Almost all existing 'prover' networks are focused on Validity proofs; This is where early demand has been seen. But is it total demand? == Want the best == If the provers are specialized proving scheme that can earn a premium, they beat generic schemes on all tasks. Decentralization in this case is to make sure the innovators in the network get paid (DeSci of sorts but based on maths). Same applies to advanced hardware provers. 1/2

== Need to plugin to a network == DePin and other web3 tools often need to integrate with cryptographically secure tooling. == Need privacy == Centralized providers require that you send data to them (not private). In special cases of delegated proving this is fine. In other cases this is not acceptable. == Need to run proofs locally == In this case users are benefiting from aggregation and posting to L1, this is what the network specializes in. The network is used to amortize costs among the users. Some examples are zkGames or zkBadge products (we are dog fooding one). Bottom line — who are the customers and what do they want? The incentive 'network' needs to support them. 2/2
