Phase 1: Solana SPL Token

Q4 2025 - Q1 2027

Token Standard: SPL (Solana Program Library)

During the initial phase, BTCM operates as a Solana token, benefiting from:

High Performance

• 65,000+ theoretical TPS (Solana network capacity)

• 400ms block times

• Sub-second transaction finality

Low Costs

• Average transaction fee: >$0.1

• Economic for micro-transactions and high-frequency trading

Robust Ecosystem

• Immediate integration with Solana DEX (Raydium)

• Access to Solana's DeFi protocols

• Established wallet infrastructure (Trustwallet, Solflare, Exodus)

Security

• Proof of History + Proof of Stake consensus

• Battle-tested network with 1900+ validators

• Slashing mechanisms to prevent bad actor behavior

Mainnet Preparation Activities

During the Solana phase, the team will be actively developing and testing the mainnet infrastructure:

Q4 2025 - Q1 2026:

• Mainnet architecture design and specification

• Consensus mechanism development

• Validator node software development

• Internal testnet deployment

• Security protocol implementation

Q2 2026:

• Public testnet launch

• Validator recruitment and onboarding program

• Testnet stress testing (transaction throughput, network stability)

• Bug bounty program initiation

• Community validator education workshops

Q3 2026:

• Testnet validator rewards simulation

• Performance optimization based on testnet data

• Cross-chain bridge development (Solana to BTCM mainnet)

• Smart contract layer testing

• Security audits of mainnet code

Q4 2026:

• Mainnet release candidate deployment

• Final security audits completion

• Validator node hardware requirements publication

• Migration smart contract development

• Economic model fine-tuning based on testnet results
