Building Economic Trust in Solver-Based Networks – Part 3: Reclaiming Efficient Markets

This article is based on the talk ‘Rethinking Competition in Solver-Based Networks’ given at Protocol Berg in Berlin June 13th 2025. (Watch it here) In Part 2, we looked under the hood of real-world solver networks like CoW Protocol and Across. What we found was clear: * A handful of solvers

Building Economic Trust in Solver-Based Networks – Part 2: The State of Competition

This post explores how today's competition models in solver-based protocols are evolving — and in some cases, replicating the same centralization dynamics we hoped to escape.

Building Economic Trust in Solver-Based Networks – Part 1

What is Economic Trust, and why does Solver-Based Execution need it? As intent-based DeFi architectures evolve, the role of solvers—the agents responsible for fulfilling user intents—has become increasingly central. Solvers compete to route trades, bridge assets, or bundle transactions across chains. They are the execution layer behind the
