Features Brevis Pico, a zero-knowledge virtual machine for building modular zk applications.
The Brevis zk coprocessor network, currently being featured on X by Da Vinci (@OxDavinci), is an important upcoming infrastructure layer in the decentralized application (dApp) space that desires trustless computation and verification of data across multiple blockchains.
The Brevis network integrates zero-knowledge proofs (zkProofs), off-chain computation, and the Brevis chain to also enable developers to verify complex logic and historical states, without exposing the underlying data. Its propose-challenge model can provide secure, private and also scalable verification. The post states that Brevis already has created more than 37.5 million proofs, has made 52,420 API requests, and has had 69,153 unique addresses. There are more than 23 dApps in use that use Brevis, such as PancakeSwap, Kernel, Kwenta, Mellow, Euler and Bedrock.
Brevis can have many applications including:
Off-chain computation also frees up Brevis to increase transaction throughput, which can support thousands of operations per second in contrast to Ethereum at 15-30 TPS.
The post features the launch of Brevis Pico, an open-source zero-knowledge virtual machine (zkVM) in 2025 that also enables developers to develop, test, and deploy zk applications more efficiently. Every piece of evidence in fact confirms computation or history data without revealing sensitive information, which can be beneficial in terms of privacy and compliance.
Brevis is a competitor to zkEVMs such as zkSync or Polygon zkEVM, and also provides an all-purpose, chain-agnostic layer. As a fundamental building block of verifiable computation in Web3, Brevis deployed as the foundation of a broad ecosystem of dApps, ensuring privacy and efficiency. It provides developers with a scalable zk applications platform, with tens of thousands of active addresses and millions of proofs served.
