The Aggregator’s value proposition is tailored to the distinct needs of four primary user segments:
This user prioritizes self-custody and transparency. They use MetaMask, Trust Wallet, or similar extensions and always prefer execution via smart contracts.
| Use Case | Aggregator Value | Technical Flow |
|---|---|---|
| Cross-Chain Asset Transfer | The user needs to move funds between two different blockchain networks (e.g., from an EVM chain to a Layer 1 chain). | User enables On-Chain filter. Aggregator queries multiple bridge and swap protocols for the optimal route and returns the final transaction payload for wallet signing. |
| High-Volume DEX Swap | Executing a large swap between two major assets (e.g., ETH for USDC). | Aggregator utilizes multiple DEX aggregators to split the trade across many liquidity pools, minimizing slippage and securing the best decentralized execution price. |
This user prioritizes speed, high liquidity, and centralized execution simplicity. They are sensitive to slippage and often prefer solutions based on fiat/crypto exchange partners.
| Use Case | Aggregator Value | Technical Flow |
|---|---|---|
| Low-Slippage Swap | Swapping two highly correlated assets (e.g., stablecoin for stablecoin) where price volatility is minimal. | User enables Off-Chain filter. Aggregator queries specialized Off-Chain partners (CEXs and RFQ networks) to leverage limit order books, returning a fixed-rate quote with high certainty and depth. |
| Reliable and Fast Conversion | Needs a conversion executed reliably and fast without waiting for block confirmations or managing gas complexity. | User chooses the Off-Chain deposit address option, leveraging the speed and reliability of our internal trading logic. |
This user is focused solely on the final output amount, regardless of whether the execution is decentralized or centralized. They rely on the platform to find the single most profitable route.
| Use Case | Aggregator Value | Technical Flow |
|---|---|---|
| Universal Price Search | Swapping a volatile asset for a stable asset, where the best route could be On-Chain or Off-Chain. | User selects All Swap Types filter. Aggregator queries all three specialized engines simultaneously and presents a single, ranked list, ensuring the user captures the best rate available across the entire ecosystem. |
| Risk-Mitigated Trade | Executing a large swap of an asset where protection from front-running is desired. | The system compares the final net price from all routes and prioritizes the best option, automatically mitigating market manipulation risks if the Private route provides a superior result. |
This user is highly concerned with minimizing traceability and avoiding negative impacts like MEV (Maximal Extractable Value) on sensitive or large-volume trades.
| Use Case | Aggregator Value | Technical Flow |
|---|---|---|
| Uncorrelated Trading | Executing a swap of a major asset without creating traceable on-chain links between the source and destination wallets. | User selects Private filter. Aggregator routes the trade through specialized privacy protocols or the Internal CEX Rail, returning a unique deposit address for non-custodial execution. |
| MEV Protection | Trading assets with high market impact where a front-running bot could significantly hurt the final execution price. | The aggregator utilizes private execution channels, ensuring the trade never hits the public mempool, thus guaranteeing the user’s quoted price. |
This entity (e.g., a mobile wallet or DeFi DApp) seeks to embed yield and swap functionality into their own product via our API.
| Use Case | Aggregator Value | Technical Flow |
|---|---|---|
| Full-Feature Embedding | A partner wallet wants to offer users all three execution types (On-Chain, Off-Chain, Private) within their native interface. | Partner integrates our single Swap Aggregator API. They use the full flexibility of the execution_filter to determine which quotes to show their users, significantly reducing their development and maintenance overhead. |
| Managed Infrastructure | The partner wants to offer complex cross-chain services that require routing and order tracking. | Our API handles all complexity (bridging, liquidity routing, order tracking) via a single integration, abstracting away the need for the partner to manage individual protocol APIs. |
