According to Cointelegraph, ChainCatcher reports that Aurora co-founder Alex Shevchenko proposed that Intents architecture can solve the complexity of cryptocurrency operations. This model allows users to declare goals (such as "pay $5 to buy coffee"), with the backend system automatically handling wallet interactions, cross-chain routing, and transaction settlement, eliminating manual processes like addressing, Gas fees, and network selection.
The core innovation lies in separating interaction logic from the execution layer: users authenticate through wallet-free methods like biometric verification, smart contracts execute asset custody and on-chain settlement, while maintaining decentralized features such as proof of reserves. This architecture supports multi-scenario applications, including cross-chain asset portfolio management, dynamic yield strategies, and conditional micropayments, laying the foundation for AI financial agents.
Shevchenko emphasized that blockchain will truly move towards mainstream adoption when users can complete on-chain interactions without understanding underlying technology. The Intents-driven system, combined with AI assistants, will reshape the DeFi interaction paradigm, achieving a traditional financial-grade operational experience.
