Intents

A new paradigm where users specify what they want to achieve (the intent) rather than how to achieve it (specific transactions).

Definition

A new paradigm where users specify what they want to achieve (the intent) rather than how to achieve it (specific transactions). A solver network then figures out the optimal execution path. Instead of approving, swapping, and bridging manually, you just say 'get me the best price for this swap across any chain.'
