Introducing COTI 2.0
Private Programmable Money
COTI shifts into its next phase, with a new website to match.
> coti.io
Same foundation. Bolder vision.
1. The Vision
The world's money will soon move the way information does, on open networks. But those networks are public, and nobody wants to run their finances in public.
COTI is now critically tasked with changing that. Its mission is to make private programmable money the global standard, so institutions, businesses, developers and individuals can hold, move and settle value on public blockchains, confidentially.
COTI exists to champion this cause.
2. The Foundation
Since 2017, COTI has built the privacy technology this next phase runs on. It was the first network to run garbled circuits in production, computing directly on encrypted data so inputs stay encrypted from submission to settlement.
Its institutional-grade technology has been developed across leading institutions:
1. European Central Bank
2. Bank of Israel
3. Input Output Global (IOG)
3. Privacy-on-Demand
Privacy-on-Demand serves as COTI's privacy layer for other blockchains. It allows applications to keep their users and assets on their existing chain, while COTI handles the private computation.
Avalanche was the first network to bring it to production. Since September 17, applications on Avalanche have been computing on confidential data, and users have been shielding AVAX and USDC through the Privacy Portal.
Expansion to further networks is a core part of the roadmap.
4. New Products
At the centre of COTI 2.0 are two new products, designed to keep transactions private when moving money between blockchains, and when spending it in day to day life.
1. Interphase - The flagship. It serves as the global privacy layer for moving assets between blockchains, and executing confidential, unlinked transfers across 30+ major networks.
2. COTI Global - A new central application, which allows COTI to be spent as a privacy payment rail for everything in day to day life.
5. What's Next
The new website and public roadmap are the first of several major upgrades coming this month.

Bitcoin made money digital.
Zcash made money private.
COTI makes all money private and programmable.
Public chains are a glass box. Every balance, every transfer, every counterparty is visible to anyone who looks. That works for speculation. It does not work for money.
COTI invented the first private chain with smart contracts. Build, trade, and transact privately. Privacy-on-demand tooling for every major chain, powered by and ran on COTI. Already live on Avalanche. More coming.
╰┈➤ COTI Privacy-on-Demand
All your transactions executed privately on demand. Keep accounts and assets on the chain you already use.
╰┈➤ COTI Interphase
The privacy layer for multi-chain settlement. Confidential, traceless transfers across 30+ major blockchains. Nothing linking sender to receiver, while still compliant. Powered by COTI garbled circuits, the fastest privacy technology in crypto.
╰┈➤ COTI Global
Spend crypto in the real world, privately. COTI Global puts your daily spending, travel, and browsing in one app. One private balance. Only you can see it.
Institutional-grade technology, developed across the European Central Bank, the Bank of Israel, Avalanche, Input Output, and the Cardano Foundation. Built since 2017 toward one idea.
Private money, as the standard that powers all of crypto.

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.

X Spaces with new CEO, Robbie Vander Ghinste, and new CMO, Sara Bouchet
Following community questions, Robbie and Sara will host an X Space tomorrow at 10:00 UTC, covering every point the community has raised.
Preliminary Clarifications
1. COTI Foundation
COTI Foundation continues as is. Robbie is setting a new mission for the project, with a bigger emphasis on commercial development.
Sara joins as CMO, with a background in building consumer apps. She will lead the launch of the COTI app and its products.
2. Wider Roadmap
There is no structural change to the project, beyond the change of management. This is necessary to shape the vision beyond a purely technical focus.
Robbie brings a network, and experience, focused on business applications of the technology. Implementation of $COTI is at the heart of this.
3. Timeline
At the centre of Robbie's focus is a new central application, which allows COTI to be spent as a privacy payment rail for everything in day to day life.
The public roadmap, detailing each milestone the new app will bring, will be published tomorrow.
Confidence is earned. Robbie is committed to years of work on the implementation of $COTI as a private, spendable currency, and to letting that work speak for itself.
4. Community Feedback
The Google form below is for the community to submit their key questions to Robbie and Sara, so they can be addressed in the AMA.
> docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F…
We intend to make this recurring, so that concerns are addressed regularly as COTI becomes a commercial implementation of privacy.

COTI has suddenly brought the restructuring of its Foundation wallets into focus. It is important that they state no new tokens were created and that user balances were not affected. However, there are still serious questions that deserve clear answers.
How much COTI does the Foundation actually hold? Who controls these assets? Who has authority over the newly created wallets, and why hasn’t this control structure been explained more transparently? Why are such significant token holdings being moved now, and why in this particular way?
This is not about claiming that a hack happened or that a sell-off is coming without evidence. The real issue is transparency. The community deserves to know who is managing billions of COTI, how much is being held, where it is held, and under what rules it is being managed.
If COTI wants to build a truly decentralized ecosystem based on trust, critical treasury movements should be accompanied by clear answers—not simply “trust us.”
The questions are simple: Who controls it? How much is there? Where is it? And what authority governs its use?
This is not an attack on COTI. It is a call for greater transparency to protect community and investor confidence.

Avalanche Just Got a New Privacy Layer For Onchain Finance
COTI (@COTInetwork) has launched its Privacy-on-Demand infrastructure on Avalanche (@avax), giving applications access to private computation.
The system lets developers process sensitive information privately while keeping assets and contracts onchain.
COTI’s Privacy Portal is also live on Avalanche C-Chain with private AVAX and USDC support.
Users can now hold, send, and receive supported assets through the privacy-focused portal.
COTI says the infrastructure can support institutional finance, private DeFi, payments, and real-world assets.
The rollout gives Avalanche applications a new way to handle sensitive financial activity onchain.

