【Block Beats】Recently, some interesting transfer signals have appeared on-chain. Data shows that the liquidity pool of “100 ETH” scale on Tornado Cash has seen its TVL plummet by 40% over the past week, during which a total of 120,600 ETH were transferred. Who is behind this major move? On-chain analysis points to crypto developer Richard Heart—this fellow has transferred 162,937 ETH through Tornado in the past 4 months.
There’s a story behind the numbers. These transfers are highly correlated with the new project ProveX he is incubating. What exactly is ProveX? Simply put, it aims to build a completely trustless peer-to-peer cryptocurrency trading and settlement system using zero-knowledge proof (ZKP) technology. It sounds quite radical—no intermediaries, no need to trust third parties, with transaction counterparties interacting directly. In an era where DeFi has already been hyped into a mess by various protocols, whether this “ultimate P2P” approach can break through remains to be seen in terms of subsequent technology and ecosystem implementation.
