In 2024 we saw a significant increase in activity on the chain, which indicates an impressive growth of user interest. Blockchain technology, however, continues to be confronted with challenges such as congestion, fragmentation and the centralization of Layer-2 solutions. With the prospect of favorable regulations and an increased institutional interest after the inauguration of Donald Trump, it is necessary to take on these challenges to be ready for the upcoming wave of adoption.
Recently marked in the 2025 Annual Crypto Scriptions By Messari, intention-oriented approaches are on the rise as an important evolutionary shift that will play a crucial role in improving accessibility and efficiency for users.
Insight into the intention-centric infrastructure
Intentions are a declarative tool that works with a decentralized peer-to-peer network to find and fulfill counterparties. They enable users to mention their desired results without explaining how to get those results. This simplifies interactions and offers an experience that is comparable to Web2 applications such as Uber and offering the automation benefits of AI without the associated centralization and privacy problems. Intentions are in fact a crucial primitive for unlocking the true potential of AI and already see a strong acceptance in different AI -USE cases.
With intentical Defi, users can define complex goals, such as trading one Ethereum (ETH) for USD Coin (USDC) at the best rate about a specified time frame, without setting parameters such as routing or gas costs. The system treats the complex details, such as identifying optimum liquidity pools, securing the best rates and determining the most efficient implementation path. This targeted, automated approach is a huge upgrade of the user experience.
Intent-oriented infrastructure also improves scalability by having the most calculation and data storage on the peripherals of users take place, reducing congestion on networks such as Ethereum. In 2024, rising transaction costs led Many users to leave in chains emphasize the need for scalable solutions that lower costs and improve interactions with the blockchain. In addition, generalized intentions can tackle the fragmentation in the Multichain landscape, allowing applications to work seamlessly in various networks. Users can easily mention their desired results without having to navigate through the complexity of different chains and protocols.
Intentions will unlock the next wave of Dapp -Innovation
Users nowadays interact with a wide range of applications, from social media platforms to online market places. Web3 applications that are fully built on decentralized infrastructure represent a small fraction of this. This is largely due to the limitations of the current blockchain infrastructure of the generation, in which DAPPs are built on virtual machines that require step-by-step instructions. Virtual machines are unable to perform complex applications such as Uber, Discord or Tinder, so a new approach is needed if we want to compete with web2 innovation.
Generalized intentions offer a solution. They make a new wave of Dapp’s possible that can match and even exceed the refinement and UX of Web2 while staying faithful to the ethos of Web3. Imagine a fully decentralized disagreement with complex permission, privacy and interoperability in various security domains and onion. In the example of Uber, generalized intentions can be used to create a single app that collects all service providers in one user interface, so that users do not have to switch between different Ride-Hailing apps to find the fastest or cheapest way between point A and point B. Builders who already use the userized use of alternative dating apps are used to make useralized assassies with Zerassocsocsocs. they can be indicated.
In the case of Defi, generalized intentions are a powerful new primitive that can help industry develop new applications and eliminate dependence on centralized infrastructure. Fully decentralized, multidimensional order book Dexs are just one promising example. Traditional orderbook Dexs depends on centralized infrastructure for discovering counterparties and only allows trade based on one -dimension: price. With generalized intentions you can exchange based on extra dimensions such as time preferences or possibilities, so that the door is opened for much more complex options. The best of all is that you can do it in a fully decentralized way.
The next steps of the industry
If we really want Web2 users in web3 on board web3, we have to match the intuition and ease of use to which people are used to. Indeed, users should not even know that they use a web3 application or understand the blockchain technology under the hood. By engaging simple, automated experiences, built-in crypto rails, privacy and user control over data, full decentralization and interoperability, Web3 can not only agree, but also exceed the promise of Web2.
Generalized intentions are uniquely equipped to reach this future. By fading the lines between Web2 and Web3 and enabling users to concentrate on the results they want to achieve, the intentions offer a promising path ahead. The most important thing is that they enable the space to compete with the usability of Web2 without sacrificing the core principles of decentralization, resilience, verifeability and sovereignty of users.
