" summary

Succinct presents a zero-knowledge light client protocol that verifies Ethereum consensus on other EVM chains for about 300K gas per update, running on mainnet since March and securing the Gnosis bridge with roughly $40M TVR. Telepathy sends arbitrary messages (used by Hashi, Compound grant integration, EigenLayer, Nouns) with client head updates roughly every six minutes per epoch, and the new State Query protocol (live on testnet, mainnet ~1 month) lets contracts pull view-function results for use cases like NFT-gated voting.
