How Omniston Handles EVM-to-EVM Swaps on STON.fi Omniston treats EVM-to-EVM trading as one cross-chain order coordinated through RFQ (Request for Quote), resolvers and paired HTLCs. One Order Across Networks Instead of separate bridge and DEX steps, Omniston converts the request into one trading intent. Resolvers compete to provide quotes and liquidity. Phase 1 networks include Ethereum, BNB Chain, Base and Polygon. TON does not need to be an intermediate network. RFQ and Resolver Liquidity The RFQ model lets resolvers compete instead of relying on one liquidity pool. Partial fills can help larger orders when one resolver cannot provide the full amount. How Paired HTLCs Work On the source network, the trader’s asset is locked in an HTLC with a hashlock and timelock. The resolver locks the asset under a matching cryptographic condition. A secret links both sides. Revealing it to claim one side enables the corresponding claim on the other. If settlement fails, timelocks provide a refund path under the contract rules. Why This Differs From a Normal DEX A standard DEX operates on one blockchain, where both assets share the same ledger. EVM-to-EVM swaps involve independent networks, so they cannot be a single transaction. Omniston presents one unified order while separate contracts execute on each network. Atomicity comes from coordinated rules, matching hashlocks and timelocks—not from a single transaction or an intermediate TON route. What Still Matters Quote quality, gas costs, liquidity and network conditions still influence execution. The Bigger Picture Omniston turns cross-chain trading into an intent-based process: the user specifies the exchange, resolvers compete for execution, and HTLCs coordinate settlement or refunds. RFQ finds competitive execution, resolvers provide liquidity, and paired HTLCs connect settlement across independent chains. One flow hides the cross-chain complexity beneath. $POL $SOL $TRX
