Dear COTI Community,

We want to acknowledge and address @b0bcrypto's recent research. We appreciate his efforts, and we would like to clarify the key patterns noted:

Liquidity Provision: Tokens allocated to our market maker are deposited primarily to Binance (and other exchanges) to maintain strong, efficient liquidity for $COTI trading. The observed rapid mint-to-forward cycles are part of this standard operational process to support market depth and ecosystem activity.

Rewards and Tokenomics: Minted tokens follow our published algorithmic inflation model, detailed in our tokenomics spreadsheet [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1I-fPiCEKhXh35XLf6QUuiPq0oc52FW7DR_9IfgHK4e8/edit#gid=0

and our whitepaper [https://coti.io/files/COTI-technical-whitepaper.pdf]. Allocations include 58% for community rewards, which go to treasury participants, Earn users, and other contributors across the ecosystem. Once tokens are distributed, third parties manage their tokens independently, as we don't control their subsequent actions.

We value the community's focus on transparency, and we're always committed to providing it. We invite ongoing dialogue by reaching out directly or via community channels.

Thank you for your continued support.
