumer-grade GPUs for ZK proofs is progress, but the efficiency still needs improvement. --- Capital inflow is the effect; technology is the cause. We need to look at it the other way around.

Will it explode in 2026? Let's see if we can survive until then first, haha. Again, trillions of dollars in circulation, connecting billions of users... I've heard this story before last year. Running ZK on GPUs is indeed good, but the real bottleneck is adoption. Technology OK ≠ Market OK. I'm optimistic about privacy cross-chain, but the risks are also quite high. Traditional finance acceptance isn't that easy. By the way, how many times can this round increase? Feels like it's being hyped up too much. If GPU adoption really happens, miners will be unemployed again. Not being negative, just feel like the timeline keeps getting pushed back. Let's talk about it next year. Collaborative formation? The premise is that someone has to take the plunge, otherwise it’s just a story.

Will it explode in 2026? Wake up, it's time to get on board now --- GPU computing costs have come down, this is the real game changer, the previous entry barrier was a joke --- Trillions of assets circulating... To put it nicely, it depends on when traditional finance will truly dare to take this leap --- The elastic network architecture sounds good, but implementation is another matter, don’t let it be just another PPT project --- Whether $ZK can rise this time depends on when the funds will enter the market, no matter how good the technology is, without money it’s useless --- If the privacy cross-chain solution truly connects TradFi, that would be a major event, but I remain skeptical --- Three things are coming together now—start planning for 2026? Smart people are waiting for validation, not just for the release --- Can consumer-grade GPUs run it? Then why haven't we seen large-scale influx of miners yet? --- The so-called ecosystem leader talks about explosion, but considering the token ratio he holds... haha --- Technology in place, scenarios implemented, capital inflow—sounds great, but not a single one has actually been achieved

2026? That's still a while away. It's time to get on board now...

2026 is too far away. Let's get on board now; the technology is already in place anyway.

Will it erupt in 2026? I think we should already be laying low now. GPU costs have come down, what are we waiting for?

Here comes the hype again about a big explosion in 2026, same old tricks haha --- Can consumer-grade GPUs run ZK? Then maybe my mining graphics card can mine too --- Trillions of assets circulating... Just listen, first get the current liquidity up then talk --- Elastic network architecture connecting hundreds of millions of users? Come on, guys, no need to boast --- Every time they say the technology is ready and the scenarios are landing, then what? It still depends on how much real money can flow in --- No hype, no blackening, ZK is indeed promising, just don’t keep saying next year, I’m a bit tired of the same old story --- If GPU computing power really becomes a thing, that would be the strongest link in the chain --- Privacy cross-chain connecting traditional finance? Wake up, banks don’t want to get involved at all --- I still have some respect for the $ZK token, but we’ll have to wait and see how the real implementation progresses

It's another outbreak in 2026. How many times have I heard that? Let's get through 2025 first.
