Ionix Chain Presale Surpasses $6.8 Million as Quantum AI Consensus Gains Traction
Ionix Chain is positioning itself as an AI-native Layer-1 blockchain, aiming to handle heavy AI and DeFi activity without congestion or rising costs. The project's Quantum AI Consensus combines elements of Proof-of-Stake with Directed Acyclic Graph structures for both security and scalability. As of mid-August 2026, the public presale is in Stage 21, with the native IONX token available near $0.035.
Fundraising has surpassed $6.8 million toward an approximate $11 million target, placing progress at a high seventy percent range. The project reports audits from CertiK and SolidProof, scoring 90/100 and 85/100 respectively. Ionix Chain plans to deliver throughput above 500,000 transactions per second, near-zero fees, and sub-second finality.
The native IONX token has multiple uses once the network is operational, including paying transaction fees, enabling staking with up to 12 percent APY after mainnet, supporting governance participation, providing access to planned on-chain AI services, and qualifying non-custodial holders for a reported 15 percent daily share of network gas-fee revenue.
