The first community research carried out by 0xFust from CashmereeLabs was that of GAS WARS and the results will shock you. @union_build 

After X months of benchmarking across major bridge protocols, we now have hard data that exposes the true cost of cross chain operations.

The Numbers Don't Lie

Union Protocol: XXXXXXX total gas cost 

•50% lower than LayerZero's minimal settings
•65% lower than Wormhole
•83% lower than Axelar

This isn't incremental improvement  it's a complete shift in cross chain efficiency.

What Makes This Different?

While other protocols struggle with heavy destination side costs (looking at you, Axelar's 848K+ gas usage), Union maintains balance through its zkp-based approach. Our critical path methodology eliminates the overhead that hurts traditional bridge architectures.

The Bottom Line
For developers and users, this means:
•Much lower transaction costs for cross chain operations
•Faster settlement times with optimized gas usage
•Affordable bridging that doesn't drain your wallet as volume increases
Note: Production costs may see up to XX% variance depending on asset types and packet batching  still maintaining our efficiency advantage.
Community Power

This research shows something important: 

The community identifying real problems and providing data backed solutions. 0xFust's X month benchmarking effort gives  the foundation to build better infrastructure for everyone

What's Next?
This is just the start. Union's testnet is proving that efficient, secure cross chain infrastructure isn't just possible it's here. As we move toward mainnet, these efficiency gains will compound across the entire ecosystem.
Ready to test the future of bridging?
