Panther Protocol Announcements

Dear Panther community,

It is time to give you the latest about what has been achieved this week.

As we get closer to Panther’s Mainnet launch, most updates are about getting the protocol ready for its launch on Polygon!

✅ The code for the Mainnet DAO proposal is being prepared! This PIP is the biggest milestone for the Panther Protocol ecosystem since the launch of the Limited Mainnet Beta version, so we are super excited about what’s ahead.
✅ PureFi is applying fixes to the data extraction of the KYC procedure for creating new zAccounts prior to Panther’s Mainnet launch.
✅ Multiple performance improvements have been successfully applied to the Panther dApp! For example, the dApp bundle size has been decreased. The Panther dApp now loads faster in the browser and will be more responsive.
✅ Significant progress has been made in network switching within the dApp. Each chain has its own tokens, zAssets, balances, UTXOs, and transaction history. Some additional updates on the wallet engine side are underway as well!

Aside from this, the development team is working to fix a voucher issue with the Recharge AMM functionality.

That’s a wrap! We will keep you posted as we progress towards Panther’s Mainnet launch, and would like to share that the Mainnet proposal draft is already available for review on the Panther DAO forum. Onwards and upwards!

Panther’s latest DAO proposal, PIP-34, has passed!

The DAO has approved the allocation of grant-funded budget to support development and testing activities relating to the Panther Protocol ecosystem and authorized the DAO Council to engage independent contractors.

Keep an eye on our social channels as we progress towards Panther’s Mainnet launch!

Dear Panther community,

We are happy to share this week’s development update!

This week's update includes multiple protocol updates, as well as what is being worked on at the moment:

✅ The issue with the non-$ZKP-collected fees as part of the treasury functionality has been fixed.
✅ An issue that sometimes caused balances to be displayed incorrectly on the dApp has been fixed.
✅ Panther’s Base deployment is being added to the dApp! The send, withdraw, and zSwap functionality of Panther’s Base deployment has been successfully tested.

This week, the dev team has been addressing CORS errors and fixing a zSwap-related bundler error. And finally, there is an issue with the recharge AMM functionality that is being worked on. We will keep you posted on the progress. Onward we go!

PIP-34 is now LIVE for voting!

This proposal approves the allocation of grant-funded budget to support development and testing activities relating to the Panther Protocol ecosystem.

Dear Panthers,

The PIP-34 draft has been shared on the Panther forum today!

This proposal sets out a grant-funded budget for development and testing activities across the Panther Protocol ecosystem, focused strictly on improving quality, security, and usability.

It proposes engaging known individual contributors directly, rather than using external development firms.

Panther’s latest DAO proposal, PIP-33, has passed!

The DAO-operated Zone on Polygon will become the official live operational environment of Panther Protocol under full DAO control!

The Panther DAO has voted to formally launch the DAO-operated Zone on Polygon upon confirmation that all transactions, scripts, and agreement signings approved under PIP-32 have been completed and executed.

Panther’s latest DAO proposal, PIP-32, has passed!

Panther's core administrative and operational layer will be fully DAO-controlled ahead of the protocol's next phase.

The Panther DAO now has a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free licence to use, modify, deploy, and operate the Panther dApp as a non-custodial, open-source interface and finalizes the DAO’s governance structure for Panther’s mainnet launch.

It is happening!

PIP-33 is now LIVE for voting!

This proposal formally launches the DAO-operated Zone on Polygon upon confirmed completion and execution of all transactions, scripts, and agreement signings approved under PIP-32.

No new contracts are deployed, and no funds are moved. This proposal authorises activation only.

PIP-32 is now LIVE for voting!

This proposal completes the transition of the ownerSafeDao Safe on Polygon to full DAO control by removing the remaining legacy individual signers and leaving the DAO Safe (newSigner) as the sole owner.

It also authorises Panther DAO to enter into two agreements with the Panther Protocol Foundation, formally aligning the project's public website and dApp interface with DAO governance.

Together, these actions finalise Panther Protocol's governance structure ahead of the next phase of the protocol.
