How ProveX Works

ProveX replaces traditional intermediaries with mathematical proofs and smart contracts. No trusted third parties, no manual verification, no waiting—just cryptographic certainty and instant settlement.

The ProveX Process

1️⃣ Connect Wallet
2️⃣ Create Proof
3️⃣ Exchange Value
4️⃣ Instant Settle

Each transaction operates through an automated escrow system powered by zero-knowledge cryptography. Both parties prove their obligations mathematically, triggering instant settlement without any human intervention or trusted authority.

Step-by-Step Breakdown

🔗

Step 1

Connect Wallet

Link Your Digital Wallet

Connect your Web3 wallet (MetaMask, WalletConnect, Coinbase Wallet, etc.) to ProveX. This is your identity on the platform—no email, no password, no personal information required.

Key Point: ProveX never holds your funds. You maintain complete custody at all times. The wallet simply signs transactions to interact with smart contracts.

🔐

Step 2

Create Proof

Generate Zero-Knowledge Proof

Describe what you're trading (crypto, digital product, physical item, service) and generate a cryptographic proof of your commitment. This proof locks your assets into the smart contract escrow automatically.

What Gets Proven: Payment sent, item delivered, service completed, or any other obligation—all verifiable mathematically without revealing private details.

Step 3

Exchange Value

Complete the Transaction

Both parties fulfill their obligations. The buyer sends payment (crypto or proves traditional payment), and the seller delivers the item/service (digital delivery or proves physical shipment).

Protection: Smart contracts hold funds in escrow until both sides prove completion. Neither party can cheat—the math enforces fairness automatically.

Step 4

Instant Settle

Automatic Settlement

Once both proofs are verified on-chain (payment confirmed + delivery confirmed), the smart contract automatically releases funds to the seller and completes the trade. No manual approval needed—it happens in under 60 seconds.

Result: Transaction complete. Both parties satisfied. No intermediary fees, no waiting periods, no chargebacks, no disputes. Pure cryptographic certainty.

Real-World Example

🎨 Alice Sells a Digital Course

Alice creates an online course and wants to sell it for $200. She lists it on ProveX and generates a zero-knowledge proof proving she controls the course access credentials.

💳 Bob Wants to Buy

Bob finds Alice's course and commits $200 to the smart contract escrow. The funds lock automatically—Bob can't back out, but Alice can't access them yet either.

📧 Alice Delivers Access

Alice sends Bob the course login credentials off-chain (via email, encrypted message, or automated delivery system). She then generates a delivery proof on ProveX confirming access was granted.

✅ Bob Confirms Receipt

Bob logs into the course, confirms he received access, and submits his verification proof on-chain. The smart contract sees both proofs (payment + delivery) are valid.

⚡ Instant Settlement

Within seconds, the smart contract releases $200 to Alice and marks the trade complete. Total time: Under 2 minutes. Total fees: $0 platform fees (only ~$2 gas). No chargebacks possible. Transaction permanently recorded on-chain.

🎉 Both Parties Win

Alice keeps 100% of the sale ($200) instead of losing $40-60 to Gumroad/Teachable fees. Bob gets instant access with cryptographic proof of purchase. No middleman extracted value. Pure peer-to-peer commerce.

Technical Deep Dive

🔬 Zero-Knowledge Proofs

ZK-SNARKs (Zero-Knowledge Succinct Non-Interactive Argument of Knowledge) allow you to prove something is true without revealing why it's true. For ProveX, this means proving payment or delivery without exposing private transaction details, bank accounts, or personal information.

📜 Smart Contract Escrow

Funds lock into battle-tested EVM smart contracts that execute predetermined logic. No human can interfere, freeze, or redirect funds. The code is immutable, audited, and transparent. When conditions are met, settlement happens automatically—no exceptions, no manual approval needed.

⛓️ On-Chain Verification

Every proof, every transaction, every settlement is recorded on the blockchain. Fully auditable, permanently recorded, completely transparent. Yet zero-knowledge cryptography keeps your private details private while proving public facts publicly.

🛡️ Dispute Resolution

If proofs conflict or one party claims fraud, the system uses cryptographic challenge protocols. Provide evidence on-chain, let the math decide. No human arbitrators with biases—just verifiable facts and predetermined contract logic executing fairly every time.

🌐 Multi-Chain Support

ProveX deploys identical smart contracts across Ethereum, Polygon, BSC, Avalanche, and more. Trade assets on any EVM chain with the same security guarantees. Cross-chain bridges allow value movement between chains if needed.

🔓 Open Source Code

Every smart contract, every proof mechanism, every line of code is public on GitHub. Security researchers worldwide can audit, verify, and improve the protocol. No proprietary black boxes—complete transparency ensures trustlessness.
