Ulysses, the protagonist of Homers epic poem The Odyssey, said to his crew members during his adventure: We must take such risks and go to distant places to see if adventure and knowledge can be transformed into flowers and fruits. The evolution of Web3 wallets is like Ulysses sailing adventure, exploring tomorrows digital world through continuous updates and technological leaps.
Most of the early versions of Web3 wallets were dedicated to asset management and trading functions. Later, with the development of on-chain applications such as DeFi, more complex functions such as cross-chain transactions, smart contract execution and DApp integration were gradually added. It is currently upgraded to a comprehensive platform with advanced functions such as smart transactions, MEV protection and real-time market data analysis, creating more open and inclusive financial tools for global users.
However, no matter how the Web3 wallet functions evolve, users ultimate exploration behavior will fall on transactions, so the Web3 wallet transaction quotes and experience directly determine its competitiveness in the market. As OKXs flagship product, the OKX Web3 wallet transaction section is winning greater market competition with its optimal transaction quote strategy and user-friendly transaction experience.
The seemingly consistent minimalist Swap and cross-chain sections of the OKX Web3 wallet hide the continuous innovation and iteration of its technical team in algorithms, liquidity pool management, API, etc., as well as the foresighted layout of future smart trading tools. From here, you can search and conduct unbounded transactions.
Minimize transaction costs
Small Transactions (Swap)
Novice users, MEME users, and scalping users are representatives of small-amount users and one of the most important core forces in the crypto market. Small-amount users have relatively small transaction amounts per transaction, but can tolerate larger price fluctuations and market risks. They often actively participate in communities and communication platforms, share trading strategies and market insights, and obtain information and advice from other traders. These characteristics and behavior patterns together depict the clear demands of small-amount users for Web3 wallet transaction functions.
Since small transactions may involve tokens with smaller market capitalizations or short-term value changes, the amounts traded by small transaction users are usually between tens and hundreds of dollars. They tend to seek fast execution and best prices, focus on low costs and fees, and get involved in new projects and trading pairs. They are willing to seek higher investment returns and value discovery at the expense of higher risks.
The OKX Web3 wallet trading section is very friendly to small users and provides the best quotes.

Large Transactions (Swap)
The amount of each transaction of large-volume traders is usually high, which can reach thousands or even millions of dollars. They are usually institutional investors, large fund holders or individual whales. Compared with small-volume traders, large-volume traders have lower transaction frequency and higher risk sensitivity. They are more inclined to make strategic or long-term investments rather than frequent short-term transactions.
For large-volume traders, first of all, they are very concerned about the execution price and cost of the transaction, and usually choose DEX platforms that can provide the best execution price and the smallest price slippage. Secondly, large-volume traders need sufficient market depth and high-quality liquidity to complete large-volume transactions without affecting market prices. Finally, the transaction amount is large, and large-volume traders have extremely high requirements for the privacy and security of the transaction. They usually choose DEX platforms that provide strong security measures and privacy protection to execute transactions.
Only a powerful wallet like OKX Web3 can meet the complex transaction needs and specific market conditions of large-scale transaction users, especially through the intelligent price comparison function, which can automatically recommend the best price path for users.
First, smart order splitting technology . For large orders, the OKX Web3 wallet trading section uses smart order splitting technology to automatically split the order into multiple small orders and execute them in different liquidity pools at the same time. That is, through X Routing smart routing, one transaction can use multiple DEXs at the same time to obtain the best comprehensive price.
Second, the MEV protection mechanism. With the help of Flashbots and Blocknative technology, the OKX Web3 wallet can protect large users from MEV attacks and ensure the security and fairness of transactions.
Third, liquidity pool selection and display . The OKX Web3 wallet will display the source of liquidity pools to large users, and support users to manually select liquidity pools, which increases the transparency and control of transactions.
Fourth, the Snap intent mode smart price comparison function. OKX Web3 Wallet launched the on-chain aggregated liquidity and Snap intent mode smart price comparison function, automatically recommending the best price path for large users. OKX Web3 Wallet aggregates a wider range of liquidity through UniswapX, allowing users to interact directly with market makers, so as to exchange tokens on Ethereum more quickly and intuitively without paying any GAS fees. Especially for large transactions exceeding 10,000 U, users can usually get more favorable quotes.
OKX Web3 Wallet uses the Snap intent mode to enable large user orders to be accessed more quickly, automatically executed, and intelligently matched, thus improving market liquidity. Especially when the market fluctuates greatly or the trading volume is large, intent trading can respond to market changes more quickly and obtain better transaction execution prices, thereby optimizing the transaction efficiency of large users.
As an automated and intelligent trading strategy, intention trading has a significant positive impact on the market liquidity and trading efficiency of DEX and CEX platforms. With the advancement of blockchain technology and the expansion of the application of smart contracts, intention trading is expected to be more widely used in the cryptocurrency trading market in the future, providing users with a better trading experience.

It now supports 23 chains and aggregates 27 cross-chain bridges, including EVM chains and non-EVM chains, providing users with a wider range of asset exchange options.

Through the OKX Web3 wallet cross-chain function, users can choose a cross-chain bridge according to their needs and preferences, and exchange any token on one chain to any token on another chain, which greatly simplifies the transaction operation process to optimize the transaction experience and cost-effectiveness.
