      Governance Vault: Secure Team Management


      Managing user access within a team has never been easier—or more secure—thanks to Governance Vault. This new feature ensures that sensitive user management actions are subjected to a multi-party approval process.

      Highlights:

      • Multi-Party Approval Process: All user management actions—such as adding and removing users—must undergo review and approval by multiple designated validators. This ensures any changes are rigorously overseen.
      • Enhanced Security: By involving multiple trusted team members in the approval process, sensitive changes are fully vetted, minimizing the risk of unauthorized access or mistakes.
      • Collaborative Decision-Making: Governance Vault distributes decision-making responsibility across key validators, promoting accountability and reducing errors in user management.
      • Permanent Activation: Once enabled, Governance Vault cannot be deactivated, guaranteeing that your approval process remains consistently in place.
      • Customizable Approval Threshold: Select an approval threshold that best suits your business needs, ensuring the right level of security and control.

      Availability:

      Governance Vault is available on the io.vault Dashboard.

      Updates to Terms and Conditions: 

      In line with this release, we have made minor updates to our Terms and Conditions: 

      • New Definitions: A descriptive definition of Admin User(s) and User(s) has been added to the Definitions section.
      • Data Migration Window: If you do not agree with any modifications to the Terms and Conditions, you now have 30 days to migrate your data and assets or find alternative services.

      You can access the latest version of our Terms & Conditions HERE.

      For comprehensive guidance on how to set up and configure Governance Vault, please refer to our User Guide.

      Background Signing: Enhanced Signing Flexibility

      This feature allows your signing devices to remain connected and active in the background, even when the device is locked or the app is not in the foreground, provided it remains powered on. This ensures signers do not need to coordinate in real time, making the process smoother and more convenient.

      Key Benefits:

      • No Real-Time Coordination Required: Signers can approve or reject requests at their convenience within the 10-minute signing window, eliminating the need for all parties to be present at the same time.
      • Seamless Experience: Once a request is approved, devices continue to participate in the signing process in the background without requiring immediate user interaction.
      • Security Maintained: Despite the added convenience, the security of your secret shares remains robust and uncompromised.

      Requirements:

      • To use Background Signing, you will need to activate location services on your device. This allows the io.vault app to run in the background, even when your device is locked or not actively in use. 
      • All signers must be on the latest version, v3.0.2, to ensure smooth and reliable operation of the multi-party signing feature. 

      For more insights on this recommended feature, please refer to our User Guide.

      TRON chain and Custom Gas Fees are now available

      We are thrilled to announce the integration of the TRON chain and custom gas fees into io.vault. These new features offers users additional chain options, while allowing customisation to their gas fees which lets them better manage their transactions costs and priority of transactions while moving assets from io.vault across all of the supported networks. 

      What is TRON? TRON, a decentralized blockchain platform known for its high throughput and smart contract capabilities. This integration not only includes TRX tokens but also extends support to TRC-20 assets, specifically USDT on TRON.

      Key Benefits of the TRON Integration:

      • Enhanced Security: Leveraging io.vault's trustless Multi-Party computation security, users can confidently store and manage their TRX and TRC-20 tokens, including USDT, with peace of mind.

      • Seamless Trading: The integration facilitates smooth and efficient trading of TRX and TRC-20 assets, offering users the ability to capitalize on market opportunities quickly.

      • Diverse Asset Management: With TRON now available on io.vault, users have access to a more diverse range of digital assets, enhancing their portfolio management options.

      What is Custom Gas Fees? The customisation of gas fees for transactions which provides the option for users to pay lower or higher gas fees depending on the priority of the transaction and network state. 

      Key Benefits of the Custom Gas Fees:

      • Customization allows users to adapt to network and market conditions, choosing higher fees during peak times / lower fees during off-peak times.

      • Allows users to plan their transaction strategies more efficiently, optimizing both cost and speed according to their needs.
      • Allows users to cancel the transaction/s when it is in submission state (not once it has been complete to the chain).

      Please note - The custom gas fee integration only relates to BTC, ETH and ERC-20 Tokens as a phase 1 roll out.

      Version 2.30.1 of the io.finnet app is now available on the App Store. Please update your app to make full use of TRON and custom gas fees features.

        • Lending assets for yield
        • Collateralized borrowing
        • Swapping/trading between different assets
        • NFT trading & storage

      • User-Friendly Experience: Enjoy streamlined interactions with decentralized applications while maintaining a secure multi-approval process for compliance with internal policies and controls.

      Please note: WalletConnect is currently in a Beta period and we are constantly working to improve the feature. If you would like to participate in the Beta, please review the known issues below and confirm you are comfortable with proceeding. 

      Known issues

      Issue Status Workaround (if available)
      The WalletConnect session may disconnect if a user refreshes or navigates away from the ‘Dapps’ page.  Fix in progress. Do not navigate away from the 'Dapps' page.
      Dapp requests do not appear unless the user is on the ‘Dapps’ page.  Fix in progress. Do not navigate away from the 'Dapps' page.
      When navigating to transaction details for a DEX swap only the parent transaction details are displayed. Fix in progress. Please use the block explorer link to view all additional transaction details.
      Contract call “Method” names are displayed as their encoded values rather than decoded human readable forms.  A fix for this has already been deployed internally and should be available soon. No current workaround.
      Aave - repay with collateral occasionally fails when using “SignMessage” approval method.     To Mitigate this issue, switch the approval Method to Transaction instead of “SignMessage”. This will allow you to repay borrowed assets using collateral on Aave.
      If the browser is refreshed with Aave on it, it will disconnect the user from WalletConnect. Fix in progress. Avoid refreshing your browser tab with Aave on it. If this does occur, please disconnect from Aave and reconnect to WalletConnect.
