About Bebop

Bebop is an intent-based trading platform developed by Wintermute, one of the largest crypto market makers. Instead of routing through AMMs, Bebop matches orders with professional market makers for better pricing.

The platform offers gasless trading where users sign messages instead of transactions, and Bebop handles execution. This provides MEV protection and often better prices than traditional DEX aggregators.

With multi-token swaps, limit orders, and institutional-grade liquidity, Bebop represents the next evolution of DEX trading focused on execution quality.

Frequently Asked Questions

1inch routes through on-chain AMMs. Bebop uses intent-based trading where professional market makers (primarily Wintermute) quote prices off-chain. This often results in better prices, gasless execution, and MEV protection. Think of it as OTC trading made accessible.

Wintermute is one of the largest cryptocurrency market makers, trading billions daily. They provide liquidity to exchanges and DeFi protocols. Bebop is their retail-facing product that gives regular users access to institutional liquidity.

You sign a message (intent) authorizing the trade. Bebop's settlement contract executes the swap and pays gas on your behalf. The gas cost is factored into the quote. This means you can trade even with zero ETH for gas.

Bebop is built by Wintermute, a reputable market maker. Contracts are audited. The intent-based system means you only authorize specific trades. However, you're trusting Wintermute as counterparty rather than trustless AMMs.

Bebop supports Ethereum, Arbitrum, Polygon, BNB Chain, Optimism, and other major chains. The multi-chain support continues to expand. Check their app for the current list.
