COTI, Currency Of The Internet, positions itself as a foundational currency for a new kind of internet - one where payments are fast, private, and programmable. While the phrase “currency of the internet” has been used loosely across the crypto space from Bitcoin’s earliest days to stablecoins and beyond. But COTI has a specific take on it. It’s not just about speed or decentralization. It’s about trust, privacy, and usability at the protocol level.
COTI started as a payment Layer 1 aiming to be that “currency of the internet” fast DAG-based transactions, merchant solutions like ADA Pay, and the ability to issue branded coins. That was V1. Now, with COTI V2, the term takes on a new meaning. COTI isn’t trying to replace fiat or become the next Bitcoin. Instead, it’s becoming the token that powers encrypted computation, private financial logic, and confidential applications, the kind of backend currency the modern internet actually needs.
Think less "spending coin," more utility token for programmable privacy:
-
Want to run private payroll on-chain? You’ll need computation paid in COTI.
-
Building an app that protects user data while still processing logic on-chain? Same deal.
-
Deploying private AI inference? Again, COTI covers the cost of the privacy layer.
That’s how COTI is positioning itself, not as a general-purpose internet coin, but as the native currency for encrypted, modular Web3 infrastructure.
Is it catchy branding? Sure. But the underlying vision is real. The internet is becoming programmable. Smart contracts are becoming mainstream. And privacy isn’t optional anymore. So what’s the “currency of the internet” in the world COTI’s building?
It’s a token that helps computation happen without compromise - not just faster or cheaper, but private by design.
