Overview

Conflux is a layer-1 blockchain platform that implements a novel Tree-Graph consensus mechanism aimed at solving the blockchain trilemma of scalability, security, and decentralization. The project was founded by Dr. Andrew Yao, a Turing Award winner, and launched its mainnet in 2020.

Intended Utility

The primary purpose of CFX is to serve as the native token of the Conflux Network, used for transaction fees, staking, and governance. The platform aims to bridge Eastern and Western crypto markets, with particular focus on Chinese markets, while maintaining regulatory compliance.

Actual Utility and Adoption

Conflux has demonstrated significant real-world utility through: 1) Integration with China's Blockchain-based Service Network (BSN), 2) Partnership with China Telecom for blockchain SIM cards, 3) Active development of cross-chain bridges and DeFi applications, 4) Implementation in various real-world use cases including NFT marketplaces and supply chain management.

Token Distribution and Governance

The initial token distribution allocated 35% to private sales, 14% to the foundation, 35% to mining rewards, and 16% to the team and advisors. Team tokens had a 4-year vesting period with quarterly unlocks, demonstrating commitment to long-term development.

Development Activity

The project maintains active development with regular updates to its core protocol. The GitHub repository shows consistent contributions, and the team regularly publishes technical updates and improvements to the network.

Revenue Model

The primary revenue streams come from transaction fees and network usage, which are distributed to validators and stakeholders in the network. The model does not involve interest-bearing mechanisms in its core protocol.
