NEAR Intents moves over $50M a day in cross chain volume and most users have no idea they're using it. Multiple major wallets route swaps through it without users knowing NEAR is involved. Integrators take a cut of every dollar they route so the distribution is self reinforcing. Users sign once regardless of which chains are involved. Solvers compete offchain to fill the order and settle through NEAR's MPC network which can execute natively on multiple chains including ones without smart contracts. However, onchain order flow is readable by default which means solvers and MEV bots can read every order before it settles. Confidential Intents changes this by encrypting transactions so that validators can confirm they're valid without ever seeing the amounts or routing. Even the validators processing the trades can't see what's inside them. The infrastructure is designed to be invisible.(Delphi Digital)
