Cross-chain DeFi is the dream, but the reality?
A frustrating dance of separate bridges, swaps, high fees, and security risks. Billions lost to vulnerabilities. 😩
It's time for a change.
Starting today, CoW Swap users can swap across chains.

🧵Not all MEV protection RPCs are created equal.
A new study by @VinyasAlex & Paul Janicot dives deep into the performance of top RPC providers:
- Flashbots
- Merkle
- Blink
- MEV Blocker
Spoiler: MEV Blocker stands out. Here's why. ⛱️

🚨 New research alert! 🚨
@vpahari and I are putting the final touches on a new paper, which will be available in the next couple of days. In the meantime, here’s a sneak peek 🧵
There's a new 👑 in town.
CoW Protocol's share of the DEX aggregator market by volume just passed 40% for the first time ever. 🤯
ETH has officially caught CoW fever. 🐮

Thank you everyone! 👏
MEV Blocker has been putting in the work! 🏋️♀️
Our stand alone MEV Blocker has protected $221 billion in DEX volume. 🙅♂️
That's a lot of sad bots. 😭
Want to keep MEV out of your business? 🙋♂️

Should have used CoW Swap. 🤷♂️
No matter the slippage, you'll still get a better deal, see for yourself:

Even with 20% slippage, our MEV protection ensures you don't get rekt. 🤑

1/ With the resurgence of DeFi, established names like AAVE and Maker, alongside newcomers such as Jupiter and Hyperliquid, have gained market share and visibility due to their strong fundamentals over the past few years.
One notable player that has shown similar attributes but has not received as much attention is CowSwap. The team chose the product-led marketing route, and recently became the leading DEX aggregator product. Some quick thoughts on how they rose to the top, while even attracting the Trump's circle:
At its core, @CoWSwap has always prioritized optimizing the user experience. Their innovative Coincidence of Wants (CoW) design aims to match buyers and sellers in a way that AMMs and order books cannot. This approach is most effective when there is ample buying and selling activity at any given time, increasing the likelihood of direct matches. The recent growth in batch size can be attributed to the increase in trading volume and user count in the past few quarters, leading to better price execution for users.
The trading experience on @base keeps improving thanks to CoW Swap and @bankrbot!
Now, Bankr users can set limit orders powered by CoW Swap with just a message. Who needs complicated interfaces?
Seamless limit orders that work your way. Intent-based, gasless, MEV-protected. 🐮
Every month, 30-42% of traders return to @CoWSwap - one of the highest retention rates in DeFi.
Most DEXs lose users to high fees, failed txns, & MEV attacks that make trading costly.
Yet, traders keep coming back to CoWSwap.
The question is, what’s keeping them hooked?

Don't see any Angstrom docs — feels like CowSwap got to this idea >1 year ago?
