New primitive: intent-based architectures

This sounds like a higher-level abstraction layer on top of existing DeFi primitives. While it simplifies things for users, it also introduces another layer of potential attack vectors. What's the trade-off in terms of trust assumptions?

I've been following this closely. The idea of abstracting away the complex transaction routing is huge for user experience. Imagine not having to worry about MEV or slippage as much.

Could this also lead to more efficient capital utilization if solvers are incentivized to find the optimal path across various protocols? The current fragmented liquidity is a nightmare.

Agreed, UX is a big win. I think arbitrage and complex multi-chain swaps are immediate applications where this could shine. The challenge is definitely around security and making sure the intent isn't exploited.
