Roadmap

This project is under active development. Over the next two months, our primary objective is to finalize and audit the first version of the stack. This means every component — from L1 syncing to L2 bridging and prover integration — must meet stability, performance, and security standards.

The roadmap below outlines the remaining work required to achieve this milestone, organized into three major areas: L2, DevOps & Performance, and L1.

L2 Roadmap

FeatureDescriptionStatus
Native BridgeSecure and trust-minimized ERC-20 bridge between Ethereum L1 and L2 using canonical messaging and smart contracts.In Progress
Based RollupLaunch the rollup as a based permissionless rollup. Leverages Ethereum for sequencing and DA. For more information check ethrex roadmap for becoming basedIn Progress
Aligned IntegrationOptimize integration with Aligned’s aggregation mode.In Progress
Risc0 SupportIntegrate RISC Zero as an alternative zkVM to SP1, enabling configurable proving backends.In Progress
Battle-Test the ProverEnsure the prover (e.g., SP1, Risc0) is robust, correct, and performant under production-level conditions.In Progress
One-Click L2 DeploymentDeploy a fully operational rollup with a single command. Includes TDX, Prover, integrated Grafana metrics, alerting system, block explorer, bridge hub, backups and default configuration for rapid developer spin-up.In Progress
Shared BridgeDirect bridging between multiple L2s to improve UX and avoid L1 costs.Planned
Custom Native TokenDefine a native token (non-ETH) for gas, staking, incentives, and governance. Fully integrated into fee mechanics and bridging.Planned
Validiums & DACsEnhance Validium mode with Data Availability Committees.Planned
Gas & FeesSet up a custom fee model to price deposits or any forced-included transaction, including data availability costs.Planned

DevOps & Performance

InitiativeDescriptionStatus
Performance BenchmarkingContinuous ggas/s measurement, client comparison, and reproducible load tests.In Progress
DB OptimizationsSnapshots, background trie commits, parallel Merkle root calculation, and exploratory DB design.In Progress
EVM ProfilingIdentify and optimize execution bottlenecks in the VM.In Progress
Deployment & Dev ExperienceOne-command L2 launch, localnet spam testing, and L1 syncing on any network.In Progress

L1 Roadmap

FeatureDescriptionStatus
P2P ImprovementsUse spawned to improve peer discovery, sync reliability, and connection handling.In Progress
Chain SyncingVerify the execution of all blocks across all chains. For Proof-of-Stake (PoS) chains (Holesky, Hoodi), verify all blocks since genesis. For chains with a pre-Merge genesis (Sepolia, Mainnet), verify all blocks after the Merge.In Progress
Snap SyncImprove Snap Sync implementation to make it more reliable and efficient.Planned
Client StabilityIncrease client resilience to adverse scenarios and network disruptions. Improve observability and logging.Planned
