No jumping between platforms. No manually coordinating separate steps. Just choose what and where you want it delivered!
That's the vision behind π£π’ππ¬ππ¦π§ππ₯ π€π¨πππ π¦πͺππ£, the upcoming flagship feature expected around the end of October or beginning of November. πβ‘
But hold on, because the technology behind this is what makes it REALLY interesting!

πππ§'π¦ ππ₯πππ ππ§ ππ’πͺπ‘!
HOW WILL IT WORK? π€
Imagine holding BTC on Bitcoin but wanting XRP in your destination wallet.
Here's how the journey works:
1οΈβ£ CHOOSE YOUR ASSETS
Select the asset and network you're sending from, then choose what you want to receive and its destination network.
Want BTC β XRP? ETH β BTC? USDT β USDC? Or ETH on Base β ETH on Arbitrum?
That's the vision: different assets and networks connected through one interface, wherever the required routes and markets are supported.
2οΈβ£ ENTER YOUR AMOUNT AND WALLET
Choose how much you want to swap and enter the wallet address that should receive your output.
3οΈβ£ REVIEW YOUR QUOTE
Check the exchange rate, minimum protected output, fees, destination details and quote expiration BEFORE sending your funds.
No guessing what the quoted conversion is supposed to deliver!
4οΈβ£ SEND YOUR ASSET
Polyester provides the deposit instructions for your specific swap. Once your transfer is processed, the input becomes available for conversion.
5οΈβ£ THE ORDER BOOK DOES ITS JOB! β‘
Polyester executes the conversion through its own order book for the selected trading pair, with price protection defining the minimum output the swap can accept.
6οΈβ£ RECEIVE YOUR ASSET
After the conversion settles, the resulting asset is delivered through the selected destination route.
Your deposit, conversion and delivery are connected through one Quick Swap workflow.
SIMPLE FOR THE USER. POWERFUL UNDER THE HOOD. π€―
NOW HERE'S THE REAL PLOT TWIST!
Polyester isn't approaching cross-chain swaps the same way as Chainflip, NEAR Intents, Relaylink, funxyz and THORChain DEX.
The BIG difference?
π₯ REAL ORDER BOOKS. POLYESTER'S OWN ORDER BOOKS.
Let's make this ridiculously simple.
π’ IMAGINE $1 MILLION IN ORDER-BOOK LIQUIDITY.
With market makers keeping prices aligned with Binance or Bybit, that capital can be concentrated around the latest market price as conditions change.
When BTC moves, market makers can update their orders to keep liquidity close to where the market is trading.
The goal? Make more of that capital useful for executing trades around the current price.
Now compare that with LP pools.
Liquidity in these pools is distributed across a range of prices depending on their design. That means capital isn't necessarily concentrated where the market is trading right now.
As a trade grows relative to the available liquidity, the execution price can move further, increasing slippage.
THAT'S THE CAPITAL-EFFICIENCY CHALLENGE! π
π£ AND WHAT ABOUT SOLVER-BASED SYSTEMS?
Intent-based solutions use solvers to fulfil users' requests. Those solvers need to make money from execution, often through the spread.
That introduces another participant into the transaction who needs to earn from providing the service.
Polyester's approach is different: execute swaps through its own order books rather than relying on LP pools or external solvers to perform the conversion.
The ambition is clear: concentrate liquidity more efficiently, reduce slippage and make large swaps more practical.
And because execution happens through real order books, the quality of the result can be evaluated through actual market depth and execution prices.
Of course, the advantage in any particular trade depends on available liquidity, market conditions and the size of the swap.
No jumping between platforms. No manually coordinating separate steps. Just choose what and where you want it delivered!

ππππΎπππ ππ πΏπΌπ 11 ππ πππ 30 πΏπΌππ ππ πππππππππ! π₯
Ever clicked BUY and wondered what happens before your order becomes a trade? π Welcome to Day 11 of our Polyester lesson series, where we break down the product piece by piece. Today we're πππ, where your order starts turning into an actual execution!
An order is your instruction to buy or sell. A fill is the quantity that actually executes when it matches an eligible opposing order. So clicking BUY doesn't mean you've bought the asset already. Your order must pass the necessary checks and find a match first.
βοΈ πππ πΏπππ ππ ππππ?
@polyester uses π£πΌπΉπππ»π΄πΆπ»π² to process orders and match eligible buyers and sellers. Think of it as the engine room turning your instruction into an execution. The system checks your account, available balance and market rules before matching begins. Better prices get priority and when prices are equal, earlier eligible orders go first. No cutting the queue! π
Imagine you're buying 1 BTC with a limit price of 100,000 USDT. Seller A offers 0.3 BTC at 99,800, Seller B offers 0.4 BTC at 99,900 and Seller C offers 0.3 BTC at 100,000. If all are eligible, your ONE order can produce THREE fills at different prices. You receive 1 BTC for 99,900 USDT in total before fees. That's why your average execution price can differ from your limit price. One order, multiple fills. BOOM! π₯ After each fill, settlement records the asset exchange and applicable fees.
π€― πππΌπ ππ ππππ ππΌππ ππ ππππ πππΏππ πππππ?
Say you ordered 1 BTC but only 0.35 BTC executes. That's a partial fill, leaving 0.65 BTC unfilled. Depending on the order instructions, the remainder may stay open or be cancelled. GTC can remain active, IOC cancels what can't execute immediately and FOK requires the whole order to execute immediately or cancels it. Market orders follow applicable price protection. Cancelling the remainder does NOT reverse fills that already happened!
Maker and taker roles matter too. A maker order was already resting on the order book when matched; a taker order consumes existing liquidity. One order can have both types of fills, which may affect fees.
π πππππ πΏπ πππ πΎπππΎπ?
Market Trades shows public executions across a market, while your personal Trades and Fills show executions attributed to your account. Open Orders tracks active orders, Order History shows how orders ended and Order Details connects an order to its fills. Funds helps you understand your balance and reserved amounts.
Understanding fills helps you review execution prices and fees, recognise partial fills and investigate your activity instead of guessing. Polyester brings these tools together in one trading workspace, connecting market analysis, order management and execution review. If you haven't explored it yet, sign up and see the features for yourself. Seeing is believing! π₯
