币界网报道：Ryodan Systems AG has unveiled Intmax, a new Ethereum Layer 2 protocol that reduces data usage by 95% compared to traditional Layer 2 solutions. The protocol leverages zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs) to minimize on-chain data storage while maintaining security and decentralization. Intmax aims to address scalability challenges by optimizing transaction efficiency without compromising Ethereum's core principles. The team claims the protocol can process thousands of transactions per second while drastically lowering gas fees. Ryodan Systems, founded by former Ethereum Foundation researcher Leona Hioki, plans to open-source Intmax's codebase and launch a testnet in Q4 2023. The project has attracted attention from major Web3 investors, though specific funding details remain undisclosed. Intmax joins a competitive Layer 2 landscape that includes Arbitrum, Optimism, and zkSync, but distinguishes itself through its extreme data efficiency approach.
