Welcome to Part 5 of our FRM Token Utility Series! Today, we're exploring the diverse 'Ecosystem Utilities' of the FRM token, showcasing how it serves as a key to unlocking various opportunities within the Ferrum Network.
Holding cFRM elevates your status within our community, granting you exclusive access to presales of emerging projects incubated by The Decentralized Incubator.
FRM is designed with scarcity in mind. Whether used as gas or generating transaction fees via Crucible, a part of FRM is consistently removed from circulation, enhancing its long-term value.
A part of the profits from LaunchTech and The Decentralized Incubator is reinvested into buying back FRM from the market. This ensures ongoing demand and support for the token's value.
π Seamless Transactions with MultiSwap:
FRM is set to be used as the fee token for MultiSwap. A portion of the fees that are accrued through MultiSwap are used to supplement the sustainable rewards model.
Staking your Crucible tokens with FRM unlocks sustainable rewards, optimizing the utility and benefits of your digital assets.

π¨ Important Security Notice of Web3 Exploit - Ferrum dApps Don't Seem to be Impacted π¨
As per PeckShield and other sources, a major exploit has impacted various platforms including SushiSwap. Affected parties have disabled their front-end websites as a precaution.
βοΈ We strongly advise against interacting with any dApps across Web3 until further notice. The safety of our community is our top priority.
π The exploit appears to stem from a compromise in Ledger's Content Delivery Network (CDN) and affects certain Web3 Connectors. We are closely monitoring the situation and will provide updates as more information becomes available.
π‘οΈ Status of Ferrum Network dApps
Currently, Ferrum dApps do not have ledger functionality enabled, so there should be no direct impact from this exploit on our dApps. However, as a safety measure, we have temporarily taken down all Ferrum dApp front-ends and activated a maintenance page.

π£ Ferrum Systems Live - Not Impacted by Ledger Exploit
π Ferrum systems are now live and operational. The ledger exploit identified yesterday that impacted many web3 dApps did not impact Ferrum dApps. However, the exploit did have an impact on MetaMask itself as the wagmi/core and wagmi/connectors SDK as well as the ledger/connect package, were compromised.
Even though Ledger, Wallet Connect, and MetaMask pushed out fixes yesterday, the malicious code could remain in the cache for a 24-hour TTL period.
πAs a precaution, Ferrum paused our dApp interactivity for this period to protect user funds from the exploited code on third-party dApps and wallets.

π¨ Important Security Update: Revoke Approvals on Exploited and Test Contracts π¨
We are reaching out to inform you of a recent security incident in the Web3 ecosystem that may affect users who have interacted with various dApps, these precautions should be taken even if you have interacted with Ferrum Network dApps.
π As a precautionary measure, we advise all our users to revoke approvals for any dApps they have interacted with, particularly those involving recent transactions or engagements. This action is necessary due to potential vulnerabilities linked to a recent security incident in the Web3 space.
π οΈ Please refer to our tutorial article for detailed steps on using Revoke.Cash to revoke approvals.
π While our dApps currently do not have ledger functionality enabled, we took down our dApp front-ends and activated a maintenance page as a precaution. You can see more detail about our reasoning here.
βοΈ We urge all community members to take these precautionary steps seriously to ensure the safety of their digital assets. We appreciate your cooperation and understanding as we navigate this situation together.
Best Practices for Keeping Funds Safe:
1. Keep HODL wallets and dApp Interaction wallets separate
2. Review the information before you sign anything - Clear Sign
3. Only use burner wallets when beta testing

We acknowledge that we're a bit behind schedule with MultiSwap, but we're committed to keeping you informed with the latest developments. While the journey has had its challenges, we're steadily making progress. Here's where we stand:
πIntegration Complete: We've added native token support on the backend, responding to your valuable feedback.
πTesting & Launch: Expect to see these new features go live between tomorrow and next week.
π§ MetaMask SDK Integration
πEnhanced User Experience: We're integrating the MetaMask SDK to resolve Gas Estimation issues, mirroring the efficiency of platforms like UniSwap and PancakeSwap.
πCompletion & Deployment: This major improvement is set to be finalized this week, with a launch slated for the same period.
πPhase One: Kicking off with Arbitrum and BSC, we're starting with the top 10 tokens by volume on each network, including native tokens.
πWeekly Token Additions: Each week, we'll announce the addition of new tokens, enhancing trading options on MultiSwap.
πDAO Votes for Network Expansion: The community will have a say in which networks we add next - be it Polygon, Optimism, Avalanche, etc.
πGradual Expansion: Initially, the rollout will begin with limited liquidity. We'll progressively scale up liquidity, tokens, and networks according to our rollout plan.
π οΈ Why a Phased Rollout?
πSafety First: The latest code is pending a security audit. We're finalizing updates to ensure everything is top-notch before submitting for a comprehensive audit.
πCommunity Engagement: This phased approach allows us to engage with our community and fine-tune MultiSwap based on your feedback while we await the audit completion.
πPost-Audit Expansion: Once audited, we'll rapidly expand networks, tokens, and liquidity.

Our mainnet team's focus this week has been on enhancing the overall experience for both developers and miners within the Quantum Portal Network. Here's a glimpse of what we've been up to:
π οΈ Developer Experience Improvements
πStreamlined Onboarding: We're developing intuitive tools aimed at simplifying the onboarding process for Quantum Portal Miners. These enhancements are designed to make the integration more user-friendly, ensuring a smoother journey for new miners joining our network.
πOff-Chain Signature Aggregation: A significant upgrade in progress is the implementation of off-chain signature aggregation. This approach will optimize transaction processes by bundling multiple signatures off-chain.
πReduced Gas Costs: By aggregating signatures off-chain, we significantly cut down on the gas costs incurred by miners. This not only streamlines operations but also makes participation in the QPN more cost-effective for miners.
