DeFi Using Boundless: The Real Effect of Gas Savings Many DeFi protocols have begun testing Boundless's proof service, and the most noticeable change is a significant reduction in gas fees. Exactly how much can this savings actually be? Using testnet data, we can provide a realistic calculation. Previously, DeFi protocols using ZK for private transactions incurred prohibitively high gas fees. For example, on Ethereum, a single private transaction can cost around $100-200 in gas fees, primarily due to the computationally intensive nature of proof generation on-chain. By using Boundless, proof generation is moved off-chain, and aggregation technology is used to combine multiple proofs into a single transaction, reducing gas fees to $10-20, a direct savings of around 90%. For users, a private transaction that previously cost $200 can now be completed for $20, a significantly improved user experience. Batch transactions can achieve even greater savings. For example, a DeFi protocol needs to process 100 private transactions. Previously, each transaction cost $100, totaling $10,000. With Boundless, the proofs for all 100 transactions are aggregated, requiring only one verification. This reduces gas fees to approximately $50, saving a total of $9,950, or just $0.50 per transaction. During the testnet, one DeFi protocol used this approach to process 1,000 transactions for only $300 in gas, compared to over $30,000 without Boundless. Beyond private transactions, other DeFi scenarios can also benefit from gas savings. For example, collateral verification in lending protocols previously cost $50 per transaction, but now only costs $5 with Boundless. Order matching on DEXs previously cost $200 for batch matching of 100 orders, but now only costs $20. Furthermore, computation speed is improved: a collateral verification that previously took 10 minutes now takes only one minute, eliminating the need for users to wait for extended periods. Gas fees are a major pain point for DeFi users, especially small-scale users, who often find themselves deterred by fees exceeding transaction amounts. Boundless's lowering of gas fees will allow small-scale users to utilize DeFi's ZK features, such as small, private transfers and small-amount lending, expanding DeFi's reach to a wider audience. For DeFi protocols, lower gas fees, increased user adoption, and naturally increased transaction volume are key factors—a win-win outcome. @boundless_network #Boundless $ZKC {future}(ZKCUSDT) $BTC {future}(BTCUSDT) $ETH {future}(ETHUSDT)

LINK wins with empty orders, seizes the plummeting market and earns a lot!!!The overall sentiment of the cryptocurrency market has rebounded, and the inflow of funds has slowed down, especially for old DeFi assets that are generally facing pressure. In such a market environment, although LINK has experienced a slight rebound, its upward momentum is insufficient, and the technical aspect shows signs of weak rebound. Compared to the overall market trend, LINK's performance is slightly lagging behind and lacks new catalysts to drive price increases. In the short term, without strong support, a price correction is almost inevitable.#LINK # AAVE # ETH # Crypto friendly Uyeda takes over SEC # What will happen to the market after Trump's inauguration$ LINK $AAVE $ETH
