Problem
Current decentralized exchange (DEX) models often suffer from fragmented liquidity across different platforms and markets, leading to inefficient trade execution and higher costs for traders. Managing collateral across multiple positions and venues adds complexity and friction to the trading experience.
Solution

The protocol allows users to submit trade intents, which are then fulfilled by specialized solvers that source optimal prices from both on-chain and off-chain liquidity pools. By eliminating the need for individual collateral management and providing access to aggregated liquidity, Perennial aims to deliver a seamless, cost-effective trading experience for developers, liquidity providers, and traders.
