The Pond is Cardano's first smart contract account. It unlocks the true potential of UTXO dApps through massive improvements to both user experience and features.
By abstracting DeFi intents away from the underlying assets involved, Pondora enables the unique ability to deploy the same assets across different protocols simultaenously.
Expanding on the robust principals of Extended UTXO, virtual accounts allow for the simplified management of token balances, mimicking the behavior of accounts in account-based blockchains, while retaining the benefits of the UTXO model such as determinism and parallel transactions.
Through advanced and chained intents, smart account users can automate transactions allowing for the creation of trading and yield generation strategies.
Interact with your favorite dApps in one convenient place through aggregation, composition and Pondora's own smart account modules.
Powered by Cardano, the most decentralized layer 1 blockchain, Pondora has been built on the same values of putting security and decentralization first by leveraging an open-source community-driven dApp structure.
The Decentralized Order Routing Aggregator is a high performance backend that can be run as a network of distributed application nodes.
DORA performs efficient order routing through a real-time websocket interface, while aggregating and composing compatible DeFi operations throughout the Cardano ecosystem.
This architecture enables the path forward for the protocol to be fully run by the community.
