Roadmap

In this section, an ambitious Roadmap is presented for the sustained growth of the Warpswap ecosystem which aims to position Warpswap as the leading decentralized exchange on EVM-based chains. All goals on this Roadmap contribute towards one of the three Warpswap key growth pillars, which are:

Security: a prime requisite for growth, the security of all smart contracts, bots and applications involved in the Warpswap ecosystem is an absolute necessity to ensure the community's backing and trust. As utter security of customer funds and fully reliable pricing is of the highest essence, tools such as cyclical third-party auditing and developer summits shall be employed. As such, all goals marked red are designed to contribute to this essential pillar by increasing the technical security of the ecosystem upon completion.
Integration: the Warpswap ecosystem is much more than just code on the blockchain. As a novel and superior exchange, the project's utility needs to be made ubiqitous by promoting the use of the Warpswap Protocol in existing or new applications. Some examples of such applications are Telegram trading bots, charting tools and third-party websites. All goals marked green are designed to raise awareness among both veteran and upcoming players in the market about the drastic benefits of building their applications with support for the Warpswap Protocol and the ease with which this can be achieved.
Community: an ecosystem is just as strong as its community. With the community as the backbone and with a team of volunteers and developers that is easily reachable, the project's growth is intended to be driven by decentralization. By taking lessons from community members' remarks and by proactively sourcing volunteers from the community's core, Warpswap's philosophy is to be an exchange of the traders, for the traders. All goals marked purple serve to enlarge the Warpswap community and/or to enhance the impact of the community on its future.

As a tightly-knit group of professional developers, designers, traders and above all friends, we as the Warpswap team bind ourselves to a timely and proper execution of the Roadmap and its timelines as laid out below, which is considered realistic.

This Roadmap shall consist of three rough Phases. Should any goal be attained faster in practice than indicated here, the team will move a goal from the next Phase closer, if possible. Any proposed changes to this Roadmap shall be communicated in a timely fashion and discussed with the community on prior notice.

Phase 1: Initiation

CertiK Audit: the code of all involved smart contracts shall be audited by CertiK and the Warpswap team shall remediate eventual findings and publish the final audit report.
Full Technical Publication: the code of all involved smart contracts shall be verified on Etherscan, added to a public Github repository and a technical whitepaper describing all technicalities shall likewise be made public. Note that this shall happen upon the completion of the audit.
Suite Release: the two official bots from the Warpswap Suite, namely the Warpswap Buybot and the Warpswap Buy Tracker, shall be released to ensure easy access to the Warpswap Protocol.
Application Partnerships: to kick off integration efforts, the Warpswap team shall reach out to teams and developers of major applications with the intent of aiding them to set up support for the Warpswap Protocol. Simultaneously, all technical team members will be readily available to assist any volunteering developers to make their applications compatible with Warpswap.
Marketing Kickoff: wide-scale marketing efforts shall commence immediately following the project's launch and will target a variety of different channels, including but not limited to Telegram call channels, YouTubers and brand ambassadors.
Volunteer Program: active community members which feel the engagement to help improve the Warpswap ecosystem in any possible way shall be invited to become project volunteers. Their tasks shall include, among others, moderating chats, assisting in events and providing information to new users.
Metrics Tracking: since the very start of the project, metrics and statistics regarding the Warpswap Protocol's usage will be kept track of by the team. While some of these will be released to the public to showcase the router's growth, others will be kept hidden until the scheduled release of the $WARP airdrop which will be based upon these metrics. Examples of metrics which will definitely be relevant for the airdrop are the trading volume, the amount of liquidity provided and the most successful launch performed by a user on Warpswap.

Phase 2: Growth

Bug Bounty: rewards shall be made available for all developers who will be able to demonstrate any kind of errors in the published and audited code of the Warpswap smart contracts.
Developer Summit: the most active developers among application builders and community members shall be invited to a joint virtual Warpswap summit which will aim at discussing Warpswap's future. This shall be an event where developers can share their experiences handling the Warpswap Protocol, engage in discussion with the core technical team and propose desired changes to the project.
Suite Outsourcing: suitable partners which produced a Warpswap-compatible buybot and/or buytracker shall receive official endorsement to promote their bots while the existing Warpswap Suite shall be deprecated and eventually discontinued, thus allowing the team to focus on core issues.
Integration Maturing: the core technical team shall be committed during this phase to assist any developers building new complex Warpswap-compatible applications or switching existing ones to use the Warpswap Protocol, providing live assistance where needed. The aim of this goal is to see token contracts, lending protocols and market makers find their way to Warpswap.
Community Events: as marketing efforts shall intensify, more attention will be given to community events such as voicechats or live AMAs, both to strengthen the existing community and to guide newcomers. These events shall be co-hosted by the core team and the volunteers. At the same time, marketing efforts shall be more focused on getting large application developers to switch existing infrastructure to that of Warpswap.
$WARP Token Launch: at this stage, the official $WARP token shall be launched which will enable investors to express their support for the Warpswap ecosystem. Set to offer additional benefits to holders, the token will grant its users voting rights in the Warpswap DAO as well as shares of the protocol-wide revenue. Both these features are set to be released in Phase 3.
$WARP Token Airdrop: following a successful token launch, users entitled to an airdrop within phases 1-2 shall receive a significant airdrop of the $WARP token, underscoring the desire to get these users involved in crucial decisions and to give back to these users through revenue sharing. Note that this airdrop will not be random, instead users will be chosen based on factors such as trading activity and the amount of liquidity added on Warpswap.

Phase 3: Ambition

Broad Audit: following the successful launch of the $WARP token and the sustained growth of the ecosystem, a new audit will be planned aimed to assess the state of the whole ecosystem, including the token, the smart contracts and relevant applications. The results of this audit shall be made public and any findings shall be swiftly remediated.
Technical Research: in this phase, resources will be allocated to attracting developers or paying volunteers to conduct further research into the way swaps are conducted on EVM-based chains and possibly beyond, with the goal of enhancing the way the Warpswap Protocol is designed to work.
Major Partnerships: to foster the integration of Warpswap across existing infrastructure, key players from the industry will be approached to discuss how to best integrate the Warpswap protocol into their applications, leveraging the continued success of the project up to this point.
DAO + Revenue Sharing: after the airdrop of $WARP, two utility features will be enabled for holders of this token: DAO voting rights and protocol-wide revenue sharing. In particular, the creation of the Warpswap DAO will mark a new era for the ecosystem, one where token holders can directly vote and steer the direction of the project going forward. More details on the DAO and the precise allocation of revenue to token holders will be made available at the start of this phase.
CEX Listings: throughout this phase and following the activation of , it is assumed that the $WARP token will start to get listed on numerous minor and major exchanges. The core team shall actively seek out opportunities to secure listings as they arise.

During/following this phase, the Roadmap shall be replaced by proposals initiated and approved by the Warpswap DAO, with the core team focusing more on further research and development as the project matures.
