1. Architectural Paradigm
The Challenge: Fragmentation vs. Abstraction
In multi-chain architectures, users are often plagued by cumbersome network switching and asset fragmentation. ASDO introduces the Chain-Agnostic Interaction Model, which shields the heterogeneity of the underlying blockchain by building a unified RPC access layer.Core Value Proposition
ASDO’s core innovation lies in its dual intelligent engines:- Intent Analysis Engine: Automatically parses transaction intent and intelligently routes it to the optimal execution layer.
- Unified Asset Synthesis: Aggregates the status of assets across the entire ecosystem in real time, providing a top-down view of assets.
2. System Architecture
ASDO is a highly available, low-latency Intelligent Proxy Layer that sits between the client and the underlying distributed network.2.1. Data Flow Architecture
- Request Ingestion: The client sends a standard JSON-RPC request to the ASDO unified endpoint.
- Semantic Validation: The gateway performs protocol-level validation and semantic parsing.
- Intelligent Routing Decision:
- State Queries: Distribute queuing based on load balancing strategies or contextual heuristics.
- Transaction Execution: Activate the Chain Identification Service (CIS) for in-depth intent analysis.
- Execution & Response: The request is precisely routed to the target network node (Algen L1/L2/Ethereum), and the result is returned via gateway aggregation.
2.2. Core Components
Intelligent Dispatcher
As the central hub for traffic, it is responsible for high-throughput request ingestion and load balancing. It uses a dynamic weighting algorithm to distribute high-frequency read requests, such aseth_blockNumber, to the healthiest node cluster.
Chain Identification Service (CIS)
CIS is the decision-making brain of ASDO, responsible for interpreting the “semantic intent” of a transaction.- Intent Extraction: Deeply analyzes the payload of
eth_sendRawTransactionto extract the target contract address and function signature. - Deterministic Mapping: Accesses Redis-based high-performance distributed indexes, matching
Contract Address -> ChainIDmappings in milliseconds. - Adaptive Routing: For newly deployed contracts that are not indexed, an adaptive rollback mechanism is initiated to determine the target network through full-chain probing.
Unified Asset Aggregation Service (UAAS)
UAAS achieves logical unification for cross-chain assets.- Parallel State Query: Parallelizes the query of account status across all networks within the Algen ecosystem.
- Asset Normalization: Through a standardized token mapping table, it automatically aggregates the distributed balances of the native token (ALG) and mainstream assets (USDT/USDV/USDC), presenting a single “total balance across the entire chain” to the client.
3. Features & UX Evolution (Core Features)
3.1. Zero-Config Interface
ASDO provides a single RPC endpoint URL, completely eliminating configuration redundancy for DApp developers in multi-chain environments.- Implicit Chain Resolution: Developers do not need to hardcode
chainIdon the front end; the ASDO backend automatically handles all context switching.
3.2. Intent-Driven Transaction Routing
ASDO simplifies the user’s workflow from “select network -> switch RPC -> send transaction” to “initiate transaction”.- Context Awareness: Whether a user is interacting with an L1 DeFi protocol or minting NFTs in an L2 GameFi, CIS can accurately identify and route the interaction without the user’s awareness.
| Transaction Context | Analysis Mechanism | Routing Logic |
|---|---|---|
| Smart Contract Interaction | Target Address Resolution | Directed Routing via CIS Database |
| Asset Transfer | Token Contract Identification | Chain-Specific Execution |
| State Read | Context Heuristics | Optimal Node Load Balancing |
4. Implementation Specifications
4.1. High-Performance Proxy
The ASDO gateway is built on a high-performance reverse proxy architecture, strictly follows the JSON-RPC 2.0 specification, and implements Stateless Scalability.4.2. Distributed Mapping Integrity
The mapping database maintained by CIS is dynamically updated by indexing the entire network of contract deployment events (ContractDeployment) in real time. The system has a built-in Conflict Resolution mechanism to ensure routing determinism when contracts with the same name exist on multiple chains (such as CREATE2 deployment).
4.3. Security & Reliability
- Non-Custodial Routing: ASDO is only responsible for routing signed raw transactions and does not access user private keys, maintaining the principle of decentralized security.
- Cluster Resilience: The backend node cluster is equipped with automatic health checks and failover mechanisms to ensure 99.99% service availability.
5. Future Roadmap
ASDO represents the ultimate form of Web3 interactive experience—Chainless Experience.- Advanced Intent Solving: Future updates will support more sophisticated cross-chain atomic transaction intent identification.
- Custom Asset Indexing: Opens the UAAS interface, allowing developers to customize the aggregation logic of the asset list.
