Despite stormy seas in the crypto market, Swell is making progress towards two key milestones: The TGE and the launch of Swell L2.
Recent highlights include the onboarding of new team members, progress on rswETH withdrawals, and yet more partnerships and liquidity opportunities.
Dive on in to discover all the latest from Swell.
🕵️rswETH Withdrawals Audit
We have received the rswETH v2 upgrade audit reports back from Sigma Prime and Nethermind.
Remediation of the rswETH v2 contracts is currently ongoing. Once the remediation process is complete, we will be running through some rigorous testing of rswETH withdrawals prior to release.
Once fully audited and tested, rswETH withdrawals are expected to be released this month.
🤝 Swell Partners with Gauntlet
Swell is proud to partner with DeFi risk leader, Gauntlet.
Gauntlet will act as the risk manager for rswETH, and assist in maximizing rswETH’s risk-adjusted yield. The partnership also includes advising Swell on AVS allocation, rewards management, and collateral management.
⛓️Swell L2 Updates
Recent DeFi protocols and AVS’s to announce deployment on Swell L2 include:
Aligned
Built on EigenLayer, Aligned is a proof verification layer that offloads the verification of validity and ZK proofs from mainnet, helping to make transactions on Swell L2 cheaper and faster.
Solv Protocol
SolvBTC, the liquid yield token for Bitcoin, will soon be restakable on Swell L2.
Pre-Launch Pendle PT Migration
To remain eligible for a share of 1M EigenLayer Point bonus, you need to keep your assets deposited until the L2 launches in Q3.
If your Pendle PT position has matured, you will need to redeem it to continue accruing the yield of the underlying asset. You are able to withdraw your PT and redeem it for the underlying, then deposit the underlying token (or the equivalent value in another supported token) back into the Pre-Launch, without forfeiting your share of bonus EigenLayer Points.

But what's really interesting is how it leverages the concept of pooled security through restaking to build its own rollup.
