We are excited to announce our roadmap!

https://pendulum-chain.medium.com/pendulum-roadmap-testnet-mainnet-and-beyond-9d4383f810e2

The Prototype includes:
✅ Single-node network and Stellar bridge
✅ Stellar bridge that mirrors pre-defined Stellar assets
✅ Automated market maker (AMM) written in the ink! smart contract language

Testnet alpha will include:
- Faucet for Pendulum gas tokens
- Multi-node network
- Decentralized bridge to Stellar that is able to mirror any arbitrary Stellar asset
- Docker image for easy node deployment

Testnet beta will include:
- Fully decentralized and dynamic Stellar bridge
- Governance mechanism
- Integration with the Kusama/Polkadot testnet network(s)

For a successful mainnet launch, the network must be entirely decentralized and robust. The Stellar bridge must support an arbitrary number of nodes, the network must support a certain throughput level, and the governance structures in place. The Pendulum mainnet will integrate with the Polkadot/Kusama ecosystem, which gives access to some of the most exciting opportunities in the DeFi space today.

Watch Meinhard Benn discussing AMMs and Pendulum at Stellar's Meridian Conference:

"With a generic smart contract platform like Pendulum, it is possible to build AMMs, ERC20 token support, NFT royalties, loan applications, oracles, or voting implementations.

Stellar's approach to building features like AMM into the core protocol offers higher overall stability, but also requires updates to all network nodes at every small code change"
