Nikos Vlastaris contributed to several core features across panther_analysis_tool and axelarnetwork repositories, focusing on cloud storage integration, configuration management, and asset handling. He extended the lookup table schema in panther_analysis_tool to support Google Cloud Storage as a data source, enabling scalable analytics workflows and secure credential management using Python and schema definition techniques. In axelarjs, he removed deprecated Blastapi endpoints from EVM chain configurations, reducing operational risk and aligning with service deprecation timelines through careful configuration management in TypeScript. Additionally, he standardized branding assets in axelar-configs by organizing SVG logos, improving asset management and deployment readiness.

September 2025: Delivered the Blastapi Endpoint Decommissioning feature for axelarjs by removing deprecated Blastapi endpoints from EVM chain configuration to eliminate reliance on services that will be unavailable due to the Blastapi shutdown. This reduces operational risk and stabilizes cross-chain workflows. Major bugs fixed: none reported this month. Overall impact: improved reliability for downstream systems, reduced maintenance burden, and alignment with deprecation timelines. Technologies/skills demonstrated: deprecation planning, configuration management, git-based change tracking, and knowledge of EVM chain configurations and Blastapi dependencies.
