Decentralized finances or DEFs are based on composites, but the composition is cracking. When the recent chains spread, fragments of liquidity and incentives weaken.
What once was a single common environment fell into dozens of muted markets. DEFI is not dead, but without infrastructure connecting these environments may lose what made it powerful.
Broken liquidity becomes the central risk of DEFI scalability. While the extension to many chains was a natural response to the boundaries of Ethereum scalability, it created a recent class of problems.
Infrastructure, not ideology, will determine whether the multi -scholar future strengthens or weakens the category.
The fragmented liquidity is the basic mode of failure
DEFI protocols are based on a deep, composer liquidity: a common pool of assets that can be borrowed, converted and imposed on strategies.
However, this assumption is no longer in the multi -soul world. The liquidity is now spread over dozens of L1, Rollups and Appchains. Aave is placed on 17 chains; Pendle at 11.
These implementations are forceful alone, but the liquidity they capture is specific to the chain and often inaccessible outside the environment in which it is embedded.
This fragmentation creates basic ineffectiveness: thinner markets, higher slip and weaker user incentives and protocol. Even the best -designed economic models begin to fall apart when the liquidity they depend on is no longer chunky. The protocols that operated smoothly on Ethereum Mainnet are now aimed at providing the same results elsewhere – not because their models are defective, but because the context in which they operate has changed.
The transition to Multichain was necessary for scaling. But without a way to compository emulation in various chains, the risk undermines the basis of Defi’s success.
Multichain UX friction is not a main problem
A significant part of Multichain DEFI focused on UX friction: wallets switching, obtaining gas tokens and jumping through the bridge interfaces (user interfaces). These are symptoms at the surface level of a deeper problem: no uniform layer of implementation.
Users who try to perform even basic transition actions often encounter inconsistent interfaces, crushed prices and uncertain results. In recent months, some progress has been made in the solutions and bridge solutions, but the inefficiency of liquidity and inefficiency of routing persist.
Most of these systems are based on isolated liquidity pools on the chain, with duplicate incentives and constrained routing paths. Even if the front-end is united, the back remains crushed-capital is unproductive and arduous to compose.
If liquidity cannot easily move around the chains or composing a strategy requires bridging, wrapping or interaction with many applications, DEFI cannot scale significant. Solvers imitates synchronization, so users don’t have to.

Blockchains are not designed to support synchronization. There is no native way to perform a single nuclear action between chains. We don’t have to wait for synchronous infrastructure. We can imitate it.
This is where Solvers enter. Solvers are sophisticated actors who utilize their own capital and logic to join crushed actions on behalf of the user. The user simply expresses his intention – exchange, deposit, interaction – and Solver is performed across the chains to fulfill it, extracting complexity underneath.
Infrastructure solution based on intentions for interoperability, not consolidation
Intensions are more than just an abstract layer: they change the way we design liquidity, composition and performance.
ERC-7683 standardizes the way these intentions are expressed and fulfilled. It enables hidden bridging: swaps with one click, deposits or interactions that move on chains without having to manage complexity-nave between ecosystems that have not been designed for interopathy.
The user in salt can turn into an arbitrarum vault. The liquidity can move to the BNB chain and leave, historically muted from the Ethereum national standards. Strategies become portable. The protocols become interoperable.
The result is not excellent uniformity, but something more resistant: systems that work together despite their differences.
Instead of forcing every chain to accept the same standards, intentions allow users to define the results, while solvers perform in ecosystems – while maintaining local strengths, while enabling global liquidity. They do not erase the multi -schite complexity. They utilize it around him.
Multichain is no longer theoretical. It is an environment in which DEFI operates today. Unless we solve the composition in the infrastructure layer, DEFI may not scale with it.
Risk is not a dramatic fall. This is tardy erosion: thinner liquidity, weaker incentives and fewer things that work in various chains.
The Solver infrastructure offers an exit – not by forcing uniformity, but by imitating the experience of synchronization in crushed chains. In this way, we keep what has made deficular defers and how we unlock what will happen next.
