Information flow control one of the most underrated parts of Anoma. you can control what information is revealed, to who, and when, across each stage of intent handling. this isn’t just privacy for privacy’s sake, it’s composable privacy. essential for use cases like institutional trading, private DAOs, and cross-border compliance. without it, intents break down in real-world settings. Intent composability anoma supports composability at the level of intents, not just state or contracts. that means you can compose intents from different apps, users, or chains and have the network resolve them together. It’s how we escape fragmented liquidity, isolated smart contracts, and fractured UX. Instead of building isolated dApps, we build composable expressions of need.
