The best submissions earn serious bonus Sparks and get featured across our official channels.

  • Infographics
  • Twitter/X threads
  • Memes 
  • Explainer graphics
  • Animations

Topics you can cover:

  • What is Brevis and what problem does it solve?
  • How does Pico zkVM and ZK Data Coprocessor work together?
  • What are the product’s unique strengths? 
  • What’s the difference between Pico zkVM and the ZK Data Coprocessor?
  • How does Brevis enable features that were impossible before?

Judging Criteria

Submissions will be evaluated on three factors:

Quality & Creativity (50%): Is the content well-made? Is it engaging? Does it stand out?

Accuracy (30%): Does it correctly explain the technology? Is the information accurate?

Engagement (20%): How much traction did it get? Likes, retweets, views all count.

Our team will review all submissions and select winners based on these criteria. The decision is final, but we’ll do our best to recognize as many quality submissions as possible through honorable mentions.
