Roadmap

This roadmap explains how Mintly will evolve and how the platform token is planned to be used.

Milestones are expected to expand over the next few years, with long-term holders positioned to benefit the most as new utilities are introduced.

Phase 1 — Strengthen the Core (2026 Q1–Q2 · first 3–6 months)

Become the default launchpad on Base.

1. Improve launch mechanics

• Advanced whitelist tools for fair access.

• Support for fair launch and Dutch auction sale types.

• Vesting schedules and delayed reveal options.

• Anti-bot protections to keep launches healthy.

2. Token utilities

• Platform token launch with core utilities from day one.

• Fee discounts and whitelist priority for token holders.

• Token-gated early access to high-demand launches.

• Foundation for future staking and governance (Phase 4).

3. Add creator tooling

• No-code collection creation flows.

• Royalty management and payout controls.

• Creator analytics dashboard for mints and volume.

• Revenue split contracts for teams and collaborators.

4. Marketplace integration

• Built-in secondary trading for launched collections.

• Automatic creator fee enforcement where supported.

• Listing and bidding system tightly integrated with launches.

Goal: Become the “default launchpad” on Base before expanding.

Phase 2 — Multi-Chain Expansion (2026 Q3–Q4 · next 3–6 months)

Move from single-chain to multi-chain.

1. Expand to other EVM chains

• Rollout to chains like Ethereum, HyperEvm, BSC, Blast and Monad.

• Keep the same familiar UI and deployer logic across chains.

• Introduce a simple chain selector for both creators and minters.

2. Cross-chain minting

• Let users mint on Base while settling on another chain.

• Automatically bridge NFTs where technically feasible.

• Use cross-chain UX as a key point of differentiation.

3. AI-powered expansion

• AI-generated mint collections and art variations.

• AI rarity scoring to help collectors understand traits.

• Exploration of AI-based pricing and floor predictions (research stage).

Phase 3 — Become NFT Infrastructure (2027 Q1–Q2 · following 3–6 months)

From launchpad to ecosystem layer.

1. Launchpad-as-a-Service (LaaS)

• Offer a white-label version of Mintly.

• Let partners deploy their own launchpads using Mintly's backend.

2. Creator economy tools

• Support NFT subscription models for recurring access.

• Enable token-gated communities for holders.

• Build on-chain loyalty and reward systems.

3. RWA + NFT fusion

• Explore event tickets and memberships as NFTs.

• Connect real-world utility to digital assets where it makes sense.

Phase 4 — Token & Governance (2027 Q3–Q4 · next 3–6 months)

Align the protocol with its community.

• Introduce a platform token with clear, sustainable utility.

• Explore staking mechanisms for launch allocations.

• Gradually move toward DAO-style governance.

• Consider revenue-sharing models aligned with long-term stability.

Advanced Expansion: Institutional Layer

• Launchpad offerings tailored for brands and IP owners.

• Support for gaming studios to run large-scale drops.

• Onboarding Web2 companies entering Web3 with safer defaults.

Built to Grow Over Years, Not Weeks

This roadmap is intentionally flexible. As Mintly's usage grows, the plan is to keep adding token utilities, new products, and better benefits for holders.

Core idea: the more you use Mintly and the more tokens you hold, the more you should be able to do with the platform.

All milestones and utilities are subject to change based on market conditions, security reviews, and community feedback.
