About Carbon Protocol
Carbon is a cross-chain protocol that acts as a building block for DeFi. Carbon protocol allows anyone to bootstrap open financial markets for any asset type, on any blockchain. Carbon powers Demex, a popular, fully decentralized exchange for trading a plethora of financial instruments. Powers interoperability between blockchains like Ethereum, Cosmos, BSC, Neo and Zilliqa with true cross-chain liquidity pools through the PolyNetwork bridge. Supports any DeFi innovation with native support of crypto derivatives, Balancer-style liquidity pools, AMMs, on-chain order books and more. Custom-built using Cosmos-SDK and secured by a large network of validators through Tendermint PoS for trustless and safe transactions. Powers interoperability between blockchains like Ethereum, Cosmos, BSC, Neo and Zilliqa with true cross-chain liquidity pools through the PolyNetwork bridge.