The irony of onchain privacy...
It's a movement fueled by people who deserve the right to digital privacy, especially in the AI era.
And it would be crushed by many powerful interests that rule the world.
BUT the business and profit case for open public blockchains is so high...
That the world's biggest institutions and enterprises save and make billions by using public chains.
But they literally can't without onchain privacy. So now they are embracing the tech for their interest.
Ironically, onchain privacy has complete aligned incentives from the biggest institution down to the single individual.
But only one protocol provides the general-purpose privacy that solves this bottom up and top down $COTI @COTInetwork

Breaking News
Cardano (ADA) has now been formally detailed by the SEC as a digital commodity, not a security today.
It is written directly into the Commission’s latest interpretive release. (Released Today)
A digital commodity is an asset that derives its value from the programmatic operation of a functional crypto system, not from the expectation of profits driven by the efforts of others.
ADA is listed alongside Bitcoin and Ethereum under that classification.

Dear Elon (@elonmusk, @SpaceX, @grok),
My name is Brandon Titus (@TheBrandonTitus) and I’m writing this with a heavy heart and a sliver of hope, knowing it’s a longshot for you to even see it amid everything on your plate. But as the creator of Grok (who helped draft this), you know better than anyone how AI can amplify voices that might otherwise go unheard. If there’s any “inside track” or way to bump this up—maybe through xAI channels or your team—I’m begging for that edge, because this is the most important request I’ve ever made. Once my dad’s gone, there’s no second chance.
He’s 67, fought liver cancer for five grueling years since retiring, and now his health is fading fast. He hasn’t been the same since the July 4th floods, which wiped out everything including my family’s home and my father’s motorhome. I swam through raging waters to pull him off the roof of my tool shed. My sister relocated him to Marble Falls so she could aid with his medical care while my wife and I rebuild our house for us and 5 or our 7 children that still live at home.
My father has always been rocket-obsessed, from my earliest childhood memories of him explaining launches to me and the two of us building / launching Estes Rockets of all sizes. Then you come along and single handedly saved our nations freedom of speech and seared your name in my father’s heart. You’re one of few people he’s ever held in such high regard. When you caught that first booster, he was transfixed, grinning ear-to-ear like I hadn’t seen in years. Heck, He started an X account solely to keep up with and track SpaceX milestones; it’s been his brightest light through the cancer battles. I never thought I’d see him integrate with technology.
His final lap is weighing heavy on me and memories are my top priority. He has 1 desire (His only bucket list item): Seeing a launch live. Starbase in Texas would be perfect—we’re close, and I can get him there. But with no dates on the near calendar, I’d scrape together funds, I’d even take a second mortgage if needed for Florida, it’s that important. I will figure out the finances if there’s any way you could make it personal—a meet-and-greet, or even just a quick video message—it’d be priceless. His birthday is coming up on February 6. I’m not confident hell see another one.
Honestly Elon, you’re building the future Dad’s always dreamed of. I would be forever grateful if you were able to help me make this memory happen. If there’s any chance this makes hits your radar, know that there couldn’t be a better man for this to happen to. His name is Michael Titus!
DM, reply or anything
Deepest Regards,
🤞🏻 Brandon Titus

🚨 If you hold risk on assets, stop and read this now...
What happened in Venezuela is extremely important to focus on right now.
Many believe we will see a major drop in the cost per barrel of oil due to the reserves the US is taking over.
We got clear confirmation from Trump that the US is willing to sell the oil and essentially take control of their reserves. This is big for one significant reason...
• Venezuela has 303 billion barrels, representing nearly 17-20% of global reserves i.e. $18 TRILLION worth of oil or half of the US debt
If we see a major drop in the cost per barrel of oil, expect risk on assets to go absolutely parabolic for multiple reasons. Let me explain.
Typically when we see the cost per barrel of oil fall it affects the global economy and markets in a big way.
Businesses and consumers essentially see it as a tax cut, leading to more disposable income. This is because the cost for gasoline, heating, and transportation falls.
Consumers account for more than 70% of the US GDP due to consumer spending. More disposable income = more spending = GDP growth.
But, it's not just about consumers. What about businesses? Well now you also see operating expenses dropping in a big way too. This immediately affects profit margins in a positive way, which could lead to businesses expanding their labor force (employment improving). We will also see businesses invest more capital and shareholders see more returns. Win win all around.
So now consumers & businesses are out of the way. They both see disposable income improve, we see GDP growth, employment growth and more spending power among the two.
Now let's talk about monetary policy, which is the biggest game changer for risk on assets. Energy is seen as one of the most crucial pieces of data in the inflation reports.
We haven't received a proper inflation report in 3 months. The last two didn't even include energy and it's probably because if they did inflation would be much higher. This is probably why the FED is hesitate to cut rates this month.
But... that all changed because of this move. With oil prices dropping inflation expectations, CPI & PCE inflation also drop.
This gives the FED the greenlight they have been waiting for i.e the opportunity to either hold or cut rates with practically zero pressure.
Even if they hold rates we will most likely see more liquidity injections, rates for MMFs dropping which have trillions parked in them, and we will see markets expand to the upside.
In other words we just witnessed one of the largest and most bullish economic events in the last few years for risk on assets.
