❗ Important Notes for This Release

⚠️ Mandatory Upgrade for v2.31 and Below

This release is a required upgrade for all users on Status v2.31 and below. It includes a breaking change that limits the time range for store queries to 24 hours (🔍 More info: #3170). This change significantly improves performance when the App needs to retrieve community history beyond the 24-hour mark.

💻 MacOS Devices with Intel chips Support Dropped

To focus on the most-used platforms, we’ve ended support for macOS devices with Intel chips.
🔚 The final compatible version for these devices is v2.32.
🛑 Do NOT upgrade to v2.33 or higher on MacOS devices with Intel chips — doing so will result in app crashes due to a known bug (🔍 More info: #15730)

🆕 Release Highlights

This release expands multi-chain support with Binance Smart Chain and the Status Network Testnet, enabling users to send, receive, swap tokens, and interact with dApps. It also introduces a real-time token list, Market Center with live token data and swaps, in-app news updates, and improved visibility for community creation and voting.

🚀 New Features

• 🟡 Added Binance Smart Chain
  The user will be able to see token balance, send, bridge, swap, and interact with dApps on the Binance Smart Chain.

• 📈 Added Market Center with token lists, data, and swaps
  The user will be able to find real-time data (prices, volume, etc.) about various tokens and conveniently access and swap tokens of their interest.

• 🧪 Added Status Network Testnet chain
  The user will be able to see, receive, send tokens, and interact with dApps on the Status Network Testnet.

• ⚡ Implemented the real-time update token list
  The users will be able to see, operate, and swap tokens as soon as they appear on DEXes**.**

• 📰 Added Status News Feed in in-app Notification Center
  The user will be informed about Status app releases and other important Status news and updates.

• 🏛️ Enabling community creation to everyone by default and making voting more visible and accessible for users
  The user will know how to create a community, learn how to do it, and learn how they can make their community visible.
