Socket Protocol has launched Filler Vaults, a new primitive that addresses the capital requirements for market-makers in intent protocols.
- Filler Vaults provide a plug-and-play liquidity source for solvers
- Similar to HLP vault on HyperliquidX, but specifically designed for intents
- Separates capital provision from market-making skills
This development enables intent protocols to access ready liquidity without needing to source both capital and technical expertise simultaneously.
Intent protocols building on @SOCKETProtocol now have access to a powerful new primitive: Filler Vaults They're what the HLP vault is to @HyperliquidX, but for intents. x.com/vaibhavchellanā¦
Lots of learnings from @HyperliquidX but the biggest one for intents should be the success of HLP vaults. Intent markets rely on market-makers to fulfil user-orders, these entities need to have: - skill AND - capital naturally the intersection of these is hard to come by Due
Market-makers in intent protocols need both capital and skill, a rare combo. Filler Vaults solve the capital side, unlocking a plug-and-play source of liquidity for solvers. This is something intent protocols can now leverage on top of @SOCKETProtocol. Watch @letsgetonchain
1/2 Last week i co-authored a piece with @letsgetonchain on Filler Vaults, essentially HLP-style (@HyperliquidX) vaults that let solvers on intent protocols access liquidity without needing to supply it themselves. today, he's created a tutorial on how to build Filler Vaults

Chain Abstraction Emerges as Key Infrastructure for Web3 Development
Chain abstraction is gaining momentum as a crucial infrastructure component for web3 development. This technology aims to create seamless cross-chain experiences by: - Enabling developers to build applications that work across multiple blockchains without users needing to understand the underlying complexity - Improving scalability and adaptability of decentralized applications - Reducing friction in multi-chain interactions The push comes as Layer-2 solutions multiply, creating increased demand for unified user experiences. Developers are focusing on making blockchain interactions more intuitive and accessible while maintaining the benefits of decentralization. *Key Impact*: This shift could fundamentally change how users interact with blockchain applications, making the technology more accessible to mainstream adoption.
