The core of Boundless mainnet is verifiable proof of work (PoVW) — the first general incentive mechanism used for ZK proofs. Boundless measures the complexity of each proof and provides precise rewards based on the work contributions of the prover. Provers lock ZK coins (ZKC) as collateral to ensure the security of the proof and earn ZKC rewards for generating the proof. This dual role makes ZKC a pillar for ZK proofs across the entire network, providing collateral for proofs throughout the ecosystem and offering an incentive mechanism for maintaining network reliability.
