COTI Ops Update
Following the last update, the team and the market maker have engaged in constructive discussions and have reached an amicable resolution.
1. Resolution
The team has acquired the market maker's full COTI position. Both parties accepted the terms, and the matter is now closed.
2. Reasoning
A significant allocation sat with a party whose interests had diverged from the project's.
Legal processes take months. COTI does not have months to spend on a distraction. Acquiring the position resolves the matter now, in full, and on the team's terms.
3. Team Alignment
The team committed its own capital to the original purchase. That commitment is now substantially larger.
Team ownership of COTI is at its highest since the handover, and its incentive is the same as the community's: the success of COTI.
4. Closing Points
With the matter resolved, every hour goes to delivery. Q4 is about the product roadmap and expanding the utility of the COTI token. That's paramount.
COTI is excited to announce its new chapter.
Today, Coti Foundation is shifting gears from pure development to a blended approach, to further the adoption of COTI and its privacy ecosystem. The foundation is now critically tasked with creating purpose-built applications that fulfill utilities in daily life, while ensuring transaction privacy.
1. Coti Foundation New Strategy
In the coming weeks, Coti Foundation will publish a detailed expansion to COTI's roadmap, with an emphasis on expanded COTI token spending ability.
It serves as a decentralized ecosystem, which companies and merchants across the world can join to expand their payment rails to include a privacy infrastructure. The foundation exists to champion this cause.
The current management will step down and COTI will come under the direction of ZK Foundation, led by Robbie Vander, who has deep experience working in web3 venture space. That network will now spearhead COTI's focus on business development.
2. COTI Token
This shift is designed to take the network and its asset to new utilities, led by a consortium that will focus on regions across the world.
Exciting new methods to use and spend COTI tokens are due soon this year.
3. Privacy Market Distinction
The biggest company in web3 is not an exchange or trading firm. Privacy firms are mostly focusing on trading.
The industry's kingpin is Tether, for their emphasis on making a spendable currency. That is going to be COTI's focus.
Rather than solely creating private trading tools, Coti Foundation is going to emphasize making private transactions a part of daily life. In a seamless, united interface.
We will soon announce an AMA with Robbie so the community can get a deeper grasp of the new vision of Coti Foundation.
4. Closing Points
Under Shahaf's leadership, COTI built much of the technology and institutional foundation that makes this next phase possible. He will continue to bring that experience to COTI as an advisor.
Robbie's vision goes in full effect with COTI 2.0 campaign, which starts next month. Get ready!
"The people that have stuck it out...you're here cuz you believe in the vision & because you believe that through supporting this network over so many years that there will be a reason. It's just like supporting any business. That's how we look at it now."

The crypto market structure bill has PASSED the Senate Banking Committee with a bi-partisan vote!
Historic day for crypto and for the future of digital assets in America. Grateful for the countless hours from lawmakers and staff to strengthen this legislation. Big improvement from where we were in January on rewards, tokenization, DeFi, and CFTC authority. I'm proud we stood up for our customers in that moment, and the bill is better because of it.
Looking forward to a bipartisan law that cements the US as the world's crypto capital. Let's get CLARITY done.
Dear COTI Community,
We want to acknowledge and address @b0bcrypto's recent research. We appreciate his efforts, and we would like to clarify the key patterns noted:
Liquidity Provision: Tokens allocated to our market maker are deposited primarily to Binance (and other exchanges) to maintain strong, efficient liquidity for $COTI trading. The observed rapid mint-to-forward cycles are part of this standard operational process to support market depth and ecosystem activity.
Rewards and Tokenomics: Minted tokens follow our published algorithmic inflation model, detailed in our tokenomics spreadsheet [https://t.co/tZihyrCFJO] and our whitepaper [https://t.co/HPrgNkcbKu]. Allocations include 58% for community rewards, which go to treasury participants, Earn users, and other contributors across the ecosystem. Once tokens are distributed, third parties manage their tokens independently, as we don't control their subsequent actions.
We value the community's focus on transparency, and we're always committed to providing it. We invite ongoing dialogue by reaching out directly or via community channels.
Thank you for your continued support.
COTI recently dropped its goals for 2026 🏆
Goal #3: Unlock the $30T Real World Asset (RWA) Market.
In 2026 COTI will integrate with leading RWA infrastructure to launch the world’s first private RWAs on-chain, and open the floodgate for privacy RWAs.
Institutions cannot and will not move RWAs on-chain without compliant confidentiality. COTI’s fast, programmable privacy layer is key!

Agree on the direction, but we can’t build serious apps until developers, not the protocol, control read-only rights. That’s the path we’re taking at @COTInetwork. Also, I’m interested in how you imagine something as complex as a perp DEX, or in fact anything that is multi-party, actually running efficiently with ZKs?
We are minutes away from passing the GENIUS Act.
Congratulations to @SenatorHagerty on this historic, bipartisan achievement, and a big thank you to @LeaderJohnThune and @SenatorTimScott for their visionary leadership. Let's get it done!
