DEEP DIVE INTO @anoma 1/How Anoma Is Building Smarter Chains ♦ blockchains are powerful but they’re still 'dumb' they do exactly what you tell them to with no flexibility or room for improvement. today, you must specify everything upfront: who you’re transacting with, how much, what route, what contract this makes sense, of course, but what if something brakes? the chain will follow orders even when they do not make sense (remember all your fail TXs?) that’s the transaction-centric model chains use today and it's precise and powerful, but rather primitive Anoma is building something radically different. 2/The Problem with Transaction-Centric Blockchains 🧩 currently, chains assumes users are perfectly rational and able to express their preferences with absolute clarity at all times (yeah, sure) but think about how people actually operate: - you want to swap tokens at the best rate but have no idea where the best price is - you want better gas prices but can't monitor gas 24/7 - you want to buy a token but only if it dips -20% in the next 24 hours each of these scenarios involves preferences and uncertainty, not something fixed none of that is possible in traditional blockchain transactions 3/ How Intent-Centric Architecture Works 💫 now, @anoma flips the script instead of asking you to submit rigid transactions, it lets you submit intents: you tell it exactly what you want, and it figures out how to get it - I want to buy 1 ETH using my USDT, only if the price is below $3,200 and gas is low this intent doesn’t specify the DEX or route or timing, it leaves those details open Anoma will coordinate and create the solution dynamically the result? a blockchain that gives you exactly what you asked for and it goes even deeper Intent A + Intent B + Intent C can all be matched together even if no two parties know each other directly the network finds paths that wouldn’t be visible in a transaction-only system unlocking better liquidity, reduced fragmentation and radically improved UX 4/ Final Take 🧠 Anoma is redefining what blockchains can be, getting us a step closer to what crypto was always about: infrastructure for human freedom and coordination. in the near future you'll interact with blockchains by expressing your intentions instead of giving instructions and Anoma might be the protocol that made it possible 🫡
