Roadmap 2024: Ecosystem evolution or what to expect next two quarters

2 months ago3 min readnews

In 2024, AirDAO is adapting its strategy to focus on robust ecosystem growth and community engagement. Our plan includes launching several fundamental components that will empower teams of builders and boost community participation. Here's what's coming up in Q2 and Q3:

AirDAO Wallet — Q2

The AirDAO mobile app now fully supports all AirDAO tokens. The latest update includes:

  • Full Wallet Functionality. Create and import wallets, send and receive tokens, and manage multiple addresses.
  • Staking Now Available. Users can stake AirDAO tokens through the app, offering a seamless and convenient staking experience.
  • Enhanced Security: FaceID, fingerprint, and passcode protection.
  • New languages. The Turkish language was added.

Future Updates:

  • Real-world AMB use cases with bridging and built-in token swaps;
  • The app will support more languages.

Previous features remain unchanged. You can receive transaction notifications, create address groups to track your portfolio, and get AMB price alerts.

Tier-1 Wallet Integration — Q2

We're excited to announce that we are integrating a Tier-1 wallet into the AirDAO ecosystem to boost our platform's security, usability, and scalability. This integration will enable users to experience the following:

  • On-Ramp Solutions: Easy access to fiat-to-crypto services, simplifying entry for new users;
  • Comprehensive Features: Integrated swaps, staking, and quest completion directly within the wallet for a streamlined user experience.
  • Access to Key DApps: Direct integration with decentralized applications that are inaccessible via MetaMask.
  • Support for Emerging Markets: Special focus on accessibility, ensuring that users in emerging markets can easily engage with our ecosystem and utilize our financial tools.

Airquest — Coming Soon in Q2

AirDAO's partner Saprolings is developing the "Airquest" platform. Users will be able to participate in: 

  • Engaging Tasks: Complete quests to earn points, qualifying fusers for airdrops of its native token;
  • Seasonal System: The task list will be regularly updated, and airdrops will follow seasonal task developments.
  • Referral System: Encourage social mining to accumulate more points and rewards.

The Star Fleet Initiative

The Star Fleet Initiative is central to our growth strategy. As part of this ambitious project, we're gearing up to launch a massive airdrop campaign for all Starfleet tokens in collaboration with Airquest, offering many exciting opportunities for our community. Here are StarFleet's innovative DeFi products that will be launched in 2024:

Kosmos — Coming Soon in Q2

Kosmos is a liquid bond marketplace that allows users to create and sell bonds for supported tokens and earn rewards in $KOS for platform participation. $KOS is a utility token that holds various functions and is used for four primary purposes:

  • Subsidizes user fees;
  • Qualifies users for engagement rewards in $AMB;
  • Staking to earn rewards in $KOS and $AMB;
  • Governance over Kosmos's treasury and operations.

Harbor — Q3

Harbor is a liquid staking platform allowing users to participate in cryptocurrency staking on AirDAO and earn rewards while still being able to use those tokens to trade, lend, and borrow.

Users who stake their $AMB on Harbor receive stAMB in return, which functions as a liquid staking derivative token, similar to other platforms. Unlike traditional liquid staking platforms, users staking $AMB on this platform will receive a hybrid reward structure in the form of $AMB, $BOND, and a new token called $HBR.

Astra DEX — Coming Soon in Q3

Astra DEX is a decentralized AMM and P2P Marketplace for users of the AirDAO ecosystem to trade via liquidity pools and direct sales. This platform is designed around a lock-and-reward model to create liquidity for users.

Unlike other DEXs, Astra pioneers single-sided liquidity pools where users provide only one currency to a capped LP. Double-sided liquidity pools are also available and are not capped but offer lower rewards. In

return, Astra will reward users with ecosystem tokens like $AMB, $BOND, $KOS, and more. Alongside the first DEX on AirDAO, Astra also launches the $AST token.

Starfleet TGE — October 2024

In October, we will launch three new tokens for Kosmos, Astra, and Harbor. With a unified offering of all three tokens, venture capital funds and the community can get exposure to the next generation of the AirDAO ecosystem with a single investment. AirDAO is raising additional capital to expand the ecosystem and user base, with the end goal of a significant increase in network usage and total value locked (TVL).

MODUS: Second Property Listing and TGE

MODUS is pioneering web3 property investment through fractionalized, tokenized real-world assets (RWAs). This aligns with AirDAO's commitment to drive network usage and support projects that resonate with our ecosystem's core values.

AirDAO Grant Framework

AirDAO is working on a major initiative to encourage innovation and growth within our ecosystem. We will reveal a comprehensive grant framework to attract and support visionary builders. We will begin reviewing and selecting promising new projects soon, providing the necessary resources and guidance to integrate into the AirDAO ecosystem. This initiative is essential in expanding our community and enhancing the development of pioneering blockchain solutions.

Sponsorships and Community Engagement

This autumn, we are proud to sponsor two ETHGlobal Hackathons in Singapore and San Francisco. These events are a part of our mission to foster innovation and community growth within the blockchain space.

Finalizing our roadmap

AirDAO aims to create the most accessible and dynamic Layer 1 blockchain in the industry. With innovative products, strategic partnerships, and a focus on community-driven growth, we are set to transform the financial landscape in 2024 and drive toward our goal of 25,000 on-chain users. Join us as we build the future of decentralized finance and empower communities worldwide!
