Sequence

Roadmap

Nine stages, and the project is at the third. The stages after security exist to make it difficult to skip them.

Current position: Stage 3. Specification is approved for V1 implementation and the whitepaper is published. Solana program source (cgw-vesting, cgw-rewards) and the wallet-identity backend are written but not yet compiled or tested against a real toolchain. No code has been deployed to any Solana cluster and no audit has begun. Stage 8 is not authorised.

What has to be true before each jump

Before devnet

  • Both programs implemented and passing an adversarial local-validator suite
  • Tokenomics approved rather than merely modelled
  • Anti-Sybil design reviewed against the Helium precedent
  • Rewards epoch and Merkle publication pipeline working end to end

Before mainnet

  • External audit completed, remediated and published in full
  • Legal review by qualified counsel, with the MiCA questions resolved
  • Treasury multisig live with real, independent signers
  • Genesis ceremony rehearsed on devnet and documented step by step
  • Explicit written approval to proceed
