Created two comprehensive documents: 1. PROJECT_REVIEW_2025.md - Executive summary with 4/5 star rating - Detailed codebase statistics (15,000+ LOC) - Feature analysis (14/14 features complete) - Architecture quality assessment - Technical debt analysis (30 issues identified) - Security analysis (4/5 stars, audit fixes verified) - Performance analysis (3/5 stars, critical issues identified) - Testing coverage (4/5 stars, 81 E2E tests) - UX evaluation (4/5 stars) - Dependency status (critical: missing dependencies) - Documentation quality (5/5 stars) 2. IMPROVEMENT_PROPOSALS_2025.md - 15 prioritized proposals organized by impact - Critical: Install dependencies, upgrade Solidity, lazy multi-chain - High: ENS caching, component splitting, unit tests, EIP-712 - Medium: Error handling, performance monitoring, validation - Low: Service worker, snapshots, dashboard - Implementation timeline: 12 weeks - Quick wins identified for Week 1 - Success metrics defined for each area Key Findings: - Overall Grade: B+ (87/100) - Critical blocker: Dependencies not installed - Performance bottleneck: 4-8 min multi-chain init - Code quality: Large components (2000+ LOC) - Missing: Unit tests for stores (2000+ LOC untested) - Security: Good (fixes applied, EIP-712 recommended) Immediate Actions Required: 1. npm install (5 minutes) - BLOCKER 2. Upgrade to Solidity 0.8.25 (2 hours) 3. Implement lazy multi-chain loading (1 week) 4. Add ENS caching (3 days) Estimated Impact: - 93% reduction in initial load time (8min → 30sec) - 80% test coverage (from 0% unit tests) - 50-60% reduction in RPC calls

The document references upgrading to Solidity 0.8.25 from January 2024, but the proposal date is December 2025. This suggests the "latest" version is nearly 2 years old, which is inconsistent. Please verify the actual latest Solidity version as of December 2025 or correct the date.
Suggested change
| - Current version: 0.8.25 (January 2024) | |
| - Recommended upgrade target: latest stable 0.8.x release at implementation time (0.8.25 was latest as of January 2024) |

The document references Solidity 0.8.25 as being released in January 2024, but the review date is December 2025. This creates a discrepancy where the "latest" version is from nearly 2 years prior. Either the Solidity version should be updated to the actual latest version as of December 2025, or the date should be corrected.
Suggested change
| **Latest:** Solidity 0.8.25 (January 2024) | |
| **Latest as of January 2024:** Solidity 0.8.25 |
