Episode notes

In our model, they are kind of executed in a batch or basically each block is one batch. So those two trades can already be matched against each other. Only the remaining part then needs to be traded against the automated market maker. We give those those fairness guarantees that they get the same price. Can you say the acronym again for cow? It was coincidence of once.

This week Anna and Tarun chat with Martin Köppelmann, CEO of Gnosis. The company was known for championing prediction markets, but Gnosis has now shifted to making key infrastructure products. Martin chats about this transition and explains Gnosis’s current products, which include a unique DEX called CowSwap and a number of products for managing DAO treasuries and governance.
