According to official announcements, ZK verifiable computing platform Brevis has launched Pico Prism 2.0, now live on Ethereum mainnet blocks with the current 60 million gas limit. Benchmarking results show that under Ethereum mainnet’s current 60 million gas cap, Pico Prism 2.0 achieves an average proof time of 6.1 seconds per block, with 99.9% of blocks completing final proofs within 12 seconds. The entire system runs on two machines equipped with a total of 16 RTX 5090 GPUs, with a total hardware cost of approximately $100,000. Compared to Pico Prism 1.0, Pico Prism 2.0 delivers approximately 5.3x higher proof efficiency per block using only one-quarter of the hardware resources, further meeting the Ethereum Foundation’s two primary goals for real-time proving: “average proof latency under 10 seconds” and “local hardware cost under $100,000.” Previously, Brevis was selected for the Ethereum Foundation’s “On-Prem Proving Initiative,” a program launching in May 2026 aimed at testing whether ZK proofs can be scaled as decentralized infrastructure without reliance on a few cloud providers—the most realistic simulation to date of actual L1 zkEVM integration. Moving forward, Brevis will continue focusing on robustness.

Summary
Ethereum ecosystem news: The ZK platform Brevis has launched Pico Prism 2.0 on the Ethereum mainnet, processing 60 million gas per block. Proof times average 6.1 seconds, with 99.9% of blocks finalizing within 12 seconds. The system runs on two machines equipped with 16 RTX 5090 GPUs, costing approximately $100,000. It delivers 5.3x faster proof efficiency than version 1.0 while using 75% less hardware. Brevis joined the Ethereum Foundation’s On-Prem Proving Initiative in May 2026 to test real-time ZK proofs for decentralized infrastructure.
