With a collective mission to tackle the barriers to widespread adoption of the crypto industry, Orion Protocol and COTI have joined forces. Orion Protocol will drive limitless liquidity to the COTI network via COTI-X, while COTI will enable greater accessibility of Orion Protocol via COTI Pay.

COTI is a fully encompassing “Finance on the blockchain” ecosystem, specifically designed to meet the challenges of both centralized finance (fees, latency, global inclusion and risk) and Decentralized Finance DeFi (fees, clogging and complexity) by introducing a new type of DAG based base protocol and infrastructure that is scalable, fast, private, inclusive, low cost and is optimized for finance.

COTI Pay can process all payment types, both online and offline, including crypto and stable coins, credit cards, and a merchant’s native coin.

Built on the most advanced liquidity aggregator ever developed, Orion Protocol will aggregate the liquidity of every crypto exchange into one decentralized platform: providing a decentralized gateway to the entire crypto market. Orion Terminal will enable traders to trade across the liquidity of every CEX, DEX, and swap pool at the best possible price with zero slippage.

Enabling greater accessibility of Orion Protocol

Orion Protocol will become a COTI Pay Merchant, furthering fiat onramp to Orion Terminal through the integration of ORN, Orion’s native token, into COTI’s fiat processing gateway and wallets. Terminal users will benefit from quick and safe payments, zero FX fees, and buyer-seller protections. The integration also has the potential to unlock further functionality of the ORN token including loyalty points and cashback rewards, as well as borrowing and lending via Celsius Network which is integrated into the COTI platform.

Driving liquidity to COTI-X

With 17 revenue streams and counting, ORN has unrivalled utility across the Orion ecosystem, comprised of enterprise solutions for crypto projects, blockchains, and exchanges such as Orion Liquidity Boost Plugin: bringing endless liquidity to exchanges immediately, from every CEX, DEX, and swap pool.

COTI-X is the instant settlement layer of all forms of value on the COTI network for users, consumers, and merchants alike and is powered by the various COTI-X liquidity pools. Orion Liquidity Boost Plugin will enable COTI-X immediate access to any source of liquidity in the market, enabling virtually limitless liquidity and tight spreads on all currencies within the COTI ecosystem. COTI-X forms a critical part of the overall COTI ecosystem, allowing COTI to bootstrap and supply liquidity to both the COTI network and external networks in a manner not previously possible. As such, Orion will play an integral role in bolstering the growth of the COTI network.
