Coinbase Payments has officially joined the Coinbase Open Intents Framework reinforcing efforts to standardize and simplify cross chain asset transfers across Ethereum and its Layer 2 networks.
As a core contributor, Coinbase will help the Coinbase Open Intents Framework collaborate with dozens of L2 projects to develop open standards for secure permissionless cross chain transfers. Through the Coinbase Open Intents Framework developers can tap into modular components such as solvers, smart contracts and UI templates to build and deploy intent based applications without reinventing infrastructure.
For users, the Coinbase Open Intents Framework enables assets and data to move seamlessly across Ethereum and its scaling solutions. With a simple expression of “intent,” such as swapping tokens across chains solvers automatically execute the transaction making the process smooth and secure.
“The Coinbase Open Intents Framework is a critical step toward mainstream adoption,”Coinbase said in a post on X.
“It will unlock applications like e-commerce where cross chain payments feel as seamless as today’s web experiences while still benefiting from Ethereum’s security.”
Launched in February by the Ethereum Foundation, the Coinbase Open Intents Framework builds on standards like ERC 7683, which define how intents are created, executed and settled. This ensures fast, seamless cross chain operations across Ethereum and L2 ecosystems.
Coinbase is the latest addition to the growing Open Intents Framework initiative which now includes more than 30 contributors. Major players such as Arbitrum, Optimism, zkSync and Scroll as well as cross chain protocols like LI.FI are actively participating. Other teamslike Wonderland, Taiko and Across Protocol have already integrated Coinbase Open Intents Framework modules to power advanced features such as cross chain Dutch auctions.
With Coinbase on board, the Open Intents Framework is cementing its role as a cornerstone of Ethereum interoperability, bringing the ecosystem closer to a future where cross chain interactions are effortless, standardized and ready for mainstream use.
