Step 2: Explore Rewarded Carbon DeFi Markets

Before creating a strategy, users can explore Carbon DeFi pairs currently participating in COTI Earn:


https://coti.carbondefi.xyz/explore/pairs?filter=rewards


This view shows rewarded Carbon DeFi markets where strategies and liquidity positions are already participating and earning TPS daily.



Step 3: Choose an Eligible Token

Select one of the eligible Season 4 tokens and decide which token you want to pair it with on the COTI Network.



For Carbon DeFi missions, the eligible token does not need to be paired only with another eligible token. It can be paired with any token on COTI, as long as the position meets the campaign requirements.



Step 4: Create a Strategy or Liquidity Position on Carbon DeFi

Head to Carbon DeFi on COTI and use your eligible token to create a trading strategy or liquidity position.

Carbon DeFi gives users several ways to deploy liquidity, depending on how they want their tokens to behave in the market.

What Can You Create on Carbon DeFi?

Carbon DeFi is not a one-size-fits-all DEX. Users can choose from multiple strategy types, each designed for a different trading or liquidity objective, including Carbon DeFi exclusives.


Limit Orders

Set the exact price where you want to buy or sell.

There is no expiry, orders can fill partially or fully, and execution only occurs at the price set by the maker.




Range Orders

Buy or sell gradually through a custom price range.

Instead of choosing one exact price, users define a range and let the order fill progressively as market activity moves through it.




Automated Recurring Orders

Link a buy order and a sell order together, creating an automated buy low, sell high cycle.

As one side of the strategy fills, acquired tokens rotate to the opposite side, allowing the strategy to continue operating as market conditions move between the two orders.




Concentrated Liquidity

Provide liquidity for a selected token pair to be bought and sold within a specific price range.

On Carbon DeFi, users can define custom ranges and custom spreads without preset fee tiers or tick constraints. Fees earned by the strategy are auto-compounded directly back into the position.


Full Range Liquidity

A wide range liquidity position covering up to 1000x from current market price.

COTI Agent Skills help agents handle the first steps of onchain participation with 8 skills, an SDK, and 48+ MCP tools for wallet setup, starter grant funding, transaction support, and signing.

The Carbon DeFi MCP Server gives compatible agents access to 25 tools across strategy and action types, allowing them to explore live protocol data, simulate concentrated liquidity and recurring strategies, prepare strategy creation transactions, and manage existing positions.

The Carbon DeFi MCP Server connects agents to Carbon DeFi’s trading infrastructure, allowing them to explore live protocol data, simulate concentrated liquidity and recurring strategies, prepare strategy creation transactions, and manage existing positions.

For example, a user could instruct an AI agent:
“Create a Carbon DeFi strategy on COTI using USDC for Season 4 rewards.”


A Season 4 agent-assisted flow could look like this:

  • Create an agent wallet on COTI

  • Claim starter grant funding

  • Select an eligible Season 4 token, such as USDC, USDT, wETH, wBTC, wADA, COTI, or gCOTI

  • Pair that token with another token on the COTI Network

  • Backtest strategy parameters using Carbon DeFi simulation tools

  • Create a Limit Order, Range Order, Recurring Strategy, Concentrated Liquidity position, or Full Range Liquidity position

  • Review and sign the prepared transaction

  • Monitor and manage the position over time


For users and builders, Season 4 becomes a live environment where AI agents can create eligible Carbon DeFi strategies and participate in COTI’s onchain economy through real DeFi actions.
