Integration Grants Application '25: IQ6900
Application Introduction
Name of the project: IQ6900
Problem statement in the existing Conflux ecosystem and the proposed solution:
The high cost of blockchain transactions remains a barrier to scalability and mainstream adoption. While existing Layer 2 solutions reduce fees, they often introduce security risks, inefficiencies, or require centralized trust assumptions. IQ6900 solves this by implementing an advanced transaction compression technology that, when working in tandem with ZK rollups, reduces transaction fees by 99.89 percent. This allows developers and users on Conflux to interact on-chain at a fraction of the current cost, significantly improving scalability and accessibility.
Alignment of the project with the Conflux Network:
IQ6900 enhances Conflux by providing a transaction compression layer that integrates seamlessly with its high-throughput architecture. This ensures that developers building on Conflux can offer lower-cost applications while maintaining decentralization, security, and efficiency.
Benefit to the Conflux Ecosystem:
Reduces gas fees for users, making Conflux-based applications more competitive.
Provides an incentive for developers to build on Conflux by lowering operational costs.
Enhances the network’s attractiveness to enterprises and DeFi applications.
Economic Benefit:
Increased transaction volume due to lower costs, driving on-chain activity.
Greater adoption by users and developers who were previously deterred by fees.
Improved liquidity and ecosystem growth as a result of broader usability.
Competitive Edge: IQ6900 stands out from other scaling solutions by offering unmatched transaction compression, leading to a 99.89 percent cost savings without compromising decentralization or security. Our mainnet deployments with SOON Protocol and Taraxa validate the real-world effectiveness of our solution.
