Boundless's first network upgrade, "Surge," is now live

BlockBeats News, May 15th, Boundless announced that its first network-wide upgrade Surge has officially launched. This upgrade is not just a simple Prover node update, but a performance and cost optimization for the entire network. Key highlights of this upgrade:

Increased Proving Capacity: Maximum network proving capacity increased by 25%;

Reduced Proving Costs: Proving costs for various workloads reduced by up to 50%;

Significant RPC Cost Reduction: Prover RPC costs reduced by up to 99%;

Entering the Multi-chain Era: Boundless officially supports multi-chain proving, with the initial integration of Taiko and Base.

Surge marks Boundless's key transition from a "single-chain proving network" to a "multi-chain proving infrastructure." The same Prover node can now simultaneously serve multiple chains (currently Taiko and Base), greatly improving resource utilization.

Benefiting from Boundless's open market mechanism, the performance improvement and cost reduction on the supply side will directly benefit the demand side—all Proof Requestors will enjoy higher performance and lower-cost proving services.
