Saffron Weekly (08/18/22)

What’s new in the week of 8/18/22–8/24/22.

Happy Thursday! Let’s go ahead and dive in with what’s new with Saffron:

Saffron x Koge Update

As we outlined earlier, Saffron is in the process of taking over maintaining KogeFarm and the Koge community. The official hand-off of is nearly complete, but let’s welcome the Koge community to the Saffron ecosystem!

Saffron V2 Audit Currently Underway

We currently have an audit underway by n-var for Saffron V2 and progress is coming along smoothly! We’ll have more details to share on that front soon. In addition, we’ll have a Quantstamp audit beginning on the 29th of August.

Developer Update

Turpintinz gives us our weekly update on his progress on the Badger integration:

An update regarding the Badger DAO integration. Last week the Badger DAO team suggested we integrate with one of their new in-beta vaults because they do not require whitelisting of our contracts. We can simply deploy ours and use their new vaults without any permission. Psykeeper and I decided to adjust our implementation to use their Aura — BADGER/WBTC vault. Given that a test deposit and harvesting of their new vault yielded 36% APR (currently, Badger advertises 45.8%), adjusting the Saffron contracts looks like a great idea. I started the contract changes last week and plan to have them completed this week including adjusting all tests.

That’s all for this week! We’ll be releasing some more observable notebooks regarding the fixed income product in the near future.
