Carbon

Carbon is a decentralized cross-chain financial protocol built atop of Cosmos-SDK. Engineered by Switcheo Labs, Carbon is designed specifically to support scalable and secure trading of derivatives and sophisticated financial instruments such as options, futures and bonds.

Carbon also acts as a building block for cross-chain DeFi by bridging the Cosmos and Ethereum ecosystems, allowing for cross-chain money markets and permissionless listing of tokens from IBC, EVM and non-EVM chains.

Upgrade (Ubuntu/Debian)

Wen upgrade, ser?

Since you are using Cosmovisor, you can do this as soon as the upgrade has been announced. No need to wait for the upgrade block! Cosmovisor will monitor the chain and start the new version when it's time.

Compile and install latest carbond

# Download version v2.20.0
mkdir -p $HOME/.carbon/cosmovisor/upgrades/v2.20.0/bin

Sit back and relax

That's it! Now you can wait for the upgrade block. When it happens, Cosmovisor should detect in and launch the new version. You will be up and running in under a minute normally.
