Beefy

**Linea Ignition has officially activated** with a strategic partnership between LineaBuild, Etherex, and Brevis ZK. The program aims to: - Boost **Total Value Locked (TVL)** across Linea DeFi protocols - Reward liquidity providers with competitive APYs - Strengthen the Linea ecosystem through native DEX integration **Etherex is already showing results** from the initiative, climbing in Linea rankings with increased user activity and TVL growth since the program's launch. The collaboration leverages Etherex as Linea's native decentralized exchange, while Brevis ZK provides zero-knowledge infrastructure support. Liquidity providers can now earn **$LINEA tokens** as rewards for participating in the ecosystem. This multi-partner approach represents a coordinated effort to enhance DeFi activity on the Linea network and create sustainable incentives for long-term liquidity provision.

**Beefy** has partnered with **Brevis** to integrate zero-knowledge proof technology into their Linea vaults, bringing transparent and trustless reward distribution to DeFi. **Key Features:** - **Trustless verification**: Every reward distribution is cryptographically verified on-chain - **ZK proofs**: Generated for all actions including deposits, trades, and fees - **Full transparency**: All rewards are accurate, trackable, and auditable - **Scalable technology**: Handles complex incentive structures efficiently The integration uses Brevis's **zkCoprocessor** to verify complex computations off-chain while maintaining on-chain proof verification. This addresses challenges in active liquidity management where tracking contributions and fair reward distribution can be complex. The partnership is part of the **Linea Ignition program**, leveraging Linea's fast and low-cost blockchain infrastructure for real-time ZK-powered rewards. **Access the vaults**: [beefy.com](http://beefy.com) **Learn about Brevis**: [brevis.network](http://brevis.network)
