Carbon (SWTH) is the native cryptocurrency and governance token of Carbon, a layer 2 trading protocol that powers cross-chain financial markets and infrastructures. It is a custom-built sidechain that utilizes the delegated Proof-of-stake (dPOS) consensus mechanism integrated into Tendermint Core. The security of Carbon is ensured through staking SWTH with a decentralized network of validators. Stakers are rewarded with network and trading fees for their participation. The protocol is highly versatile, secure, and composable, enabling developers to easily implement and scale decentralized applications while overcoming blockchain limitations. Carbon is interconnected with various Layer 1 chains such as Ethereum, BSC, Neo, and Zilliqa, acting as the foundation for the future of decentralized financial economies in the multi-chain world.
