DeFi Needs Familiar Entry Points
summary
Claims that protocol design can hit constant-time throughput at scale by using O(1) complexity patterns (payment channels, Uniswap-style pooled accounting) and moving proof-of-state off-chain while proving final states on-chain. Demonstrates an intent-based auction called 1inch Fusion and a cross-chain escrow/atomic-swap extension 1inch Fusion Plus that aims for non-custodial bridging across EVM and non-EVM chains. Describes a working white‑label credit card integration, advocates more EVM precompiles, and says the Fusion family is already implemented and open‑source.
