Staking and Network Emissions
zkVerify employs a Nominated Proof-of-Stake (NPoS) consensus mechanism.
The protocol begins with an annual emission rate of 2.5% to fund ongoing network security and reward stakers. As the network grows, transaction fees also contribute to staking rewards, creating a direct link between protocol success and token holder value
VFY Token Utility
Transaction Fees
As the native gas token, VFY is used to pay for all network transactions, primarily for submitting and verifying proofs.
Network Security & Staking
Token holders can stake VFY to participate as validators or nominators, securing the network and earning staking rewards.
Governance
VFY holders can vote on key protocol upgrades, parameter changes, and other governance proposals.
Ecosystem Incentives
A portion of the token supply is allocated to grants and other programs to encourage developer activity and community growth.
Addressing the $1.5 Billion ZK Movement in a Single Opportunity
The promise of ZK technology stretches across vast needs from gaming to supply chains. With each new foray, industries continue to discover novel use cases for powerful methods enabled by tools like zkVerify, and this trend is only accelerating.
Use Case #1
The Multi-chain Reality
A multi-chain future requires universal verification. zkVerify connects projects across diverse blockchains, allowing for true scalability.
Ethereum, Solana, and countless other Layer 1 and Layer 2 blockchains, all with different proof systems present a splintered environment. Users and organizations demand that applications work everywhere. VFY provides seamless verification for everyone.
Use Case #2
AI and a Crisis of Trust
Every AI model needs trusted verification. From healthcare to finance, VFY powers the zkVerify trust engine across industries.
AI becomes more ubiquitous by the day. Yet, for users and institutions, placing trust in these platforms is a growing concern. Deepfakes can reach millions of people in an afternoon, LLMs have little to no data provenance. As of Q2 2025 the European Union is already drafting mandates for ZK technology in digital identification. Meanwhile, Google has introduced ZK proofs into their age verification process. This isn't something coming down the pike – the need for provable AI integrity is here.
Use Case #3
Privacy Legislation
Global privacy laws demand proof without Personally Identifiable Information (PII) exposure. VFY, zkVerify's native token enables swift, compliant verification for jurisdictions worldwide.
GDPR, CCPA and a host of additional privacy protections are fast becoming regulatory touchstones on every continent. It's not just that companies need proof of compliance to appease regulators, it's understood that safeguarding user data is also how they win in the marketplace. Zero-Knowledge tech is the only solution that satisfies both transparency and privacy – VFY is uniquely positioned to remain at the forefront of the ZK space. So, how substantial is the protocol that VFY complements?
Technical Innovation and the zkVerify Difference
A dynamic verification infrastructure that adapts to market demands
- Versatile Architecture - Full support across generated proofs. SNARKs, STARKs, and future-proof for systems as they emerge. Your VFY support isn't tied to one ZK-proof type becoming dominant in the marketplace.
- Accelerated Performance - zkVerify users enjoy millisecond verification times with dedicated space on its proprietary chain. No competing transactions bring the network to a standstill.
- Universal Blockchain Integration - Verifies Groth16, FFLONK, RISC0, UltraPlonk, Plonky2 across Ethereum, Solana, Bitcoin L2s and more via modular design.
- Dedicated Security - Purpose-built to be a dedicated verification blockchain, zkVerify's security is paramount when balanced against those designated for general-purpose.
- The Network Effect - zkVerify addresses the projected market trilogy with rapid verification, universal proof capabilities, and reduced costs. This enables more applications to create greater demand, generating more fees for VFY holders inside a compounding cycle.
- Future-Proof Design - Simply put, our runtime upgrades enable easy addition of new proof-types on demand. What's more, zkVerify evolves right alongside the ZK ecosystem.
The Zero-Knowledge Proof generated in the user's browser cryptographically proves several facts to a verifier without revealing the underlying data.
