Over the past few years of Web3 technology evolution, one team's development path is particularly noteworthy. They have released Celer Network and Brevis successively, which on the surface seem like two unrelated projects, but in reality, are technological iterations by the same group at different times, gradually improving the entire ecosystem from performance optimization to data trustworthiness.

Speaking of Celer Network, it is a key component of the infrastructure layer. The early team identified blockchain performance bottlenecks—transaction speed and cross-chain collaboration issues—that directly limit the scope of application development. Therefore, they launched the CELR token, focusing on off-chain scaling solutions. It uses state channels and cross-chain technology to enable assets and information to quickly cross different blockchains, essentially equipping blockchains with a "highway." During the years when DeFi was still in its rapid growth phase, this infrastructure support was quite critical.

But the team didn't stop there. As they continued, they realized that solving transmission speed alone was not enough. While smart contracts are powerful, their ability to access historical data is limited, which constrains the complexity of what contracts can do. Thus, a new direction emerged. Brevis was born, positioned as an intelligent verifiable computing platform, mainly focusing on "data" and "computing." It uses zero-knowledge proofs to enable smart contracts to access historical data and verify cross-chain states, effectively giving blockchains "thinking ability." Contracts are no longer limited to making decisions based solely on current block information but can call upon trusted historical data to make more complex judgments.

From Celer's "main arteries" to Brevis's "brain," this team’s layout in Web3 infrastructure is quite methodical. One solves liquidity efficiency, the other addresses data trustworthiness—both complement each other.
