We introduced it on this post several weeks ago and we are now happy to officially announce the release of our router contract on Ethereum Mainnet at this address! 🛣
The router contract allows to combine multiple actions into ONE transaction when interacting with the protocol. This enables an unlimited number of combinations, resulting in a lot of potential new features and in a significant gas cost reductions for users!
Amongst the multiple possibilities that the router enables, we have started to implement what we believe are the most useful ones. Other features will be added very shortly to Angle Apps! Here are the new apps router functionalities, and a sneak peek of the upcoming ones 👇
Before the router, users depositing collateral in the protocol for sanTokens had to perform an additional transaction to stake those tokens and earn ANGLE rewards, making it more expensive for them. Now, they can done transaction all from the same screen!
When clicking on the Deposit and Stake button, users will send their tokens, and receive sanTokens which will be staked automatically in the related contracts. They will be able to see their staked tokens from the DAO App.

New features:
Claim Interest and Stake
Claim Interest and Mint agEUR
Angle users that hold veANGLE receive interest in sanUSDC_EUR every week. Until now, they had to claim those tokens before being able to do something else. Now, they can directly stake them back into the protocol or mint agEUR in the same transaction they claim the tokens!
This improvement makes those actions cheaper, faster, and easier to do

New features:
Claim ANGLE from multiple gauges at the same time
Claim ANGLE from multiple gauges and lock them to increase your veANGLE balance
With the router, users receiving ANGLE rewards can now claim ANGLE rewards from multiple gauges at the same time. Gauges that can be claimed for in a joint transaction are all the boosted gauges (type 0) and the perpetuals (type 1). The remaining staking contracts are different and rewards still have to be claimed manually.
Additionnally, users can directly add the ANGLE claimed to their lock to increase their veANGLE balance. This will allow them to earn more interest, have a higher boost on rewards, and gain more voting power.

One of the core functionalities of the router is to allow users to interact with the protocol through any token, by adding an intermediary swap function. This swap function is routed through 1inch to find the best available rates, and converted into one of the collateral token accepted by the protocol as collateral.
This is already available in the router contract, and we are currently working on using this functionality to implement two new features within the app:
Mint agEUR from any token
Open an HA position from any token
Deposit collateral as a SLP from any token
Users will be able to mint agEUR or open a position from any token that can be routed through 1inch into one of the accepted collateral (USDC, DAI, FEI, FRAX)! This means that they will be able to use ETH, UNI, USDT, or even DOGE to mint agEUR or open a position.
The router supports permit signatures instead of approval transactions for the tokens supporting this feature.
This means that people using those tokens to interact with the protocol will not have to pay for an additional approval transaction.
Collateral with permit() supported by the router: USDC & FEI
DAI & FRAX will keep the older approval transaction flow.
As you can see, this contract unlocks a great deal of new features for Angle users! To wrap up, the main ones are:
Deposit collateral and Stake
Claim interest and Stake
Claim interest and Mint
Claim ANGLE rewards and Lock
Mint, open position, and deposit from any token
These are the features that we are implementing, but any combination of the available actions can be imagined! If you are a developer and want to build more complex interactions, you can head over to our developers doc.

Angle roadmap is full of exciting projects. You can follow the development of the protocol with the Angle Weekly Recap published here and in our Discord that you can join with the link below.
