  • Create automated onchain trading strategies using any MCP-compatible agent

    Now Live — The Carbon DeFi MCP ServerIn February, Bancor Project Lead Dr. Mark Richardson said Carbon DeFi needed to lean as hard as possible into the emerging agent paradigm. Today, that’s not a position — it’s a live product.With the Carbon DeFi MCP server, any MCP-compatible agent can now connect to Carbon DeFi, explore the protocol, build strategies, and manage positions — all through plain language, all with the user signing every transaction.To show what that looks […]

  • The Agent Is the Interface — What MCP Servers Mean for Onchain Trading

    Web2 assumed the interface was everything. If you could build the best dashboard, the most intuitive UI, the smoothest click-through experience, you won.At first, Web3 seemed to make that same assumption. Though in time, it quietly undermined it, realizing most onchain activity doesn’t flow through a front-end. And with the introduction of AI agents, the need for the user to think about a specific app or interface at all is quickly being replaced.The interface becomes the agent.The user […]

  • Carbon Alpha: A New Frontier in DEX Design

    Dr. Mark Richardson, Bancor Project Lead, recently introduced Bancor’s latest invention at ETHZurich: an Arbitrary Mean-Rate Exchange Protocol built around a mathematical principle he calls the Mean-of-Derivatives Property, or MoD.https://medium.com/media/f18037d7b331d68d63ff010fe02f1ccd/hrefAs a Bancor contributor, I’ve known for some time that something significant was taking shape behind the scenes. But knowing that work exists and fully understanding the vision behind it are two very […]

  • TERSE 2026: The Emerging Science of Onchain Systems

    The Token Engineering Research Symposium (TERSE), held during EthCC[9] in Cannes, brought together researchers and builders focused on mechanism design, onchain market structure, and decentralized systems.Alongside TERSE, the Token Engineering Breakout Sessions extended this work into a more applied setting. Together, the two events created space for something that remains rare in the broader ecosystem: focused, research-driven discussion grounded in real systems.The models, assumptions, and […]

  • Migrate Your Position. Set Your Spread. Keep 100%.

    Bancor introduces Carbon DeFi’s new one-step migration feature.Liquidity providers can now move existing positions from other major DEXs in a single transaction.Enabled by support for EIP-7702 — which allows multiple onchain actions to be grouped and executed together — moving a position into Carbon DeFi is reduced to one step.When a user connects their wallet, Carbon DeFi detects supported positions held across leading AMMs. From there, the entire flow is handled in a single […]

  • Pioneer Status: The Bancor Network is one of the longest-standing cryptocurrency projects, and among the first to pioneer decentralized financial applications (dApps) and token swaps. DeFi Deep Dive – What is Bancor? – Moralis Academy They were instrumental in developing AMM technology before it became mainstream.

 

  • Innovation Leader: These features have revolutionized the DeFi space by enabling more efficient liquidity provision and decentralized trading. Bancor Protocol on 1inch | 1inch Network Bancor introduced concepts like bonding curves and liquidity pools that later became fundamental to DeFi.

 

Side Note:

The bancor was a supranational currency that John Maynard Keynes and E. F. Schumacher[1] conceptualised in the years 1940–1942 and which the United Kingdom proposed to introduce after World War II. The name was inspired by the French banque or (‘bank gold’).[2] This newly created supranational currency would then be used in international trade as a unit of account within a multilateral clearing system—the International Clearing Union—which would also need to be founded.
