Bancor's Arb Fast Lane Launches on Linea

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.

**CarbonDeFi has launched a new Migrate feature that simplifies liquidity migration across DEXs.** - Powered by EIP-7702, the feature enables liquidity providers to move positions from other major decentralized exchanges in a single atomic transaction - Eliminates the traditional multi-step process of withdrawing, approving, and redeploying liquidity - Providers can migrate positions, set spreads, and retain 100% of their liquidity without complex transaction flows The atomic transaction approach reduces gas costs and execution risk compared to previous migration methods.

**Carbon DeFi offers structural immunity to MEV sandwich attacks** through its unique architecture, rather than treating protection as an add-on feature. **How it works:** - Each trade operates on its own single-token bonding curve - Makers set prices in advance - Execution guarantees the exact pre-set price This design fundamentally prevents the price manipulation that enables sandwich attacks, which have affected over 26,000 victims on Ethereum mainnet in the past 30 days alone. The protocol's approach differs from traditional DEX models by giving liquidity providers (makers) price certainty at the architectural level.

CarbonDeFi has launched Range Orders, a feature that allows traders to execute positions gradually across custom price ranges rather than at single price points. **Key Features:** - Users define specific price zones for accumulation or exit - Trades execute progressively as market prices move through the defined range - Eliminates need for precise timing or price chasing - Implemented as a single onchain strategy The tool addresses how most traders naturally think about positions—in zones rather than exact prices—by translating that approach into an automated execution mechanism. Range Orders are now available at [app.carbondefi.xyz](http://app.carbondefi.xyz)
