What does intent-centric mean?

‍

Intent-centric refers to protocols and platforms designed to act upon a user's intentions (or desired outcomes) rather than requiring them to handle all the detailed steps involved.

‍

Intent-centric builders simplify user interactions by focusing on what they want to achieve rather than how it is executed.

‍

For example, intent-centric builders on the blockchain may take a user's intent to purchase a token at the best available price and handle the routing, Exchange selection, optimizing gas fees, managing cross-chain interoperability and slippage monitoring.

‍

Why did Hedgemony choose to build on Monad?

‍

Hedgemony decided to build on Monad for several reasons including speed, settlement and cost:

‍

• 5x faster than Solana

• 840x quicker than Ethereum

• Near-zero transaction fees

‍

They are one of the first protocols to be launched on Monad Pad, a decentralized launchpad specifically designed for introducing projects to the Monad blockchain. This early mover advantage places them atop the Monad stack of applications as the go-to trading interface for the blockchain.

‍

By leveraging Monad's breakthrough infrastructure, Hedgemony aims to settle complex transactions with 1 second finality.

Monad's resourceful execution architecture paves the way for bleeding edge applications which leverage high frequency DLOBs.

‍

DLOB, Distributed Limit Order Books, is a decentralized version of traditional limit order books used by centralized exchanges (CEXs). They help facilitate low slippage and swift efficiency.
