Getting Started
Product Roadmap
The phased development and deployment roadmap for the NordStern platform.
Development Phases
Our roadmap is structured in phases to ensure a smooth, stable, and compliant transition from local sandboxes to a production-grade multi-anchor ecosystem.
Phase 1: Core Integration Sandbox (Current)
We have established the technical foundation with simulated banking and verification loops to validate the core architecture:
- Stellar Protocol Support: Live service discovery and authentication flows running on the Testnet.
- On-Ramp Flow: End-to-end token minting triggered by simulated payment confirmations.
- Off-Ramp Flow: On-chain transaction detection and tracking.
- Isolated Workspace Provisioning: Automated container deployment for testing anchors.
Phase 2: Live Integration & Adapters
We are replacing simulated loops with production-grade integrations hidden behind swappable interfaces:
- Identity Verification: Production integration with KYC partners (like HyperVerge or Signzy) for automated customer verification.
- Fiat-In (Deposits): Active payment collection gateways (Razorpay, UPI intent, and dynamic QR code generation).
- Fiat-Out (Payouts): Real-time automated bank disbursements via payouts API providers (like Cashfree or RazorpayX).
- Security Auditing: HMAC signature verification for webhook channels.
Phase 3: Operator Dashboard Productization
We are consolidating operator and treasury control surfaces into a unified dashboard:
- Float Monitoring: Real-time visibility of token reserves, liquidity thresholds, and network fee parameters.
- Compliance Management: Operator workflows to approve/reject identity submissions and audit compliance cases.
- Dynamic Fee Management: Configuration panel to modify fixed and percentage-based transaction spreads.
Phase 4: Multi-Tenant Platform Escalation
Transitioning the backend to host dozens of independent white-label anchors:
- Dynamic Provisioning: Automated domain mapping, dedicated database schema generation, and automated key generation for new tenants.
- Cross-Tenant Isolation: Complete database and runtime scoping per anchor.
- Aggregated Directory: A registry service for quote and route queries across all active anchors.
Phase 5: Production Go-Live & Hardening
Preparing the infrastructure for mainnet transactions and enterprise reliability:
- Mainnet Launch: Swapping endpoints from blockchain sandboxes to live mainnet rails.
- Enterprise Kubernetes Setup: Deploying core services via EKS/Helm with automated scaling and backups.
- Observability & Alerting: Active metrics monitoring, system tracing, and status alerts for operators.
