"One thing that Radix absolutely thrives on is the atomic composability. The lack of it is probably NEAR's biggest disadvantage (especially when talking about more complex DeFi operations). I don't see it impacting NEAR Intents significantly tho. Maybe I'm missing something Radix is undeniably a fantastic tool/stack for that. Biggest problem now is adoption/implementation. A liquidity engine must have liquidity and a good network effect (which the Intents team is delivering quite well hence my growing interest). But yeah. I'm sure Radix would do wonders if it had more adoption and liquidity"

"What if "the best product" is on another chain that is not Solana Which is my point on Zcash It's fragmented if we dismiss all other solutions in development just because they are not in "the most popular chain" which is also fairly subjective and questionable depending on what popularity metric we are looking at It's not tribalistic at all to have different products with different trade-offs being used by different people - all that connected by cross-chain/chain-abstraction protocols (NEAR Intents is just one of them; there will be more and there will be more integrating Zcash if the trend"
