CoW Protocol Overview

Welcome

CoW Protocol matches trades via batch auctions for a variety of on-chain liquidity sources.

Trades can be settled via underlying on-chain AMMs directly or via DEX Aggregators, depending on which pool/path offers the best price. It is thus essentially acting as a DexAggregator of the DexAggregators.

In addition to that, before finding the best price for a trade from available on-chain liquidity, CoW Protocol first seeks a coincidence of wants within the existing batch to offer an even better price than any pool can.
