COTI at Mozilla Festival 2026 COTI continues to engage directly with the communities and institutions defining the future of privacy. Following NVIDIA GTC Berlin, COTI joined Mozilla Festival in Barcelona, the global gathering for AI policy, digital rights and open-source technology. CEO Robbie Vander Ghinste met with builders, researchers and policymakers to discuss data sovereignty, privacy-preserving AI and the role of financial privacy in the next phase of the internet. Europe is where the standards for privacy and AI are being set. With Berlin and Barcelona back to back, COTI is building a consistent presence across the region’s leading technology forums. For COTI, this momentum reinforces its mission: making private programmable money the global standard.

COTI at NVIDIA GTC Berlin 2026 COTI is extending its footprint across Europe, with a strong presence at NVIDIA GTC Berlin. CEO Robbie Vander met with infrastructure leaders, enterprises and financial institutions to explore what comes next for private computation, secure infrastructure and institutional finance onchain. COTI’s mission is to make private programmable money the global standard. Berlin brought that one step closer, opening new doors across the entire product suite, from Privacy-on-Demand to Interphase.

COTI Powers Privacy on Every Chain Avalanche was the first network to bring Coti's Privacy-on-Demand to production. Since September 16, 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 our roadmap. > https://t.co/cbD65wcfYk 1. The Privacy Requirement Institutions are bringing real assets on-chain. On a public chain, every position and payment is visible to anyone, competitors included. Confidentiality is necessary before that capital can scale. Until now, privacy meant leaving for a separate chain, and taking their capital with them. Privacy-on-Demand allows institutions to stay on yours. 2. Understanding COTI Privacy-on-Demand Privacy-on-Demand is creating a privacy layer for every chain. Shield, trade, and settle to pay, bid, and vote privately, without leaving the network. It is the next joint frontier in the privacy and institutional finance markets, and an embodiment of the confidentiality of finance tied with the liquidity of the chains people already use.

Introducing COTI 2.0 Private Programmable Money COTI shifts into its next phase, with a new website to match. > https://t.co/cbD65wcfYk 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.

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.

COTI is excited to announce its new chapter. Today, Coti Foundation is shifting gears from pure development to a blended approach, to further the adoption of COTI and its privacy ecosystem. The foundation is now critically tasked with creating purpose-built applications that fulfill utilities in daily life, while ensuring transaction privacy. 1. Coti Foundation New Strategy In the coming weeks, Coti Foundation will publish a detailed expansion to COTI's roadmap, with an emphasis on expanded COTI token spending ability. It serves as a decentralized ecosystem, which companies and merchants across the world can join to expand their payment rails to include a privacy infrastructure. The foundation exists to champion this cause. The current management will step down and COTI will come under the direction of ZK Foundation, led by Robbie Vander, who has deep experience working in web3 venture space. That network will now spearhead COTI's focus on business development. 2. COTI Token This shift is designed to take the network and its asset to new utilities, led by a consortium that will focus on regions across the world. Exciting new methods to use and spend COTI tokens are due soon this year. 3. Privacy Market Distinction The biggest company in web3 is not an exchange or trading firm. Privacy firms are mostly focusing on trading. The industry's kingpin is Tether, for their emphasis on making a spendable currency. That is going to be COTI's focus. Rather than solely creating private trading tools, Coti Foundation is going to emphasize making private transactions a part of daily life. In a seamless, united interface. We will soon announce an AMA with Robbie so the community can get a deeper grasp of the new vision of Coti Foundation. 4. Closing Points Under Shahaf's leadership, COTI built much of the technology and institutional foundation that makes this next phase possible. He will continue to bring that experience to COTI as an advisor. Robbie's vision goes in full effect with COTI 2.0 campaign, which starts next month. Get ready!
