Summary
- yAuditDao: 1337 Codebase Auditors Enhancing Protocol Scalability via Comprehensive Security Reports, complete with risk-mitigating strategies and solutions. yAudit is Yearn’s auditing wing that shares 10% of revenue generated with Yearn. Already rapidly scaling, EOY Yearn revenue target for 2023 is $80k!
- ApeWorX Ltd: “Futureproofing Web3” via Ape Templates and plugin structures to “make whatever you want in Web3”. Devs at Yearn discuss how they utilize Ape’s helpful tools in various ways.
- 4626 Alliance: A group of leading protocols and applications unified in building with the ERC-4626 tokenized vault standard. ERC-4626 will be used by Yearn’s v3 vaults for easier vault integrations, plugin utility, and far-reaching “composability across the entire ecosystem.”
