GOAT Network has rolled out real-time proving.
With the launch of the BitVM2 Beta Testnet, real-time proving mitigates latency that slows withdrawals & liquidity flow, a concern for most Bitcoin rollups.
Real-time proving is an unlock for the network & capital-intensive BTCFi apps👇
We're delighted to announce a huge milestone: Real-Time Proving is now LIVE on GOAT Network:
With the release of our BitVM2 Beta Testnet, GOAT Network achieves provably real-time proving using a pipelined architecture and distributed prover network powered by Ziren - a state-of-the-art zkVM built by our tech lab/sister company @ProjectZKM.
Block proofs average ~2.6 seconds, aggregation proofs in ~2.7 seconds, and Groth16 SNARK proofs in ~10.38 seconds -- all running concurrently to ensure no bottlenecks build up over time.
This system is now fully operational. Every peg-out transaction on GOAT now shows a live UI of proof generation, from initial execution to recursive aggregation to final Groth16 verification.
What this enables:
Users can initiate withdrawals instantly, without proof delays.
That means operators maintain capital efficiency. No more waiting for queued proofs before unlocking funds.
In short, it's a massive step in our quest to become a true BitVM2-based Bitcoin Rollup...and thus inherit true Bitcoin-native security.

Background on @GOATRollup:
GOAT enables DeFi programmability & yield denominated in $BTC, using Bitcoin’s finality and security model.
Layering a zkVM over $BTC consensus & bridging via BitVM2, GOAT delivers a swift execution environment without altering Bitcoin’s base layer.
GOAT looks to tap into the massive idle $BTC capital pool, making $BTC a productive asset with non-inflationary yield.
Specifically, over 1.4M $BTC in U.S. ETFs & millions more in corporate and sovereign treasuries sit idle, capital that GOAT is looking to tap into and onboard.
Native $BTC Yield:
GOAT’s yield model distributes real yield driven by network activity rather than token emissions, sourced from:
- Transaction Fees
- Sequencer MEV
- DeFi Vaults
Real-Time Proving & BitVM2:
Traditional $BTC rollups have processed proofs sequentially with execution proofs first, then aggregation, then finally SNARKs, causing latency that slows withdrawals & liquidity flow.
GOAT’s Real-Time Proving instead runs all stages concurrently.
As soon as a block’s execution proof is ready (~2.6s), it is handed to aggregation (~2.7s) while the next block’s execution proof starts immediately.
Groth 16 proofs, which compress the final output to make verification more efficient, run in parallel (~10.38s).
The Real-Time Proving upgrade serves as an architectural unlock for capital-intensive BTCFi apps, reducing withdrawal latency and improving capital efficiency.
