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 ~3,750 TPS peak confirmed on-chain.

The four phases

  1. 1

    Phase 1 — Public Testnet

    2026 H2 · current

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

    4 / 7 · 57%
    • 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
  2. 2

    Phase 2 — Incentivized Testnet

    2026 Q4 – 2027 Q1

    Goal: prove it works with strangers running validators.

    0 / 6 · 0%
    • 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
  3. 3

    Phase 3 — Security & Economics

    2027 Q1–Q2

    Goal: earn the right to hold real value.

    0 / 5 · 0%
    • 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
  4. 4

    Phase 4 — Mainnet Launch

    2027

    Goal: real, permissionless, value-bearing network.

    0 / 5 · 0%
    • 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

01

Sustained throughput

Peak is ~3,750 TPS; sustaining it needs the bulk-transaction transport path and more than one RPC endpoint.

02

Single-node liveness

The network must not stall when one validator restarts; deterministic leader failover is in progress.

03

Independent audit

No mainnet before a third-party security audit passes.

04

Economics

Token supply, emission, and governance are not yet final.

05

Decentralization

Mainnet requires a real, distributed validator set, not a small operator-run cluster.
