15.2
Release Notes - Version 15.2
December 11, 2025
Highlights
Version 15.2 marks a major evolution with the STRATO rebrand, visible rewards everywhere, and enterprise-grade bridge reliability. Experience the refreshed STRATO identity with new logos and dark mode, see your reward earnings in real-time on every page, and enjoy seamless cross-chain transactions with automatic failover protection.
🎁 Rewards Visible Everywhere
See Your Earnings on Every Page
The biggest change in 15.2: reward calculations now appear on every page where you can earn. No more guessing how your actions affect rewards - see the impact before you confirm any transaction.
What You'll See
Every activity page now shows a Compact Rewards Display with:
- Current earnings - "Earning Now: X pts/day" shows your current reward rate
- Projected impact - As you type amounts, see how your rewards will change
- Visual feedback - Green arrows for increases, red for decreases
- Percentage changes - Exact percentage impact on your earning rate
Where It Appears
Look for the gold rewards box on:
- Lending Pool - Deposit/withdraw USDST to earn interest
- Liquidity Pools - Add/remove liquidity from swap pools
- Borrow - Borrow USDST against collateral
- Swap - Exchange tokens
- CDP - Mint USDST with collateral
- Safety Module - Stake for protocol security
Example
🪙 Earning Now: 15.3 pts/day
↗️ After Deposit: 22.1 pts/day (+44.4% ↑)
Why This Matters
Before: You had to visit the Rewards page to understand your earnings. Rewards felt disconnected from your actions.
Now: Every decision shows its reward impact immediately. You can optimize deposits, swaps, and liquidity provision to maximize earnings.
🌉 Enhanced Bridge Reliability
Automatic Failover for Uninterrupted Cross-Chain Transactions
The bridge now routes through the STRATO backend with automatic fallback protection, ensuring your cross-chain transactions succeed even when external providers have issues.
How It Works
- Smart routing - Primary provider attempts transaction first, automatically switches to backup if needed
- Seamless failover - Switches happen instantly without user interruption
- Secure credentials - All API keys stay protected on the server
- Authentication required - Only logged-in users can make bridge calls
Benefits
- Reliable - Bridge stays operational even during provider outages
- Secure - No exposed credentials, authentication prevents abuse
- Monitored - Centralized logging helps detect and resolve issues quickly
Real-World Impact
If your primary RPC provider has an outage, the system automatically switches to the backup provider and you continue your transaction without interruption - no bridge downtime.
