From stronger security and new game rewards to private alpha access and full on-chain functionality, here is everything you need to know.🔒 Protocol UpdatesFirst Security Audit Completed Bakeland’s smart-contract stack has just cleared its first full security audit, conducted by QuillAudits. The reviewers uncovered a handful of issues, two of them labeled high risk, all of which were fixed immediately. With those patches in place, the contracts now sit on a far sturdier foundation, paving the way for broader feature roll-outs.
