THORNode
Fixes include an ability to make a deposit TX without needing any assets, some renaming on event attributes to help with Midgard, and some bug fixes around fees on staged pools. A new feature is the ability to track pending amounts on vaults, so solvency apps can be built to monitor any discrepancies.

Midgard
Work continues to update Midgard V2 to handle Multichain requirements and fix any depth divergences. Swaps now also have USD pricing attributes. There are still some outstanding issues to fix on Midgard, but these are not critical and will be fixed in time.

- a few general UI updates. Updated background, non-native-RUNE notification rework, windows horizontal scrolling issue, standardize modal “close” button, force market logos to circle
- fixed small bug on deposit where changing pools after erc20, the “approve” button would remain
- bug on safari where angular material modals were shifting everything creating a weird white space at the bottom of the page
- basic minimum amount guards, so people have to use more than 0.0001 BTC, for example
- filter out non-native RUNE tokens for deposit and pool create
