## Who is Bazaar?

Bazaar is a decentralized, chain-agnostic launchpad
providing crypto-natives with a fair, community-centric approach to
fundraising. Bazaar offers the most competitive fee structure for both users
and projects, while incentivizing high-quality launches and community-led
curation. The protocol supports liquidity bootstrapping pools, with support for
additional launch mechanisms such as uncapped and capped batch auctions coming
soon.

Bazaar enables seamless, one-click cross-chain swaps across Ethereum and
supported Layer 2 networks, effectively abstracting away the convoluted process
of navigating between networks for the end user, while making it easier for L2
protocols to bootstrap natively. The future is undoubtedly multi-chain, and
projects launching on Bazaar can tap into universal liquidity across Ethereum,
Optimism, Arbitrum, Base, Polygon, ZkSync Era, and additional networks in the
near future. Performant cross-chain UX is the end-game for all crypto-native
applications, and Bazaar is bringing this vision to market today.

### How is Bazaar involved with Cove?

An uncapped batch auction was held on April 22, 2024 on Bazaar for 0.95% of the
\$COVE supply in exchange for ETH to help bootstrap protocol owned liquidity.
