ATLAS
Introducing Rocketboost, powered by Atlas and the world’s first fully onchain DRFQ
The Atlas Protocol is the world’s first generalized execution abstraction protocol for the EVM, providing app and frontend developers the ability run intent or MEV orderflow auctions to capture value for their users and stakeholders. Atlas developers can build and configure their “Atlas Module” (an Atlas DappControl contract) for their use case and value flow requirements, including: OEV auctions, backrun OFAs, intents/swap RFQs, rebalancing auctions and LVR resistant AMMs/hooks. Having success

ATLAS
Introducing Atlas Backruns
By Jacob Greene - FastLane Labs Atlas is a generalized execution abstraction protocol for building application-specific order flow auctions on the EVM. Because of its generality and flexibility, Atlas can be used for a number of execution abstraction use-cases such as backrun order flow auctions, OEV auctions, and intent auctions. All of these auction types can be purpose-built by application developers in what we call an Atlas Module. While developers can always write their own modules or fork

Why we are building Atlas
Blockchains are governed by cause and effect. Their state only changes when something acts upon them to change it. This cause is usually a transaction. This means if something changes and we want to represent that in a blockchains state, we’re going to need a transaction. For example a user could decide they want to exchange one of their tokens for another, or the price of a token on another platform could change. These state changes have consequences. If a user interacts with a liquidity pool
