Brevis’ Pico Prism Achieves Ethereum Real-Time zkVM Proofs on 64 RTX 5090 GPUs — 99.6% in 12s

COINOTAG reported on October 15 that Brevis has demonstrated its multi-GPU zkVM implementation, Pico Prism, producing Ethereum real-time proofs on consumer-grade hardware. In benchmark tests using 64 RTX 5090 GPUs, Brevis documented completion of 99.6% of an Ethereum L1 block proof within 12 seconds, with 96.8% of proofs meeting the Ethereum Foundation’s 10-second standard. A prior September 1 trial under a 45M gas limit showed an average proof time of 6.9 seconds.

Compared to the SP1 Hypercube baseline, Prism’s coverage improved markedly—rising from 40.9% at a 36M gas limit to 98.9%—while average proof latency dropped from 10.3 to 6.04 seconds and estimated GPU costs fell from $256,000 to $128,000. Brevis says it plans to lower requirements to 16 RTX 5090 cards and is targeting 99% real-time proof performance with a view toward tighter Ethereum L1 integration.
