Nomial is now live on @katana chain!
Crosschain solvers can now borrow liquidity directly from Nomial pools on Katana, enabling fast, cheap, and seamless onboarding into the Katana ecosystem.
Katana is a DeFi-focused L2 built for liquidity efficiency and productivity, a perfect match for Nomial’s vision of unlocking the SolverFi economy.
With Nomial:
▪️Anyone can lend liquidity into smart pools
▪️That liquidity earns passive yield via protocols like Morpho (no impermanent losses)
▪️When needed, solvers borrow liquidity to fill crosschain intents, providing additional yield
Why does this matter?
Solvers enable the intent economy, the next level of experience and onchain operations; ex: “bridge 1 ETH from Base and deposit into Sushi on Katana”. But to do that, they must pre-deposit idle funds across chains. This is inefficient and costly.
Nomial fixes this. Solvers borrow just-in-time liquidity from shared pools and repay after execution.
The result:
▪️More solvers can operate on Katana
▪️Apps can integrate deposit-from-anywhere UX
▪️Users onboard instantly into Katana apps with a single click
Nomial is committed to expanding solver access and making liquidity even more productive.
Let the positive flywheel begin! Nomial 🤝 Katana.
Announcing the Open Intents Framework ✨
Ecosystem-wide interop, accelerated by 30+ teams from all corners of Ethereum.
A modular, open framework to make it seamless for any chain to get intents into the hands of users & improve cross-chain UX.

Everclear🤝Nomial: Building the Infrastructure for SolverFi
We're entering an era where solver networks become the primary actors in executing onchain transactions.
This shift requires new infrastructure to help solvers manage capital efficiently across hundreds of chains and assets.
@nomial_io and Everclear have partnered to enhance this infrastructure layer for solver networks.
The Inventory Challenge
Currently, solvers face a critical challenge: they must fragment their capital across every chain they operate on, leading to:
• High capital requirements
• Inefficient liquidity utilization
• Limited chain coverage
• Complex operational overhead
Nomial, The Inventory Access Layer, revolutionizes how solvers access liquidity through:
• Just-in-time borrowing on destination chains
• Single-chain collateral for multi-chain access
• Yield-bearing collateral positions
• Permissionless liquidity pools
Everclear: Liquidity Coordination
Everclear's Clearing Layer acts as the coordination mechanism for the solver economy, enabling:
• Global matching of liquidity flows across chains
• Efficient netting of opposing rebalancing needs
• Optimized settlement paths
• Reduced rebalancing costs through coordinated actions
When solvers borrow from Nomial pools, they need an efficient way to manage their positions.
Everclear provides this by coordinating rebalancing across the entire solver network, ensuring capital moves in the most efficient way possible.
How It Works: A Practical Example
When a user wants to bridge $USDC from @Arbitrum to @Base:
• A Solver previously collateralized, wins the intent
• Borrows USDC instantly from Nomial's Base pool using the credit line opened for them
• Fulfills the user's intent
• Receives refund on Arbitrum
• Uses Everclear for efficient rebalancing
• Repays the Nomial pool
The Perfect Synergy
Nomial provides the edges - just-in-time liquidity access across chains
Everclear provides the coordination - efficient settlement and rebalancing
Together, this creates a capital-efficient infrastructure that enables solvers to:
• Scale to new chains with near-zero incremental cost
• Reduce operational complexity
• Access any asset, anywhere
• Optimize capital efficiency
The EverclearDAO has approved a grant towards Nomial to complete their V1.
The future of crosschain settlement lies in the seamless coordination between efficient liquidity access and settlement.
Fast-fill intents (less than 15 seconds) generate a huge amount of fees, but they only represent 3% of all bridging volume🤔
Users clearly want to bridge faster, so why aren’t we seeing more fills under 15 seconds?

@yungtesh@knwang This is what we're building at @nomial_io. Anyone can provide capital to solvers and earn yield by doing so.

❓How has the Chain Abstraction evolved?
❓What drives demand?
❓Are there liquidity challenges?
@MikeCalvanese and @andrew311, co-founders of Nomial, have a conversation with @ethanfr, Head of Developer Relations at @ParticleNtwrk, on these questions and more. Check out the full conversation on the evolution and impact of Chain Abstraction on Youtube:

#Web3 #ChainAbstraction
My first serious foray into coding was using the Win32 API in C/C++ to mess with the AOL app so I could "IM bomb" my friends and automate ASCII art in chat rooms. Had to hook into the app, search for handles to text boxes and buttons, then send key press and click events. I did it using massive Win32 API books as reference, like the one on the left in this image. I enjoyed this immensely.
