MetaMask Collaborates with Brevis to Unveil Zero-Knowledge Proof-Based Reward Program

MetaMask, a widely used cryptocurrency wallet, has partnered with Brevis, a cutting-edge provider of zero-knowledge (ZK) proof infrastructure, to launch an innovative reward program. Officially announced on October 15, this strategic collaboration, which also includes Linea, targets users of MetaMask's card services by introducing a seamless and transparent rewards system.

The program allows participants to earn a fixed annual return of 2.4% by either depositing or borrowing USDC through Aave’s Linea marketplace. Perhaps most appealing to users is the lack of an application process. Rewards are automatically calculated and applied to existing positions, with calculations occurring every four hours. Eligible users can claim their rewards conveniently via the Incentra platform.

Advanced Technology: How Zero-Knowledge Proofs Power the System

At the core of the program lies Brevis’s advanced off-chain ZK proof technology. Brevis calculates the time-weighted average balances of both collateral and debt positions held by users. Utilizing this data, Brevis generates zero-knowledge proofs to efficiently verify three critical aspects:

1. Address Eligibility: Ensuring the user meets all required conditions for rewards.
2. Position Validation: Confirming the user’s positions existed during the specified reward period.
3. Reward Accuracy: Verifying the reward calculations align exactly with the recorded on-chain data.

Through this process, the generated ZK proofs undergo validation on-chain via smart contracts deployed on the Linea network. This decentralized approach ensures a high standard of transparency and accuracy, eliminating the need for centralized service providers while fully securing data integrity.

MetaMask has emphasized that this collaboration not only exemplifies the strength of Brevis’s ZK proof technology but also demonstrates its scalability. By handling intensive computations off-chain and using cryptographic proofs to validate outcomes on-chain, the program achieves advanced functionality without compromising decentralization.

Engage and Earn: Upcoming 'Field Operations' Event

Starting November 3, the ecosystem will grow even more interactive with the launch of the “Field Operations” event. This initiative invites users to engage with decentralized protocols, including MetaMask, that integrate Brevis’s infrastructure. As part of the event, participants can earn exclusive “Brevis Sparks,” enhancing the engagement and reward opportunities within the platform.

Transforming Rewards with Zero-Knowledge Proofs

This partnership between MetaMask, Brevis, and Linea marks a significant milestone in the application of zero-knowledge proof technology to decentralized finance. By combining transparency, scalability, and efficiency, the program sets a new standard for crypto rewards. The collaboration not only highlights Brevis’s technical capabilities but also illustrates how sophisticated decentralized systems can drive user-focused innovation in the blockchain space.
