{% hint style="info" %}
**Scenario**: Josh, a retail trader, wants to swap 1 ETH for USDC using a Native-powered aggregator/solver. PMM1, a trading house, has pledged **100 USDC as collateral**, securing a **$100 credit** from Native.<br>

**Step-by-Step Process**:

* (**T-1:** Josh entered a swap intent to the aggregator. The aggregator checks the latest price and depth from Native orderbook endpoint)
* **T0**: Josh submits a swap intent through the aggregator.
* **T1**: Native Swap Engine receives the intent. PMM1 offers a **quote of 3600 USDC** using the Native Credit Pool as inventory, by leveraging its **$100 credit**. Even though it doesn’t hold USDC in its wallet.
* **T2**: Josh signs and approves the transaction to swap **1 WETH for 3600 USDC**.
* **T3**:
  * Native Credit Pool pays **Josh 3600 USDC** and receives **1 WETH**.
  * Native records a **long 1 WETH** and a **short 3600 USDC** position on PMM1’s credit record.
  * This entire process occurs **atomically in a single transaction**.

{% hint style="info" %}
**What if Price Moves?**

* If the price of WETH drops to **$3598**, **$2** being cut from PMM credit
* If the price of WETH stays **above $3500**, PMM1’s credit covers its position. The 100 USD collateral is used to cover the gap.&#x20;
* If the price drops **below $3500**, the 100 USDC collateral **and** the 1 WETH would be **subject to liquidation**.
