- Bebop will offer users to dramatically reduce gas fees by allowing bundling multiple token trades into one transaction.
- The new decentralized exchange is backed by Wintermute, a well-known crypto market maker.
- Bebop’s end goal is to facilitate the transfer of value across any asset in a permissionless way.
Bebop, a decentralized exchange (DEX) backed by Wintermute, a well-known crypto market maker, has launched on the Polygon blockchain after being open for whitelisted traders on Ethereum over the summer.
Bebop claims to stand out among its competitors because of its signature one-to-many and many-to-one token trading, which allows users to trade multiple cryptocurrencies in one trade and save up to 65% on gas fees. This is similar to what rollups do – they bundle multiple transactions into one to significantly reduce gas fees.
According to Katia Banina, Head of Product at Bebop, launching Bebop on Polygon further reduces gas fees.
“As a zero-slippage platform offering full fee transparency, we are always looking for ways to deliver efficient execution. By DeFi standards, Polygon fees are negligible, which is paramount for delivering this efficiency to all users, for any transaction size”, she said. According to Bebop, its ultimate goal is to facilitate the transfer of any value, be it cryptocurrencies or non-fungible tokens (NFTs), in a permissionless and decentralized manner.
“Imagine the future where you are able to convert any digital asset you own to any other asset, from an NFT collectible on one chain to tokenized crypto company bond issued on another. All this without even thinking how it’s possible — all because of the advanced technology and ultimate user simplicity,” said Evgeny Gaevoy, founder and CEO of Wintermute. Polygon has announced a few other high-profile partnerships during the last few weeks. The Ethereum side chain project that’s currently developing its own zkEVM, and has onboarded Meta to allow its users to sell NFTs on Instagram. Banking giant JPMorgan (NYSE:JPM) also recently made its first-ever DeFi transaction on Polygon.
On the Flipside
