UMA has announced the launch of oSnap, a new feature that expands the functionality of the Safe.​ Once enabled, oSnap allows users to perform all the actions a Safe can do, including sending funds, deploying tokens, and upgrading contracts.​ This feature also enables users to run an entire protocol trustlessly, without the need for multisig approval.​

Huge news for @MeritCircle_IO, one of the largest gaming DAOs. They're migrating from $MC to $BEAM and launching their own @avax subnet. These are the types of DAO decisions that I would love to see use oSnap for trustless execution. Let's explore how it would work.

UMA Protocol Implements Two Major Upgrades: UMIP-185 and UMIP-186

UMA Protocol Implements Two Major Upgrades: UMIP-185 and UMIP-186

Two significant upgrades have been implemented in the UMA Protocol: - **UMIP-185**: Optimistic oracle now uses hash and pointers instead of full ancillary data, reducing onchain data and gas costs - **UMIP-186**: Settlement Price Approval Threshold (SPAT) increased from 50% to 65%, requiring stronger consensus for dispute votes The SPAT change affects only contentious cases (2% of total votes). In 2025, only 6 out of 291 votes would have been impacted. This upgrade strengthens security for high-stakes decisions while maintaining efficiency.
