In the rapidly evolving world of cryptocurrency, the road to success is through innovation and expansion. At PAW Chain, our pace of growth and development has never slowed—if anything, it’s picked up. Over the past few weeks, we’ve rolled out major enhancements to PAW Chain’s infrastructure, tools, and documentation to support our growing community and prepare for what’s next in our development. These updates are more than just upgrades—they’re foundational blocks designed to create a thriving, revolutionary, Layer 3 ecosystem. Furthermore, our unification layer addresses the fragmentation of liquidity and solves the lack of communication among Layer 2 networks, enabling smoother interactions and interoperability across various platforms while ensuring scalability, accessibility, and security at all times.

We’ve been working across all fronts—from validator onboarding and improved delegation tools to the latest in wallet tech and platform education. Whether you're already a part of the PAW Chain community, a project looking to deploy, or someone just getting started, these developments are designed to give you more clarity, more utility, and more power on-chain.

Let’s take a look at some of our improved features:

Validation, Delegation, Lockers, and Scaling

As we continue expanding our Layer 3 mainnet, validator onboarding is actively being worked on to incorporate our chain upgrade and will be available in the coming days. Our unique approach to decentralized validation emphasizes accessibility and fairness while reinforcing network security and uptime. This ensures our infrastructure is robust enough to scale as more users and projects come on board, while never compromising security.

Delegation Tools:
Delegators will have more control with transparent tracking and simplified mechanics for staking. The UI has been fine-tuned for ease of use, with live data integration making it easy to monitor rewards and validator performance.

PAW Locker:
We’ve introduced the PAW Locker to give projects and community members a secure, intuitive way to lock liquidity or tokens for predefined periods. It’s now live, fully integrated, and part of our broader mission to make DeFi safer and more transparent. Down the road, there are plans to introduce our unique multisender feature that will allow for the sending of tokens to multiple PAW Wallets in one single transaction.

Scaling Outlook:
Our Layer 3 architecture is doing exactly what we set out to build: enabling gas-efficient, cross-chain operations with seamless app-layer integration. Expect more applications and smart contract tools to go live as we grow our development environment and onboard new builders.

The PAW Wallet Extension: Now Stronger, Faster, Smarter

One of the most important gateways into the PAW ecosystem just got a major update. The PAW Wallet Extension is evolving alongside our ecosystem—and this latest update is packed with improvements focused on security, UX, and cross-chain readiness.

What’s New in the Extension:

  • SHA-256 signature verification on every transaction call

  • Auto-detection of extension version via the download portal

  • Wallet address now visible on the login screen
