# Roadmap

<details>

<summary>Phase 1: Foundation &#x26; MVP Launch</summary>

* **MVP Release**
  * [x] Wallet integration with Web3 providers and social login via Web3Auth.
  * [x] User dashboard to initiate transfers, view history, and track balances in fiat equivalents.
  * [x] Gasless payment setup: relayer node network funded from protocol’s initial pool.
* **Secure Backend Layer**
  * [x] Backend APIs for session handling, activity logs, and rate-limiting (all logs anonymized to preserve privacy).
  * [x] Integration with IPFS for decentralized storage of non-sensitive metadata.

**$NUM Token & Ecosystem Bootstrapping**

**Community & Brand Building**

* Launch Twitter, Telegram, and official website with analytics tracker for visitor growth.
* Publish whitepaper and technical one-pager.

* Governance via xNUM → Token holders guide product roadmap, integrations, and treasury strategy.

#### &#x20;Analytics & Reporting

* Business Dashboard → Real-time data on revenue, token burns, growth metrics.<br>
* Advanced Reporting → Transaction metadata tagging, cash flow projections, and custom reports.<br>
* Team/DAO Insights → Tools for treasury managers to forecast and plan.<br>

&#x20;Ecosystem & Developer Growth

* Open SDKs → Allow builders to plug Numpay into wallets, marketplaces, and dApps.<br>
* Ecosystem Grants → Fund integrations, plugins, and business use cases.<br>
* Strategic Partnerships → With wallets, DAOs, L2s, and commerce platforms.<br>

#### Ongoing Initiatives

Marketing & Community

* Partnerships with KOLs, newsletters, and influencers in payments, consumer apps, and SocialFi.

Education & Transparency

* Open monthly transparency reports on revenue, burns, and growth.<br>
* Numpay Academy → Hub for onboarding businesses, creators, and developers.<br>

Long-Term Innovation
