Dear DAO members,
Following the approval of PGP-35 l Cooper Labs Service Providing Phase IV by the DAO, here is the 2026 protocol roadmap.
This post will be used to provide monthly updates on our progress, in a constant effort to ensure transparency.
The main objective for the coming months remains the same: Grow the TVL
Note: We have deliberately provided limited information on product development from Q3 2026 onwards in order to maintain product development driven almost exclusively by revenue and deals.
