Public Roadmap · Updated July 2026

Road to Mainnet 2027

Honest about where the network is and what stands between today's testnet and a public, permissionless mainnet. Dates are targets, gated by security and stability results.

Where we are today (July 2026): Live multi-node BFT cluster producing and finalizing blocks, a parallel execution engine, MetaMask-native WCAHT transfers, and a live explorer and dashboard. A fork-class consensus bug in multi-transaction blocks was found and fixed this quarter, with zero state-root divergence under load and ~3,000 TPS peak confirmed on-chain.

Phase 1 — Public Testnet 2026 H2 · current

Goal: anyone can use the network and see it working.

Live multi-node consensus + finality
MetaMask-native WCAHT (balance + send)
Block explorer + network dashboard
Consensus-determinism hardening (fork bug fixed)
Public faucet + onboarding guide
Published whitepaper, docs site, and API reference
Live network status page

Phase 2 — Incentivized Testnet 2026 Q4 – 2027 Q1

Goal: prove it works with strangers running validators.

Open external validator onboarding (permissionless join)
Public bug bounty program
Sustained-throughput transport upgrade (bulk ingest, multi-endpoint)
Single-validator liveness / deterministic leader failover
Geographically distributed, long-duration soak testing
Validator rewards + slashing live on testnet

Phase 3 — Security & Economics 2027 Q1–Q2

Goal: earn the right to hold real value.

Independent third-party security audit
Finalized tokenomics: supply, emission, fees, governance
Formalized threat model sign-off + remediation
Reproducible release builds + signed binaries
Disaster-recovery + validator-set governance procedures

Phase 4 — Mainnet Launch 2027

Goal: real, permissionless, value-bearing network.

Genesis ceremony + token generation event
Permissionless validator set at target decentralization
Exchange / bridge readiness
Mainnet explorer, dashboard, and public status page
24/7 monitoring + incident response

Honest open items (the work that gates mainnet)

Sustained throughput. Peak is ~3,000 TPS; sustaining it needs the bulk-transaction transport path and more than one RPC endpoint.
Single-node liveness. The network must not stall when one validator restarts; deterministic leader failover is in progress.
Independent audit. No mainnet before a third-party security audit passes.
Economics. Token supply, emission, and governance are not yet final.
Decentralization. Mainnet requires a real, distributed validator set, not a small operator-run cluster.

Timelines are targets subject to audit and engineering outcomes. Testnet tokens carry no monetary value.
