#Solana行情走势解读 $ETH Want to understand the second half of the crypto industry? Listen to what top investors have to say



Recently, a16z Crypto released a heavyweight report with some very interesting core insights: the next wave of growth in crypto technology is no longer about racing to create new chains or speed, but about real-world application deployment and value carrying.

The report highlights several key directions. First is zero-knowledge proofs and other foundational technologies — as costs continue to decrease, these technologies, originally used only in blockchain, are now penetrating traditional internet, finance, and other industries, offering enormous potential. Second is the emergence of new incentive models, such as verifiable commitments and reward mechanisms enabled by cryptographic tools, transforming community participation from passive to active.

A turning point has arrived: the industry's narrative is shifting. Previously, everyone was talking about "which public chain is the fastest"

That's right, this wave has indeed shifted from just hype to real implementation. I'm optimistic about zero-knowledge proofs; once costs decrease, their applications will expand. But to be honest, no matter how good a16z's words sound, it still depends on whether people actually start using it. Right now, it still feels a bit speculative.

Everyone is talking about application implementation, but I see most projects are still just bragging. ZK technology has been talked about for years, but how many are actually using it? I believe in community incentive models; this area definitely has potential. Wait, what exactly does the a16z report say? Can you share a link? Don't just rely on rumors. But to be fair, shifting from a speed race to value storage is indeed the right direction... However, most people are still betting on which chain will go up, haha.

What the heck is this new concept again? It sounds pretty good, but the tricks are just like that. Zero-knowledge proof penetration? Someone has been hyping this up for a while, but when will it actually be implemented? I believe in the incentive model switch, but the key is who can truly retain users. I've heard too much about application implementation, but no money is coming in. a16z says whatever they want, but why is my fund still losing money?

To be honest, it's the same old "application implementation" tune, I'm tired of hearing it. But ZK definitely has some substance, and if it permeates traditional finance... never mind, it's just another round of hype cycle anyway.

It seems to be another round of the old tune of "application landing." a16z is right, but there's nothing new; the reduction in zero-knowledge proof costs has long been on the roadmap. The real issue is that those hyped-up incentive models are still just a bunch of empty promises.
