Avantgarde Finance, the lead developers of the Melon protocol, have made their first release since being voted in for the role by the Melon Council DAO last fall. The release includes a protocol upgrade as well as the second version of the Melon Terminal interface which allows users to browse funds, review details on them, and invest or redeem capital in the funds. Fund managers can also create and manage funds with hardcoded policies such as the maximum number of positions, asset concentration, and whitelists for both investable assets and investors.
