In the context of blockchain intents, solvers are market participants who help users execute intents for a fee. Within the Eco Protocol, solvers scan for users’ intents, signaling that they are interested in using Token A, while the app accepts Token B.

Solvers process user intents—desired blockchain outcomes—by determining and executing the most efficient path to achieve them. They optimize transactions by analyzing routes, reducing costs, and simplifying complex processes like token swaps or cross-chain transfers. Essentially, Solvers abstract blockchain’s technical complexities, ensuring faster, more reliable outcomes.
