TL;DR

  • COTI’s protocol will undergo a hard fork during which MultiDAG 2.0 will be deployed.
  • MultiDAG 2.0 release will officially transition COTI from a single currency infrastructure to a multi token layer.
  • CMD (COTI MultiDAG) is the name of the new and unique token standard.
  • Node operators need to update their nodes by August 2nd.
  • Hard fork MultiDAG 2.0 Testnet deployment will be on August 2nd.
  • Mainnet deployment will happen approximately one month later.

The biggest leap in COTI’s history is happening right now. COTI’s protocol will undergo a hard fork which will transition COTI from a single currency infrastructure to a multi token layer. During this hard fork COTI is launching MultiDAG 2.0. With this change, also comes a new token standard: CMD (COTI MultiDAG).

COTI is the Enterprise Layer 1. We worked hard for many years to make our solution unique from others and fit for the enterprises’ needs. MultiDAG 2.0 was the missing piece in the puzzle that completes this vision. We are defining a new token standard issued on the Trustchain, similar to the ERC20 token on Ethereum, but on a single DAG.

MultiDAG 2.0

COTI’s unique MultiDAG 2.0 protocol enables branded enterprise tokens to be generated and minted in seconds on top of COTI’s Trustchain. These tokens inherit Trustchain capabilities such as scalability, high throughput, lower costs, and seamless payment applications.

Shahaf Bar-Geffen, COTI’s CEO said: “CMD, the New Token Standard for COTI, represents the MultiDAG 2.0 launch and is the most significant milestone for COTI. By Supporting issuance of tokens on top of our protocol, we are accomplishing our vision in becoming the enterprise layer 1. Years of hard work have culminated in this game-changing event and I can’t wait to see more enterprises using COTI’s technology”.

The timeline for MultiDAG 2.0:

  • All of our node operators were asked to update their nodes in the next 15 days, until August 2nd. Please follow the instructions on Discord.
  • Hard fork MultiDAG 2.0 Testnet deployment: August 2nd.
  • Hard fork MultiDAG 2.0 Mainnet deployment will happen approximately one month later.

As a new era for COTI begins, we are excited to share this moment with you. In the following weeks we will announce a “M2E — Mint 2 Earn” activity on the Testnet environment where you will be able to mint your own tokens. We will share tutorials, AMA’s and more, so stay tuned!
