Zero-knowledge proofs made simple: verify any chain in one second, settle for a cent.
Core Technology
zkVM: A universal RISC-V virtual machine that can automatically compile Rust/C++/Go programs into provable circuits.
Bonsai Proof Network: A distributed GPU/FPGA cluster that continuously "computes proofs" 24 hours a day and bids at market prices.
Recursive proof aggregation: Compressing thousands of proofs into a single 200 bytes checksum, reducing on-chain gas fees by 95%.
Charging Model
- Pricing based on "number of proofs", approximately $0.3 per 1M instructions; bulk purchases can be made monthly, reducing costs by an additional 40%.
- Charging proof miners an 8% fee, creating a bilateral market.
Phases and Landscape
By Q4 2024, the testnet has processed 12 million proofs, with an average confirmation time of 0.8 seconds.
- In H1 2025, the mainnet will launch, aiming to capture 20% of the "cross-chain settlement" market outside of Ethereum L2, and then expand into borderless scenarios such as AI, IoT, and the metaverse.
