Say Hello to $SUMR: The token that powers DeFi’s best AI-powered yield optimizer 👋

Key Dates to Remember
📅 February 11th: Lazy Summer Protocol goes live
📅 July 1st: $SUMR transferability will be possible by Governance vote.
Why Non-Transferable Matters
Until July 1st, $SUMR tokens can’t be traded or sold. This ensures a focus on building the protocol and prevents early dumping, creating a committed base of long-term believers.

The Road Ahead
The Lazy Summer Protocol launches on Base, Arbitrum, and Mainnet with ETH, USDC, and USDT vaults. Plus, the current app transitions to pro.summer.fi, offering advanced features for experienced users.
