## Key Features of the New Version
### Multiple Coordinators
With the new version, RoboSats introduces the concept of coordinators or hosts. Coordinators will now compete to provide users with the best fees, support, uptime and reliability and overall user experience.

Always exercise caution and make sure to understand the potential risks before engaging with any coordinator. Research them by: exploring their coordinator profile in the RoboSats app, reading about them in their website and social media, asking other users about their experience, etc.
