Bancor maintains a deep dedication to prioritizing research, a value clearly demonstrated by its role in the Token Engineering Research Symposium (TERSE). By partnering with @EthCC and @tokengineering, this event institutionalizes the approach taken by Bancor Project Lead @MBRichardson87, who has famously used public technical channels for rigorous scrutiny rather than promotional activities.
If you possess work that merits serious consideration, we warmly invite your contribution.
Symposium Details Submission Deadline: February 20, 2026 Event Date: March 31, 2026 Location: Cannes, France (EthCC[9]) Submission Portal:
Carbon DeFi distinguishes itself as the sole decentralized exchange capable of facilitating Maker-style Limit Orders with a unique set of features.
Universal Token Compatibility Users are free to design strategies utilizing any pair of standard ERC20 assets.
Absolute Execution Precision You determine the exact price or range in advance. Transactions occur strictly at your specified figure rather than relying on the best available market rate.
Indefinite Order Duration There are no expiration dates. Your orders remain active until the market meets your specific requirements.
Complete Independence The protocol functions without any external dependencies, meaning there are no hooks, keepers, or oracles involved.
Added Flexibility You can seamlessly adjust your budgets, pricing, and strategy configurations. There is no need to withdraw your funds and reconstruct a strategy just to make changes.
Experience trading defined entirely by your own rules.
On @CarbonDeFixyz, users designing strategies have the flexibility to configure two independent orders, one for purchasing tokens and another for selling them, set at any specific price levels they desire. These individual positions are then interconnected. Once linked, the capital obtained from one transaction is automatically shifted to fund the other. This creates a continuous, self-sustaining trading loop that operates without requiring hands-on management. Discover the details behind Automated Recurring Limit Orders 👇
Nascent technical sectors truly flourish when subjected to intense scrutiny. In these early stages, better outcomes are achieved when claims undergo challenging questions, models face public debate, and disagreements are welcomed. While mature fields like engineering and science formalize this process through seminars, editorial standards, and peer review, the blockchain industry often drifts away from these practices. Too often, the sector values optimistic narratives and consistency rather than accuracy and examination.
In a joint effort with @tokengineering and @EthCC, Bancor is opting for a distinct path. We are establishing an academic forum rooted in intellectual discipline, offering you a platform to present your research at EthCC[9] on March 31, 2026. We require submissions to feature lucid problem statements, openly stated assumptions, and a detailed account of methodologies, findings, and limitations.
We encourage contributions related to cryptoeconomics and token engineering. Appropriate themes encompass the design of protocols, mechanisms, incentives, and markets. We also seek work regarding simulation, verification, economic security, and governance, as well as research bridging legal, economic, and technical restrictions. Whether your work is a peer-reviewed paper or a project in progress, it is welcome here, provided it is strictly research-oriented and avoids promotion.
Range Orders on @CarbonDeFixyz enable users to establish a custom price range for buying or selling, removing the requirement for multiple stacked orders or manual swaps.
When the market price navigates through that range, Carbon DeFi’s built-in solver system (the Arb Fast Lane) sources available liquidity chainwide to efficiently fill the order.
This stands as a new DeFi primitive, available solely on Carbon DeFi and licensed Carbon DeFi deployments.
Currently live on Ethereum, Sei, Celo, COTI, TAC, and Base via @AlienBaseDEX.
**Strengthening Blockchains: One Transaction at a Time**
Market efficiency is the backbone of long-term blockchain health. The impact of Carbon DeFi and the Arb Fast Lane drives progress in three essential ways:
**Price Stability:** By executing arbitrage across decentralized exchanges, the Arb Fast Lane aligns pricing, tightens spreads, and minimizes market volatility.
**Higher Trading Volume:** When prices are stable, trading activity increases. This leads to deeper liquidity and supports stronger, more resilient token markets.
**Network Growth:** Continuous transaction flow and reliable gas usage are signs of a thriving network—building user confidence and inviting new projects to the space.
On every chain where they operate, @CarbonDeFixyz and the Arb Fast Lane are helping transform fragmented liquidity into a healthy, unified ecosystem.
Bancor is proud to announce a collaboration with @tokengineering Academy and @EthCC for the TE Research Symposium (TERSE) at EthCC[9] 2026 in Cannes.
TERSE creates a technical commons that benefits builders, reviewers, and users alike, facilitating the translation of research into deployed systems with significantly fewer misunderstandings. It is designed to improve how our industry communicates technical work in public, requiring clear problem statements, explicit assumptions, defensible methods, results, and limitations, presented entirely without promotional intent.
Project Lead Dr. @MBRichardson87 has published a blog post that outlines the rationale and submission expectations: https://t.co/OpQYNvnY3p
Submissions are now open. Deadline: 20 February 2026.
On @SeiNetwork, Arb Fast Lane activity continues to accelerate, with a 29% increase in week over week activity.
The Arb Fast Lane serves as @CarbonDeFixyz’s built-in solver system on Sei, continuously sourcing liquidity from across the network to fill orders as markets move.
The result: Carbon DeFi strategies continuously trading and prices staying aligned across Sei.
Carbon DeFi stands as the exclusive DEX allowing users to configure maker-style limit orders that remain active until they are filled — compatible with any two standard ERC20 tokens:
✅ no expiration ✅ executed via chainwide liquidity through the built-in solver system of @CarbonDeFixyz
Now live on Ethereum, @SeiNetwork, @Celo, @COTInetwork, @TacBuild, and @base through the @AlienBaseDEX licensed deployment.
Arb Fast Lane on @Celo continues to gain momentum, marked by a 21% increase in week over week activity.
The Arb Fast Lane fulfills two primary purposes:
• Functioning as @CarbonDeFixyz’s built-in solver system, it sources liquidity from major DEXs on Celo to fill orders and keep strategies actively trading.
• Maintaining price parity throughout Celo, it supports a more efficient trading experience chainwide.
Carbon DeFi shifts trading from impulse to intent with a strategies-based framework—systematic, rules-based, and native to the protocol by design.
Exclusively on @CarbonDeFixyz: • Maker-style Limit Orders with no expiry and 100% price certainty • One-directional Range Orders for structured scaling • Recurring Orders that automate repeating buy low, sell high trading cycles—comprised of linked buy and sell orders.

With @SeiNetwork’s SIP-3 upgrade (expected late March), Sei will transition to an EVM-only chain, resulting in the removal of support for Cosmos-native assets such as USDC.n.
Holders of USDC.n are advised to plan their migration to native USDC prior to the upgrade.
On Sei, execution paths now include the following:
1. Carbon DeFi, with swaps routed across the ecosystem via @OpenOceanGlobal for chainwide liquidity and execution. 🔗 https://t.co/G6WFybhcMM
2. @carina_finance, which is now routing trades via @CarbonDeFixyz. 📢 https://t.co/0k5GhHh9aQ
Please monitor official Sei announcements as the timelines finalize.
On @CarbonDeFixyz, you can switch back and forth between different strategy types—including the traditional AMM structure, concentrated liquidity, and asymmetric buy low, sell high order types.
