CoW Protocol Introduces Fair Combinatorial Batch Auctions
CoW Protocol consistently ranks among top DEX aggregators for pricing, yet batch auctions sometimes don't provide optimal individual trade outcomes. Here's why: - Batch auctions create intense solver competition since they must compete for every trade in a batch - Unlike Dutch auctions (used by Uniswap/1inch), CoW's batch system considers entire batches, not just highest bids - New research introduces Fair Combinatorial Batch Auction solution that: * Guarantees traders get at least standalone auction value * Maintains benefits of batch competition * Addresses surplus shifting issues Independent research confirms CoW Protocol's superior performance across key metrics.
