Generalized Intents: Beyond Swaps, Into Real DeFi Applications @0xSoulProtocol 

Many protocols today support specific intents:
- Swap tokens
- Bridge assets
- Stake into one predefined vault

But if you want to compose actions like:
- Borrow on one chain
- Swap on another
- Donate or redirect the result elsewhere

You’re stuck writing custom code, managing state, and bridging gaps manually.

Soul changes that. $SO

It supports generalized intents any kind of outcome that can be expressed on-chain.

What Are Generalized Intents?

A generalized intent is a flexible instruction. Instead of hardcoding the how, users describe the what.
Example intents:

- Borrow XXXXX USDC from the cheapest source using ETH collateral
- Repay my loan from any wallet with any stablecoin
- Reallocate my collateral to a different chain for better APY

These are not single transactions. They’re complex, multi-chain actions compressed into a single, declarative command.

How Soul Enables This

Soul’s architecture allows these generalized intents by coordinating:

- Controllers that manage asset logic
- Cross-chain Routers that deliver commands
- Invokers that allow execution from any origin chain
- ACL Manager to verify and authorize access

It also relies on:

- Oracles for asset pricing and validation
- InterestStrategy modules for yield routing
- STokens to track positions across DeFi protocols

Why This Is a Leap Forward

- Intent becomes the unit of design.
- Composability without complexity.
- Interoperability with extensibility. 

New lending protocols, yield strategies, or chains can plug into Soul without redesigning the intent framework.

New Possibilities

With generalized intents, we unlock:

- DAO-governed automation: treasury strategies that rebalance collateral and debt automatically
- DeFi-native neobanks: frontends that offer savings, borrowing, payments all powered by Soul
- Plug-and-play integrations: apps that leverage Soul’s execution backend for advanced coordination

Generalized intents are the key to moving DeFi from infrastructure to application.

Soul supports any intent not just swaps or simple positions. It enables:

- Outcome-first logic
- Cross-chain composability
- Secure, permissioned execution

If we want DeFi that feels like real finance where users express goals and the system handles the rest generalized intents are the foundation.

And Soul is already live on testnet, showing how it’s done.
