New Solver Incentive Program on Gnosis Chain
New Solver Incentive Program on Gnosis Chain
🤖 Calling All Solvers!
Gnosis DAO, in collaboration with Karpatkey, is launching a 6-month program to incentivize solvers on the Gnosis Chain. The program aims to award 180,000 xDAI to active solvers, with the goal of improving trade execution for users of the CoW Protocol. CoW Protocol finds the lowest price for trades across multiple exchanges and aggregators while protecting users from maximal extractable value (MEV) issues.

Understanding Cross-Chain MEV: Impact and Solutions
MEV (Maximal Extractable Value) has evolved beyond single-chain operations into cross-chain territory. Here's what you need to know: Current Landscape: - 5 entities control 80% of Ethereum block building - Cross-chain MEV coordination is increasing - Trades often receive suboptimal pricing Protection Strategies: - Use MEV-resistant RPCs - Monitor slippage parameters - Consider private tx pools - Implement MEV protection for critical transactions Future Solutions: Projects like SUAVE are working to make MEV more equitable by: - Implementing user compensation for MEV - Fostering builder competition - Enhancing cross-chain transparency [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.
