 **2026**: Establish a decentralized prover market that catalyzes direct peer-to-peer connections between consumers and nodes, significantly enhancing the integrity and efficiency across decentralized ecosystems. This market will facilitate direct peer-to-peer connections, fostering a permisionless ecosystem for data consumers. The key to this ecosystem is the verifiable compute that underlies every service, ensuring that each transaction and interaction within the Stateless infrastructure is trustworthy and transparent. This initiative, grounded in a blockchain-agnostic ZK infrastructure, enables Stateless to substantiate any transaction on any network supported by the protocol.
