COW Protocol

Stop searching for better prices
CoW Protocol finds the lowest price for your trade across all exchanges and aggregators, such as Uniswap and 1inch – and protects you from MEV, unlike the others.

The smartest way to trade crypto assets.

Lower prices thanks to CoWs.

CoW Protocol matches trades peer-to-peer where possible, cutting out the middleman and saving you money. (We call this a Coincidence of Wants – CoW!)

Never pay more than the cheapest alternative.

No need to compare prices on 1inch, Uniswap or another exchange. CoW Protocol searches them all for you, so you get the best price available.

Protection from MEV.

CoW Protocol is the industry leader in protecting users from frontrunning and sandwich attacks, which lose traders thousands of dollars every day. It does this by matching trades peer-to-peer, and leveraging batch auctions [→] so trade order becomes irrelevant.

Keep your surplus.

If a price moves in your favor after you've placed an order, CoW Protocol gives you the price at the time of execution.
