Technical Roadmap
This sets out the technical milestones on the Adina Labs roadmap. Our first platform is the Decentralized Employment Marketplace, and everything below is ordered around getting it live on a non-custodial, dual-chain protocol we are prepared to put in front of an independent auditor and, in time, the public. We treat it as a live document, and when the picture changes we will explain why in the Newsroom.
What we are building
The Adina protocol is a shared set of on-chain smart contracts that every Adina Labs platform will eventually run on. Five domains make it up, the ADINA Token, a fee router, an attestation registry, staking, and escrow, deployed across two chains by design. Ethereum Layer 1 handles settlement and permanence, and Arbitrum Layer 2 handles execution and anything high-frequency. ADINA is a single ERC-20 token, paired with USDC on both chains. Every state change is a transaction the user signs themselves, and Adina Labs never holds keys or signs on anyone's behalf.
Infrastructure
The five domains are built on OpenZeppelin primitives with Hardhat and Foundry. Finishing the formal specification is the gate we clear before audit, and each domain then goes through independent security audit before any mainnet deployment. We will publish the final report in full, along with the contract addresses, ABIs, and verified source, ahead of the Fair Launch. A public testnet follows, with real exit criteria around transaction volume, uptime, and no unresolved critical findings. Mainnet and the Fair Launch IDO are targeted for March 2027, with liquidity pools opening at a combined $6 million across Ethereum and Arbitrum, weighted 70/30 toward Arbitrum.
The application layer
Candidates and employers verify their identity, build a profile, and reach matches without wallet setup blocking sign-up, with results anchored on-chain as portable attestations. The matching runs on Almega+, off-chain and with no personal data written to the chain, and the full detail follows in the Whitepaper in October 2026. Verification earns a blue badge, with KYC kept off-chain through regulated providers, and connecting a wallet stays separate from verifying identity. Wallet onboarding runs through Privy, so new users get a non-custodial embedded wallet at sign-in while Web3-native users connect their own. Platform services are priced in Credits, where one Credit equals one US dollar, and buying Credits market-buys ADINA on the public ADINA/USDC pools.
Later phases
Some capabilities are specified now and delivered later, so launch stays focused. Candidates will be able to stake ADINA to confirm specific profile claims, separate from both identity verification and the attestation registry. Escrow for hiring, gig contracts, and milestone releases activates as volume supports it. The attestation registry is built to accept zero-knowledge circuits later without breaking existing anchors. And as the ecosystem expands, ventures such as the carbon credit market reuse this same protocol rather than rebuilding settlement from scratch.
Documentation and accountability
The Technical Documentation lives at adinalabs.com/docs, with contract ABIs and an npm SDK following the audit, and the Whitepaper is targeted for October 2026. The two dates to hold onto are October 2026 for the Whitepaper and March 2027 for the Fair Launch IDO and mainnet. We will report progress against these milestones with structured updates, and when one moves we will say why. Engineering discussion is on Discord, and partnership questions go to community@adinalabs.com.
