Roadmap

Where we are, and where we're going

VoiceBan is live on-chain today. Here's what already ships, and the path ahead — built so the network can evolve through public, on-chain votes, never a reset.

Phase 0 · shipping now

✅ Live today

🎙 Seedless voice login

Create an account with no seed phrase. Unlock with your voice + Face ID / fingerprint. Keys are hardware-sealed on your device.

📣 Voice-first social

Posts, voice notes, voice comments, follows and tips — all on a live, censorship-resistant chain.

🖼 NFT marketplace

Mint image or voice NFTs, buy/sell in VBAN, with creator royalties.

✉️ Encrypted messenger

End-to-end encrypted DMs — the relay can never read them — that auto-expire after 30 days.

🏆 Leaderboards

Trending posts and a transparent view of who's staking and securing the network.

💳 Wallet + explorer

Self-custody wallet with cold-storage backups, plus a public block explorer and faucet.

Phase 1 · next

🔜 The network upgrade

One coordinated upgrade that makes the network self-evolving — after it, new features arrive without disruption.

🗳 On-chain governance

No hidden backdoor — every upgrade becomes a public, time-locked, on-chain vote. Starts with a small trusted council, opens to token holders over time.

🔗 MetaMask & Ledger staking

Stake and secure the network directly from the wallets you already use.

✳️ 3-letter usernames

Shorter, premium handles.

⚖️ Tuned economics

Near-zero fees that rise only under attack; network fees flow to a community treasury.

Phase 2 · creator economy

🎯 Reward real people, not bots

💸 Tips & free voting

Tipping puts money in creators' pockets; voting stays free and one-person-one-vote — so the charts reflect people, not spend.

🌱 Recruitment rewards

Earn from a founder-funded promotions pool for bringing real, active members — verified by activity + live voice, so bot farms earn nothing.

🎁 Activity airdrops

Free, merit-based VBAN drops to genuine contributors. No purchase, no lottery.

🔐 Get paid for your data

We never sell your data by default. Opt in and you get paid — your data, your call.

🎬 Video posts

Go beyond photos and links — upload and share video natively, stored on the network's content-addressed media layer.

Phase 3 · reach & decentralization

🌐 Wider, more open, more places

🖥 Node operator program

Run a validator, secure the network, earn rewards.

🏛 Token governance

Hand decision-making to the community as the network matures.

📱 Installable, app-store-free

A full mobile experience you install straight from the web (PWA) — no App Store or Play Store gatekeeper that could pull or block us. The whole point is that no company can switch us off.

💬 Richer messaging

Group chats, stronger privacy, and trustless contact discovery.

Roadmap items evolve as we build and as the community weighs in. Timelines are directional, not promises.
