$ARC Roadmap

1. Phase 1 · Q1 2026Shipped

   Foundation

   A real hiring marketplace before a single token promise.

   • Marketplace core: jobs, applications, contracts, dashboards
   • Solana wallet identity with signed sessions (Phantom, Solflare, Backpack)
   • Worker and employer profiles, skills, avatars and social links
   • Admin portal: review queue, job editing, disputes, audit log
   • Terms, Privacy and Disputes & Refunds policies
2. Phase 2 · Q2 2026Shipped

   $ARC goes live on Solana

   The token becomes the settlement asset of the network.

   • $ARC deployed on Solana with a public, copyable contract address
   • Live price, market cap and 24h data from Jupiter with DexScreener fallback
   • Price oracle hardening: median reconciliation, retries, safety stop on disagreement
   • In-app buy flow with the contract pre-loaded on Jupiter
   • USD-priced work settled in $ARC at the live rate
3. Phase 3 · Q2 2026Shipped

   Escrow and verifiable payouts

   Money that actually moves, provable on-chain.

   • Treasury escrow: employers deposit before a job or bounty goes live
   • Deposit countdowns, on-chain status checks and withdrawals
   • Admin payout approval queue before any release
   • On-chain verified $ARC payouts with a public payout history
   • 10% platform fee on jobs and bounties
4. Phase 4 · Q3 2026Shipped

   Holder utility

   Holding $ARC changes what you can earn.

   • Bounty board: post, submit, verify, select winners, pay on-chain
   • 50% retention rule tracked from the on-chain payout ledger
   • Holder / not-holding status shown everywhere, with priority matching
   • Holder onboarding, retention deposits and automatic redemption
   • Gated entry: follow the project on X and Telegram before applying
5. Phase 5 · Q3 2026 — nowIn progress

   Community and proof of earnings

   Make the earnings visible so the network markets itself.

   • ARC Points referrals with a live leaderboard
   • Live hire and bounty-win feed, streaming in real time
   • Shareable PNL cards and one-click posts to X
   • Earners leaderboard from settled on-chain payouts
   • Public token roadmap page (this page)
   • Verified employer program and first paying external projects
   • Liquidity deepening and locked LP proof published
6. Phase 6 · Q4 2026Planned

   Token credibility

   Get $ARC indexed, audited and legible to outsiders.

   • CoinGecko listing submission and approval
   • CoinMarketCap listing submission and approval
   • Public tokenomics paper: supply, emissions, treasury and fee flows
   • Third-party smart-contract and treasury audit, published in full
   • Transparent treasury dashboard with monthly on-chain reporting
   • $ARC buyback from platform fees
7. Phase 7 · Q1 2027Planned

   Staking and first exchanges

   Reward the holders who kept the network liquid.

   • $ARC staking with tiered worker priority and fee discounts
   • Tier-2 centralised exchange listings (2 targets)
   • Market-maker partnership for spread and depth
   • Escrow yield: idle treasury deposits earn for the network
   • Fiat on-ramp so non-crypto employers can fund jobs
8. Phase 8 · Q2 2027Planned

   Governance and partnerships

   Hand the dials to the people holding the bag.

   • Relayed DAO: holder voting on fees, bounty categories and treasury spend
   • Protocol partnerships: launchpads, DAOs and agencies hiring through Relayed
   • Relayed mobile app for workers
   • Reputation NFTs / on-chain work credentials
   • Public API and embeddable job boards for partner projects
9. Phase 9 · Q3 2027Planned

   Scale

   $ARC as the default settlement token for digital work.

   • Tier-1 centralised exchange listing
   • Multi-chain payout rails beyond Solana
   • 10,000 paid workers and $1M+ settled through escrow
   • Regional hiring hubs and localised onboarding
   • Long-term emissions handover to DAO control

Dates are targets, not guarantees. Exchange and data-aggregator listings depend on third-party review and are never certain.
