CATM Model

The Core of PicWe’s Omni-Chain Liquidity

The Chain Abstraction Transaction Model (CATM) is the backbone of PicWe’s omni-chain asset liquidity, enabling secure, seamless cross-chain trading without relying on traditional bridges. Think of it as a global port container system for digital assets: you can trade, hold, or transfer ownership without physically moving the assets across chains.


How CATM Works

  1. Order Initiation on the Original Chain

  • Users place a trade order on their current blockchain.

  • The order details are sent to the target chain via a Relayer.

  • An agent on the target chain provides the tokens for the order and receives the staked funds.

  1. Direct Asset Purchase Without Bridges

  • Trade any asset on another chain directly, without transferring tokens through bridges.

  • Assets remain locked in smart contracts until the transaction completes.

  • Eliminates risks associated with traditional cross-chain bridges.

  1. Cost and Efficiency Savings

  • Removes the need for two-step transfers, lowering transaction and gas fees.

  • Simplifies the process for faster and more economical trading.

  1. Direct Asset Purchase Without Bridges

  • All actions, order placement, settlement, and purchase, are handled by smart contracts.

  • Users maintain complete control over their assets.

  • Anyone can participate using their own or third-party Relayers.


CATM in Everyday Terms

Imagine a global container port network:

  • You can buy goods in a container at any port and receive a certificate of ownership.

  • Sell the certificate if the value rises, or pay shipping to retrieve the goods.

  • CATM works similarly for digital assets, letting you trade and manage ownership without moving the assets across chains.


Why CATM Matters

CATM revolutionizes omni-chain liquidity by:

  • Reducing costs and increasing speed for cross-chain transactions.

  • Keeping assets securely locked in smart contracts.

  • Providing a fully decentralized, permissionless framework for trading across blockchains.

With CATM, PicWe enables true Web3 interoperability, allowing assets to flow freely across chains while keeping users in full control.
