THORChain to Implement Intent-Based Trading Through Rujira Network
🤖 THORChain Gets Mind Reading Powers
THORChain is set to integrate intent-based trading functionality through a collaboration with Rujira Network.
Intent-based trading represents a significant shift from traditional transaction methods:
- Users specify desired outcomes rather than exact steps
- System automatically finds optimal execution routes
- Reduces complexity of cross-chain operations
- Minimizes gas costs and MEV exposure

Key benefits include automated best price finding, simplified cross-chain transactions, and reduced manual intervention requirements.
