Roadmap: Next Steps for Scintilla

Scintilla is committed to continuous improvement and expansion of its blockchain ecosystem. Below is a concise summary of the upcoming features slated for implementation, with no particular order or time (as this depends on the community governance proposals and funding decisions after launch):

Bridge & Swap Application

  • Implementation of a Trustless Bridge: To facilitate secure asset transfers between Scintilla and other major blockchain networks, including Ethereum, Cosmos, and Stellar.
  • Swap Mechanism Integration: Introduction of a decentralized exchange functionality within the bridge to enable seamless asset conversions.
  • Validator-Managed Liquidity Pools: Establishing a system where validators can contribute to the bridge's liquidity and earn a share of the transaction fees.
  • Regulatory Compliant Trading: Integration with the Identity Module to support compliant trading of regulated securities and real-world assets.

LEX Module

  • Introduction of the LEX Protocol: An extension to the Liquidity Module, focusing on lending and borrowing services within the Scintilla Network.
  • Yield Generation for Lenders: Enabling users to earn interest by supplying liquidity to the LEX pool.
  • Collateralized Loans Against RWAs: Facilitating the creation of loan products backed by real-world assets, thus promoting the influx of external capital into the network.

Liquidity Module

  • Expanded Liquidity Management Tools: Rollout of advanced features for validators and users to better manage and allocate liquidity within the network.
  • Inter-Blockchain Communication (IBC) Integration: Seamless connection with the IBC protocol to enhance cross-chain liquidity flows.
  • Staking Options for Non-Validators: Providing options for non-validator users to stake their assets and contribute to network liquidity.

Smart Contract Module

  • Full EVM Compatibility: Ensuring complete support for Ethereum smart contracts, allowing for easy porting and deployment on Scintilla.
  • Smart Contract Developer Toolkit: Release of an updated SDK with improved documentation and tutorials to aid developers in creating and testing smart contracts.

Smart Data Module

  • Launch of the Smart Data Store: Deployment of a decentralized data storage solution integrated with Scintilla's blockchain modules.
  • Trigger-Based Execution: Implementation of data change triggers to activate corresponding smart contracts or scripts.

Smart Scripts Module

  • Server-Side JavaScript Execution: Introduction of a secure environment for executing JavaScript-based smart scripts.
  • Pre-Paid Script Execution: Allowing users to pre-fund script executions, enabling delayed or event-triggered runs.
  • Isolated Execution Environments: Creating sandboxed environments for each script to ensure network safety and data integrity.

IBC Integration

  • Native IBC Support: Building direct IBC connections to enable interoperability with other IBC-enabled blockchains in the Cosmos network.
  • Cross-Chain Asset Movement: Simplifying the transfer of assets across heterogeneous blockchain networks.
  • Enhanced DeFi Capabilities: Broadening the potential for decentralized finance applications by connecting with larger liquidity pools and markets.

RWA Dashboard

  • User-Friendly RWA Management Interface: Designing an intuitive dashboard for users to issue, track, and interact with real-world asset tokens.
  • Compliance Frameworks for RWAs: Embedding regulatory compliance checks within the RWA lifecycle management process.
  • External Chain Interactivity: Empowering users to leverage RWA tokens across various external blockchain ecosystems, such as Ethereum and Stellar.
