New Achievements

DeHeroGame Technical Testing

The GameFi application DeHeroGame, also the first dApp deployed on the Rangers Protocol network, ran technical testing on the Rangers Protocol mainnet from July 14 to July 28.

During the trial, users got to experience the updated gameplay and win generous rewards in the card upgrading activity while being invited to report bugs and share suggestions to help improve the game.

The trial went successfully, with all reported bugs and suggestions responded to and more upgrades including an optimized registration process scheduled to deliver in the following version.

Grand Guard Launch

On July 21, Rangers Protocol officially released the multi-signature safe Grand Guard, aiming to help businesses and mass users to manage their blockchain assets on the Rangers Protocol mainnet.

Grand Guard is a smart contract wallet that provides complete control over one’s funds and offers support for RAP-20 compatible FT assets and NFT collectibles, ensuring privacy and providing gasless signatures.

Users are now free to create a new Grand Guard account, add an existing safe, and receive funds in less than 60 seconds by following the detailed tutorial on Rangers Protocol’s Gitbook.

Partnership with UniPass

Rangers Protocol also entered a strategic partnership with the non-custodial wallet UniPass in July to provide a seamless experience for mass users and Web3 developers and lower the usage threshold for vast dApp users on the Rangers Protocol network.

UniPass allows users to get non-custodial wallets and start their dApp experience more easily and safely only through a simple email registration, thus helping the dApps on the Rangers Protocol network to better attract Web2 users.

UniPass has already developed a customized version for the Rangers Protocol network and integrated with DeHeroGame and went through a successful DeHeroGame technical testing on the Rangers Protocol mainnet recently.

Rangers Protocol will carry forward its strenuous work on technical development, ecosystem expansion, and more. Please stay tuned for the latest progress.
