ROADMAP.md

Finishing up Q2

Release first public alphanet

• Tendermint deployed on k8
• bcp-demo v5 deployed with wallets, atomic swaps
• Sentry node architecture
• Monitoring and Metrics
• Testnet Faucet
• HTTPS rpc proxies
• Basic load/failure testing
• Auto-scaling sentry nodes (at least rpc)
• Documentation and support channels

Q3 Goals

Weave/bcp-demo cleanup (along with first/second public testnet?)

• Use sha512 prehash on tx before verifying signature, to allow web4 to provide ledger support
• Unify field naming src/dest or from/to as suggested by Isabella

Implement NFT for value name

• Add new extension to bcp-demo
• Support for NFT creation, ownership, and sending
• Support for atomic swap with NFT and/or fungible tokens
• Example of value name on top of NFT
• Solid test coverage
• Remove namecoin implementation to replace with value name NFT
• Deployed to mainnet

Extract Tendermint Dependences

• Standardize logging solution (based directly on go-kit?)
• Custom abci server implementation (fork or base on improvemint rewrite from Ethan)
• Fork IAVL for minimal dependencies and clean up
• Modified, fast data level using eg. badger db and read only queries for much less writes

Extra Enhancements

• Multi-message transactions (so multi-sig can enable swap)
• Groups as on-chain threshold sigs with admin function

Improve performance

• System wide benchmarks of various transactions types
• Better metrics to view processing times for various transactions
• Benchmarks/profiling of weave/bcp-demo (unit test style)
• Cache signatures for speed-up
• Optimize datastore implementations

Mainnet launch
