The Garden Monthly: August 2025

TL;DR: Garden got a complete makeover (it's gorgeous), SUI and Core joined the party, and early SDK integrators already pushed $15M through the pipes.

gm gardeners! 🌸

August delivered $98,674,151 in volume from 4,774 orders. That's 160 orders daily, or 6 every hour. Plus, 1,528 new users tried Garden for the first time, the highest number of fresh gardeners in any month this year.

Canon Event

Garden got a full glow-up, landing page, app, explorer, everything. The brand refresh is more than just looking pretty. It's about making your swaps feel as smooth as they actually are.

Big Items

• Your BTC can now teleport to Sui trustlessly and bounce back to Bitcoin in 30 seconds flat. Another non-EVM chain conquered.
• Launched on Core with WBTC support, perfectly timed for their upcoming lstBTC launch. 
• Garden routes are live on Rango and Clypto. More aggregators spreading the gospel of 30-second swaps.
• Remember July's ETH birthday gift? The native asset revolution continues; BNB and SUI are now supported natively on their chains. Bitcoin started it, but we're not stopping there.
• Early SDK adopters are crushing it: Rango, Onmeta, Clypto, and dKit have collectively driven over $15 million in volume from 5,000+ swaps.
• USDC maintained its top 3 spot from July, but here's the kicker: volume more than doubled. Near-free swaps really do hit different.

Technical Updates

• Garden is now also available as a Base mini app, bringing 30-second swaps directly inside the Base app. 
• ERC-4337 smart account support added, users can now receive assets to smart accounts on all supported EVM chains. 
• Partial fill handling on EVM: Orders within ±3% variance auto-adjust destination amounts and proceed; in cases of variance above ±3% an instant refund is triggered automatically. No more stuck funds.
• Estimated completion times are now included in all quote API responses. 
• Users can now specify custom wallet addresses for refund actions on the Bitcoin chain. 

Other Cool Stuff

• That new landing page we mentioned? It's live and it's chef's kiss.
• Susruth dropped knowledge bombs about his blockchain journey on the "Block by Block" podcast. 
• Zellic gave our Sui contracts the security thumbs up, and in less than 30 days we've already processed 100+ orders. 
• Added USDC and cbBTC support on Solana.
