The simplified workflow maintains security while dramatically improving user experience across all major DeFi functions.

The integration allows users to: - Access zkSwap's liquidity through OpenOcean's platform - Buy tokens like $ZF and $LONG directly via Monad Explorer's new Swap feature This partnership expands zkSwap's reach beyond zkSync Era, bringing their liquidity to Monad users through established infrastructure partners.
