CoW Protocol Proposes New Auction Mechanism
CoW Protocol has initiated voting on CIP-67, a significant proposal to transform their trading mechanism. The proposal aims to replace the current batch auction system with a fair combinatorial auction model. This follows the recent CIP-65 which addressed solver reward allocations for buy orders. - **Key Change**: Transition from batch to combinatorial auctions - **Action Required**: $COW token holders can vote on the proposal - **Voting Link**: [Vote on Snapshot](https://snapshot.box/#/s:cow.eth/proposal/0xf9ecb08c4738f04c4525373d6b78085d16635f86adacd1b8ea77b2c176c99d32)

Understanding Cross-Chain MEV: Risks and Solutions
MEV (Maximal Extractable Value) has evolved beyond single-chain operations into cross-chain territory, presenting new challenges for traders. Key points: - 5 entities currently control 80% of Ethereum block building - Cross-chain MEV coordination is increasing, potentially affecting trade prices - Users can protect themselves through MEV-resistant RPCs and private transaction pools Emerging solutions: - SUAVE project aims to make MEV more equitable through user compensation - New protocols focus on MEV-resistance and cross-chain protection - Proper slippage settings and MEV protection tools are crucial for critical trades [Learn more about cross-chain MEV](https://cow.fi/learn/understanding-cross-chain-mev)
Study Shows CoW Swap Leads Intent-Based DEXes in Decentralization and Volume
A comprehensive 6-month trading analysis reveals CoW Swap's dominance among solver-based DEXes: - **Higher Trading Volume**: ~$200M daily vs $60M (1inch Fusion) and $30M (UniswapX) - **More Decentralized**: Top solver only controls 25% market share, with next five at ~10% each - **Better for Large Trades**: Shows best execution improvement for trades over 100 ETH The study compared CoW Swap, 1inch Fusion, and UniswapX, finding solver-based DEXes generally outperform traditional alternatives through optimized routing and off-chain liquidity access.
