11. What’s new
Web
● Batch Transactions: use web UI to create batches out of transactions of any type including sending
tokens, sending NFTs and interacting with dApps, and executing them altogether for gas cost
optimisation.
● Emoji avatars for Safes. Can be turned on in Experimental section of Appearance settings.
Mobile:
● On-ramping (top up): Buy crypto and top up your Safe Account. Use Apple Pay, bank transfers or
your debit and credit card to top up your Safe Account or owner keys. Available networks (Ethereum,
BNB Smart Chain, Optimism, Arbitrum, Polygon, Avalanche and Celo)
● Social login (in beta) on Gnosis Chain: Use your Gmail account or Apple ID to create an owner key for
your new 1/1 Safe Account without the need for seed phrases
● + Improved WalletConnect connectivity as well as some bug fixes

Vendor XYZ Account

17. A modular, open-source protocol addresses the following problems:
1. Fragmentation: by standardizing modules namely, Plugins, Hooks,
Function Handlers, Signature Validators etc
2. Vendor Lock-In: maintaining interoperability and portability of
accounts by being vendor and account agnostic
3. Security: Introducing Registries that ensure smart contract risk is
reduced while providing sufficient security guarantees
