Recently, news of Fed Chairman Powell possibly resigning has caused quite a stir in the market. This news could lead to two entirely different outcomes: one is a significant rate cut to stimulate asset prices to rise, and the other is a power vacuum that could lead to market turmoil. However, beyond this macroeconomic storm, a more fundamental technological revolution is quietly happening in the Boundless network.



The Boundless network is transforming zero-knowledge proofs from an esoteric cryptographic concept into a standardized service that developers can easily access. According to a recent DApp team exchange meeting, after integrating with Boundless, application performance improved by an average of 5.2 times, while costs dropped to below one-third of traditional solutions. This is not an exaggeration, but a tangible technological dividend.

It is particularly worth mentioning the "proof reuse" design of Boundless, which allows the results of a single computation to be reused in different scenarios, effectively reducing redundant costs. It is estimated that this design can help projects reduce annual operating costs by nearly 30%.

The core of Boundless is a carefully designed verifiable computing market. In this market, ZKC not only serves as fuel but also represents equity. Provers, validators, and developers collectively participate in governance, with revenue closely tied to network usage, creating a virtuous cycle of "the more you use, the more you earn."

Currently, the Boundless testnet has generated $380 million in computing power, providing services for 150 DApps and collaborating with multiple AI projects. It is expected to support 300,000 on-chain model inferences next year. This means that users can not only call upon AI but also verify whether the AI's behavior is fair—something that traditional cloud services cannot provide as a guarantee of trust.

Although Gartner predicts that the relevant market size will reach $28 billion by 2027, this may just be a starting point. With the increasing demand for "verifiability" in fields such as AI, IoT, and DeFi, protocols like Boundless are likely to become the cornerstone of trust in the digital world.

Of course, Boundless also faces challenges such as balancing speed and cost, and weighing decentralization against efficiency. However, the team has proven that their direction is correct — encapsulating complex cryptography into user-friendly APIs is key to driving technology adoption.

For developers, it might be a good idea to deploy a Demo on the testnet; you will be surprised at how easy it is to deploy ZK applications. For investors, patience is required—the value of infrastructure does not lie in short-term price rises, but in the gradual accumulation through large-scale practical applications day after day.

While the whole world is paying attention to Powell's comments, Boundless is demonstrating through practical actions that the power of code far exceeds words.

It's nice to take shelter under a big tree; every week, I can make a dozen trips back and forth.

Here we go again with the empty promises. After all this time, it's still better to just copy Solana.
