DEX aggregator CoW Swap's core team has proposed adding fees in a six-month test
The CoW Swap core development team has released a draft proposal that would see the protocol add fees for 6 months to test which model is best suited for long-term adoption.
The core developer of the protocol, which incorporates other decentralized exchanges (DEX) such as Uniswap and 1inch and offers MEV resilience to provide the best prices to its users, said the goal of the test is to “develop a reliable and sustainable revenue stream” by testing different fee models , including taking a percentage of the money users save by using CoW Swap versus competitors and charging a flat fee for each trade.
Fee revenue will accumulate to the Contract of Work DAO, the proposal explains, and the core team will provide public notice of all current fees while testing is underway. The CoW Swap team did not immediately return The Block's request for comment.
