Under the Hood

A deeper look at DLN’s internal mechanics, covering order flows, solver behavior, and asset handling to support advanced integrations and edge-case transparency.

The deBridge Liquidity Network (DLN) is designed to abstract away the complexity of cross-chain swaps for users and integrators. However, understanding the protocol's internal mechanics is essential for implementing robust, production-grade integrations—especially in advanced use cases or when troubleshooting edge behavior.

This section provides a deeper look at the underlying architecture and processes that power DLN. It covers how orders are created, settled, and fulfilled; how solvers operate; and how asset behavior differs depending on whether reserve or non-reserve tokens are used.

What This Section Covers

The pages within this section explain foundational DLN concepts that may not be required for basic integration, but are highly relevant for understanding:

• Reserve assets

• Order cancellation

• How solvers evaluate and fulfill orders

• General order creation flow

Whether building a high-volume integration or customizing edge cases, these pages offer insight into how DLN works under the surface.

This section focuses on conceptual understanding. For implementation specifics, refer to the API Reference or Integration Guides.
