At Zebu Live - UK's Flagship Web3 Summit, Bancor Co-founder Eyal Hertzog shared how feedback from professional market makers shaped Bancor’s evolution — from inventing the technology that underpins the CPAMM to building Carbon DeFi. “The people that were least happy about the whole concept (AMM) were traditional market makers — the institutional kind.” “It wasn’t something they could work with. It was too simplistic for professional market makers.” DeFi was built to move liquidity away from centralized exchanges. To do that, it had to evolve from simple pools to structured strategies. Carbon DeFi brings what no other DEX — or even CEX — can offer: custom, automated market-making strategies that run fully onchain.
