The Garden Monthly: January 2026

TL;DR: Tron and Citrea support is live, multi-solver settlements are almost here, public audit wrapped with zero critical bugs, and security got a serious upgrade.

gm gardeners! 🌸

January was all about raising the bar on security. We shipped the biggest USDT chain by volume, wrapped up a public audit squeaky clean, and a lot more. Here's everything that went down in the garden last month.

Canon Event

The biggest network for USDT by transactions is now live on Garden. Tron hosts over $83 billion in circulating USDT; second only to Ethereum and processes more than $20 billion in daily transfers, outpacing every other chain. And now, the fastest non-custodial path from native Bitcoin to USDT runs through Garden.

Big Items

• Multi-solver settlements are entering final testing; multiple solvers will be able to fill a single order, enabling larger swaps without liquidity bottlenecks.
• Sats Terminal integration went live, letting Bitcoin maxis access liquidity without selling. Powered by Garden API, more on this here.
• Our Code4rena audit wrapped with 813 participants hunting for bugs. Guess how many critical vulnerabilities were found? zero. 
• Native swaps between BTC and Citrea are now live.

Technical Updates

Beyond shipping Tron and Citrea and supporting integrators going live, tech team spent January fortifying the garden walls:

• Hardened infrastructure security with encrypted tunnels, role-based access control, enhanced logging, and tighter endpoint management.
• Completed our first quarterly independent VAPT assessment across Garden protocol and solver infrastructure.
• Appointed a new Chief Information Security Officer, with 20+ years of experience leading security at large organizations.

Other Cool Stuff

• New stake page is live, primed and ready for multi-solver stake delegation.
• Our Dude wrote "Everyone Is Shifting to Intents" and it blew up. Literally. 
• Ripple and Litecoin testing is underway. You didn't read this here.
