What is Native
Radical capital efficiency on-chain with unified liquidity
Native is the intent-based liquidity infrastructure that unlock gains from increased capital efficiency in multi-chain world.
Crypto markets are crammed with various permutations of AMMs, collateralized lending and mint&burn bridging products, further segmenting liquidity for our users. In Native’s view, the future will (1) be radically more capital-efficient and (2) unlock access to more instant on-chain interactions in a multi-chain world.
Maximum capital efficiency
Crypto trading is held back by inefficiencies. There are many reasons for this: Liquidity silos, market fragmentation and a lack of industry-wide credit assessment.
Credit creation is one of the biggest unlocks for capital efficiency. Market makers can use margin posted on one chain to collateralize a position on others. This is beneficial especially in high volatile environments when on-chain congestion is most significant, and timely management of crypto asset portfolios is critical.
Intent-based architecture
Intents prioritize user outcomes and offer the flexibility needed to achieve them. Credit Margin Engine (CME) on Native powers instant bridging and intent-based trading, kickstarting the liquidity flywheel. By recording market maker risks, the CME allows collateral to be pledged, granting instant access to additional capital in the Native Lend Inventory across a multi-chain environment. This way, capital available on a single chain can be utilized across multiple chains, maximizing capital efficiency.
This robust infrastructure lowers capital costs for market makers and benefits institutional clients with tighter spreads; in the same vein attracting retail users with high-performance yields. It is what makes all things cross-chain possible: facilitating efficient swaps, bridging with instant finality and high-yield lending and borrowing pools.
The flywheel of liquidity
Native thrives on a virtuous cycle of growth:
Increased user deposits and market-making activities elevate Native's TVL.
This deeper liquidity enhances the efficiency of Native's PMM, allowing it to offer more competitive quotes and manage larger trades with minimal slippage.
This draws in more traders and boosts trading volumes.
With the growth in liquidity and trading volumes, returns improve, creating a more attractive and reliable trading environment. Higher yields attract more users, creating a positive and dynamic loop.
As the flywheel turns, each step reinforces the others. The continuous flow of liquidity strengthens the Native platform, driving increased user engagement and trading activity. This self-reinforcing cycle is the key to sustainable growth.
Build tools, not gardens
Native allow projects to go live instantly without any of the development overheads; often with a single API connection. Solutions deployed on Native interoperate with the wider Web3 ecosystem. Projects like BENDDAO, Aboard and ZetaSwap are already using Native as their liquidity infrastructure.
