Golem Network Unveils Yagna v0.16.0 with New Deposit Features

Golem
Network
has
officially
launched
Yagna
v0.16.0,
introducing
a
range
of
new
features
and
improvements,
according
to
the

official
announcement.

New
Payment
Method:
Deposits

One
of
the
most
significant
updates
in
Yagna
v0.16.0
is
the
introduction
of
a
new
payment
method:
deposits.
This
feature
differentiates
between
end-users,
who
use
and
pay
for
services
on
Golem,
and
requestors
(also
known
as
service
owners),
who
operate
and
maintain
these
services
via
Yagna.
The
new
payment
system
allows
end-users
to
pay
providers
through
a
smart
contract,
eliminating
the
need
for
direct
transactions
with
the
requestor’s
wallet.
Additionally,
the
system
offers
revenue
opportunities
by
allowing
optional
service
fees,
enabling
service
owners/requestors
to
create
profitable
services
on
the
Golem
Network.

To
utilize
the
deposits
feature,
users
need
to
upgrade
to
Yagna
v0.16.0.
An
updated
version
of
the
JS
SDK,
which
simplifies
the
integration
of
this
feature,
will
be
available
soon.

Other
Improvements
and
Updates

Alongside
the
new
payment
method,
Yagna
v0.16.0
includes
several
other
updates:

• 
  Enhanced
  Error
  Handling:
  The
  update
  introduces
  new
  actionable,
  machine-friendly
  structured
  errors
  that
  comply
  with
  RFC-9457
  standards.
  These
  changes
  are
  currently
  being
  tested
  in
  the
  Allocation
  Creation
  REST
  API
  Endpoint.
• 
  Minor
  CLI
  Enhancements:
  Several
  minor
  fixes
  have
  been
  implemented
  in
  the
  command
  line
  interface
  (CLI)
  to
  enhance
  user
  experience.
