Originally I tried to be pseudonymous and so it was mostly just me. It was difficult to kind of recruit contributors in that day and age when you were pseudonymous, there was just too much spam in the world. So I kind of took the intent idea and then said, hmm, but we need like a different foundation went somewhere else. Also I think it's like, you know, I don't want to claim an a special amount of foresight here. But if you use the word intent, people would understand what you're talking about Right.
This week, host Anna Rose and co-host Tarun Chitra catch up with Chris Goes from Heliax, the team behind Anoma and Namada. They start with a quick retrospective about IBC, a project he formerly worked on, and how the protocol has evolved since it launched.
They dive into the concept of 'intents', exploring their origin, evolution, and discuss the intent-based systems that exist today. As well, they chat about the architectures enabled by a generalized intent-based infrastructure, the potential impacts on user experience, and the inherent trade-offs, particularly when zero-knowledge or privacy aspects are added to the mix.
