About Agoric

Agoric is building the infrastructure to unlock truly seamless DeFi. The Agoric Network is a Cosmos-based proof-of-stake layer 1 blockchain that powers Orchestration: a unique coordination layer enabling secure, one-click cross-chain experiences. Ticker: BLD (as in “build”) — the native utility token of the Agoric Network. Agoric Systems is the core development company, building user applications and driving adoption of the network. Together, the network and the company are delivering on a bold mission: to make web3 usable, composable, and automated for everyone.

What Makes Agoric Unique?

• Cross-Chain Orchestration: Agoric is among the first to introduce intents-based orchestration—solving for fragmented liquidity and allowing users to execute actions seamlessly across different blockchains with a single signature.
• Early Intents Innovator: Agoric was among the first to introduce an intents solution, a game-changer for seamless crypto transactions.
• Security by Design: Agoric’s architecture is rooted in hardened security principles like the Principle of Least Authority (POLA) and object-capability (OCAP) patterns.
• MetaMask Partnership: Agoric’s Hardened JavaScript technology powers MetaMask Snaps, a feature that expands the wallet’s capabilities to over 50 blockchains, boosting its appeal and showcasing Agoric’s secure innovation in action.
• Built for Dev Adoption: By using Hardened JavaScript, Agoric opens up smart contract development to millions of mainstream developers already familiar with JS. Read about the distinctive tech, platform, and partnerships on the Agoric blog.

Who’s Behind Agoric?

Agoric was founded by Dean Tribble and Mark Miller, two pioneers in secure distributed systems and smart contract architecture. Agoric Systems, the core dev company, leads the protocol’s development and ecosystem growth. The Decentralized Cooperation Foundation (DCF) is Agoric’s foundation partner.

Real-World Usage

Orchestration: Coordinated execution across chains —a developer and user-friendly layer, Orchestration lets apps perform multi-step, multi-blockchain operations with a single user signature—like swapping tokens, bridging assets, and staking across chains—without users juggling tools or signing every step. It supports reactive smart contracts that can run over time using built-in timers—making use cases like time-triggered payouts, subscriptions, and auto-rebalancing portfolios possible. This kind of automation is rare in blockchain and has the potential to unlock real DeFi usability. Teams like Noble, Osmosis, Omniflix, and Elys have already begun integrating Agoric’s orchestration to power cross-chain activity and improve UX across Cosmos and Ethereum. MetaMask chose Agoric’s Hardened JavaScript engine to build Snaps, allowing plugins to run safely in users’ wallets. This shows Agoric’s tech isn’t just theoretical—it’s trusted and adopted by a leading crypto ecosystem to power real applications And it showcases the power of Agoric's tech: simplifying complex crypto workflows with seamless single-signature experiences. Fast USDC is Agoric’s first production-grade orchestration application, built in collaboration with Circle and Noble. It enables secure, fast transfers of USDC from and to Ethereum, EVM and Cosmos chains —drastically reducing wait times from ~20 minutes to ~1 minute. With the stablecoin market surging, Fast USDC showcases Agoric’s potential.
