Brevis (BREV) - The Infinite Compute Layer for Web3 and AI

Blockchains Are Stuck in a Computational Bottleneck#

Every transaction on Ethereum is executed over 800,000 times across the network. Not because it needs to be processed that many times, but because every node must verify the same computation independently. This replicated execution model creates an impossible ceiling: blockchains can never outpace a single machine running the same workload. DEXes cannot offer personalized trading fees. Lending protocols cannot calculate rewards based on user history. AI agents cannot prove their outputs are trustworthy. The very architecture that makes blockchains secure also makes them computationally primitive.

What If Verification Could Replace Re-Execution?#

Brevis eliminates the computational bottleneck through zero-knowledge proofs. One machine performs the heavy computation off-chain and generates a cryptographic proof that the result is correct. Instead of every node re-executing the same calculation, they simply verify a tiny proof in milliseconds. Personalized DEX fees, trustless reward distributions, and verifiable AI outputs become possible. The impossible choice between power and transparency disappears.

What does Brevis do?#

🖥️ Pico zkVM: Brevis’s flagship zero-knowledge virtual machine proves the correct execution of any program and composes results with recursive aggregation. The modular architecture integrates specialized coprocessors that deliver breakthrough performance, proving 99.6% of Ethereum blocks in under 12 seconds with an average of 6.9 seconds on consumer-grade hardware using 64 GPUs.

📊 ZK Data Coprocessor: A production-grade pipeline that reads historical on-chain data across supported networks, performs complex computations off-chain, and returns results with validity proofs. Contracts consume these proofs directly for features like VIP trading programs, loyalty rewards, fee discounts, and active-liquidity policies without trusting external servers.

🏪 ProverNet Marketplace: A decentralized marketplace that matches diverse ZK workloads with specialized provers through the TODA auction mechanism. Applications submit proof requests with explicit constraints while provers compete based on hardware capabilities, latency, and stake. Price discovery happens through auctions while correctness is enforced by on-chain verification.

🔐 Verifiable AI Infrastructure: Brevis enables AI applications to prove their outputs are trustworthy through ZK proofs. AI agents managing treasury funds or executing trades can generate cryptographic certificates that their computations followed the correct logic, eliminating the black box problem in autonomous AI systems.

⛓️ Cross-Chain Security: ZK proofs enable trustless bridging and shared security across blockchain ecosystems. State can be verified across chains without relying on validator committees or trusted intermediaries, using cryptographic verification instead of social consensus.

Why This Team Inspires Confidence#

Production-Scale Deployment: Brevis has generated over 291 million proofs across 40+ partners and served 205,000+ unique users. This is not theoretical technology but infrastructure running at scale across major DeFi protocols, L2 ecosystems, and wallet providers.

Industry-Leading Performance: Pico Prism achieves 99.6% real-time proving coverage for Ethereum blocks under 12 seconds, with 96.8% under 10 seconds meeting the Ethereum Foundation’s benchmark. The 3.4x performance-per-dollar improvement over competitors demonstrates genuine technical leadership.

Major Protocol Partnerships: Uniswap Foundation awarded Brevis a $9 million grant to build trustless gas rebates for v4 router integrations. PancakeSwap, QuickSwap, MetaMask, Linea, and Euler have all launched production features powered by Brevis infrastructure.

Comprehensive Ecosystem: Over $1.44 billion in trading volume has flowed through Brevis-powered hooks. The Linea Ignition program distributed 1 billion LINEA tokens with all reward computation verified through Brevis ZK proofs across 61,900 unique addresses.

Strong Backing: Brevis is part of the YZi Labs portfolio with support from leading crypto investors. The token launched on Binance with HODLer Airdrop distribution and quickly expanded to Coinbase, Kraken, Bybit, OKX, Upbit, and other major exchanges.

What to Know Before You Buy Brevis#

1. Payment Medium for Verifiable Compute

All fees in Brevis ProverNet are paid in BREV. This covers proof generation for zkVM execution, ZK Data Coprocessor queries, recursive aggregation, verification, settlement, and auxiliary services. As more applications integrate Brevis, demand for BREV increases proportionally.

2. Staking Collateral for Provers

Provers must stake BREV to receive work assignments in the marketplace. Larger effective stake with good historical performance pushes provers higher in the matching queue for critical jobs. Token holders can delegate BREV to professional provers and share in proving fees.

3. Real-Time Ethereum Proving Pioneer

Brevis is among the select few capable of proving Ethereum execution fast enough to enable base-layer verification. This positions BREV at the center of Ethereum’s transition toward lean consensus where ZK proofs replace replicated execution.

4. Expanding Use Case Portfolio

From intelligent DeFi with personalized fees to verifiable AI inference and prediction market settlement, Brevis infrastructure powers diverse applications. Each new use case generates proving workload that translates into BREV demand.

5. Governance Rights

BREV holders participate in setting protocol parameters including acceptable proof sizes, security levels, slashing percentages, and auction market fees through on-chain governance processes.
