Gearbox x CoWSwap

Gearbox's core vision is to be a leverage middle tier that increases capital efficiency for its users.

CoWSwap is an ecological decentralized trading platform for Gnosis. CoW is a completely unlicensed trading protocol that uses bulk auction as its price discovery mechanism. CoW protocol enables bulk auction to maximize liquidity through demand consistency (CoW), in addition to utilizing all available on-chain liquidity when needed. Bulk auctions are run continuously by agreement, and the winning party will be the solver that maximizes trading surplus by having the best CoW, finding the best source of liquidity, or combining the two in a single settlement.
