Understanding Intents
Intents make Web3 easy. Instead of complex steps, you simply tell Okto your intent – what you want to achieve. Okto handles the rest, making blockchain actions feel simple.
What are Intents on Okto?
Intents are like simple instructions for Web3. You say what you want, not how to do it. The Okto Platform figures out the best way to make it happen. The Okto Platform takes care of:
- Breaking Down Complex Tasks: Intents become easy steps for the system.
- Smart Fee Handling: Okto makes sure you pay the right amount for fees.
