Bancor and Velocimeter Launch Innovative DeFi Products on Fantom Network

Bancor's Project Lead presents research on a novel approach to decentralized exchange design at the Ethereum Research Symposium. **Key Innovation:** - Traditional DEX design starts with a bonding curve and derives rate behavior - This research inverts the process: define desired rate behavior first, then construct the curve - Introduces the Mean-of-Derivatives (MoD) property as a new primitive **Event Details:** - **Talk:** An Arbitrary Mean-Rate Exchange Protocol - **Location:** EthPrague, Ethereum Research Symposium 2026 - **Date:** Saturday, May 9 - **Time:** 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM [Register here](https://luma.com/o7tthdzr)

Carbon DeFi has introduced a new migration tool that allows liquidity providers to transfer positions from other decentralized exchanges in a single transaction. **Key Features:** - One-step atomic transaction for position migration - Ability to set custom spreads during transfer - Liquidity providers retain 100% of their positions - Powered by EIP-7702 support The feature simplifies the process of moving liquidity between platforms, eliminating the need for multiple transactions. Providers can migrate their existing positions from major DEXs while simultaneously configuring their trading parameters. This development aims to reduce friction for users managing liquidity across different protocols in the DeFi ecosystem.

Carbon DeFi has introduced the **Arb Fast Lane**, an arbitrage framework approximately **20 times faster** than previously published designs. The system serves as Carbon DeFi's built-in solver, maintaining price parity across chainwide liquidity. **Key Features:** - Advanced DEX capabilities including limit, range, and recurring orders - Concentrated and full-range liquidity options - Programmable market making between any two standard ERC-20 tokens - Integration with chainwide liquidity from major DEXs The platform addresses two fundamental market requirements: liquidity and efficient arbitrage. EVM-compatible blockchains interested in deployment can contact @PrimalGlenn. [Learn more at Carbon DeFi](http://app.carbondefi.xyz)

CarbonDeFi has introduced **Recurring Orders**, a feature enabling automated buy-low-sell-high trading strategies. **Key features:** - Two linked orders (buy and sell) that automatically fund each other when executed - Strategy makers retain 100% of custom spreads with full adjustability - Supports any standard ERC-20 token pair - Uses built-in solver system for efficient order filling across chain liquidity The tool consolidates what traditionally required dozens of manual steps into a single strategy, designed to reduce friction for professional traders managing range-bound positions.

**Carbon DeFi's Concentrated Liquidity** enables traders to create custom liquidity positions with unprecedented flexibility. **Key Features:** - Pair any two standard ERC-20 tokens - Define custom price ranges without tick constraints - Set personalized fee tiers and spreads - Edit prices, pause, or modify strategy types without withdrawing funds **Technical Advantages:** - **Native auto-compounding** automatically reinvests earned fees - **Built-in solver system** sources liquidity across the entire blockchain, keeping positions actively trading Unlike traditional DEXs with preset parameters, Carbon DeFi gives users complete control over their liquidity strategies while maintaining continuous market exposure.
