Testnet update

We've been diligently working during the Alpha testnet and wanted to cover some of the items we've been focusing on. It is important to note that changing the fee structure meant optimizing and modifying both the smart contract and the UI, resulting in some delays.

Changes made include:

✅ Removal of minimum fill amount and fill fee.

✅ The requirement for the market maker to pay the fill fees for the market taker has been eliminated, easing SOR requirements. Fill fees are now paid by the order taker, eliminating the need for a minimum fill limit. Orders can now be filled for arbitrary amounts. Additionally, the partial fill limit has been removed from the advanced settings and is no longer enforced by the order book direct fill or the best available when finding the best available order for the given amount.

✅ Bug fixes for 'Best Available' slippage.

✅ A bug that previously misapplied slippage conditions when finding the best available order has been fixed. Orders should now correctly adhere to slippage tolerances.

✅ Sorting and filtering for Order tables (explore and my order).

✅ Controls for table sorting and filtering have been added to the order list tables on the Explore and Swap pages.

✅ Order book enhancements.

✅ The order book now supports both sell and buy actions for a specific token.

✅ Various minor performance enhancements have been implemented in the client.
