🚀 ZAP Feature Goes Live: Single-Transaction Liquidity Provision
**ZAP functionality is now operational**, enabling liquidity providers to enter pools using any token in their wallet through a single transaction. **Key features:** - Add liquidity without pre-swapping tokens - Support for both concentrated and basic liquidity pools - Streamlined process eliminates need to hold specific pool tokens **How it works:** Liquidity providers can now deposit any asset directly into pools, with the protocol handling token conversions automatically. This removes the traditional multi-step process of acquiring specific pool tokens before providing liquidity. The feature aims to reduce friction and gas costs for users entering liquidity positions across different pool types.
