🦉Gnosis Weekly Recap ~ 27 November 2024
As we wrap up 2024, one thing stands crystal clear: the future of human coordination lies in credibly neutral technology. From NodeBridge Africa launching their first mainnet validator, to CoWSwap reaching record-breaking volumes, to heated debates at DevConflict about Ethereum's future - our community continues to prove that decentralized coordination works.
As we approach 2025, we invite you to join us in building this future. Whether you're running a validator, participating in governance, building on Gnosis Chain, or simply using our tools - you're part of something bigger: the mission to make decentralized coordination technology accessible to everyone.
Let's dive into this week's updates! 🚀
📈 CoWSwap Milestone: Record-Breaking Growth
CoWSwap hit an impressive milestone this month with trading volume reaching an all-time high of 5.3B! Looking at the monthly volume chart since its launch ~3 years ago shows remarkable growth, particularly in recent months. From humble beginnings in April 2021, CoWSwap has evolved into a major DEX player, demonstrating the growing demand for MEV-protected trading. The steady upward trajectory over H2 2024 reflects growing user trust and market validation of CoWSwap's unique approach to fair, efficient trading. Congrats to the Cow team!
