Authors: Fry, 0xMaha, 0xAhtle, Hephyrius

Summary

We are delighted to present Aura Finance's proposal for strategic cross-chain deployment onto the Gnosis Chain. This significant milestone marks Aura's fourth deployment in its cross-chain rollout, aiming to unlock growth opportunities, expand our presence, and elevate the Balancer ecosystem.

Having achieved successful launches on Arbtrium, Optimism, and Polygon PoS™️, Aura Finance is now preparing for deployment on Gnosis Chain. This move will allow users to deposit BPTs (Balancer Pool Tokens) on Gnosis Chain, providing access to the cross-chain veBAL delegated boost.

Moreover, it enables seamless bridging of AURA tokens from Ethereum Mainnet to Gnosis Chain, further enhancing accessibility and flexibility for our community.

Audits and testing

At Aura, security remains our utmost priority. All newly introduced contracts and integrations have undergone thorough audits. We have received two audit reports from Halborn and Zellic.

Additionally, our new contracts have been subjected to rigorous testing, boasting 100% unit test coverage, fork tests, fuzz tests and independent review.
