What is Magpie?π¦
Magpie Protocol is a decentralized liquidity aggregation protocol for cross-chain swaps. It provides the best deal on any asset, across many of the top blockchains, all without the need for the user to bridge any assets themselves. The end result is an extremely fast and gas-efficient solution to cross-chain swaps. π

How does Magpie work? βοΈ
Magpie accomplishes cross-chain swaps by sending messages using the generic messaging layer on bridges to initiate and execute swaps across chains. Magpie uses bridges to send a swap instruction message to a relayer on the destination chain and once the relayer confirms the message, it sends the chosen asset to the user's wallet on the destination chain. π οΈ
Normally, this process would involve visiting multiple websites, dApps, and DEXs, approving each one in order to complete many swaps. However, Magpie simplifies the entire process: simply choose the token pair and the chains you want to swap between, you are provided with the best offer, and then you click swap. This streamlines what is typically a multi-step process into just a few clicks.
