QUANTARA • QUANTUM-RESISTANT L1
Quantara roadmap
From Elite Devnet-0 to public testnet and mainnet — how we roll out the chain in deliberate, battle-tested stages.
Roadmap
Three stages, one security story
Quantara’s rollout is deliberately phased: Elite Devnet-0 for core protocol, Public Testnet for ecosystem stress tests, and Mainnet for production capital.
We treat Devnet-0 as the place where we break things on purpose: runtime upgrades, validator failover, tooling glitches, incident drills. Public testnet is where wallets, infra, and apps push the network to its limits. Mainnet is where those lessons harden into a long-term settlement layer.
Each stage uses the same core token configuration — QTR / 12 decimals / SS58=73 — plus the same consensus stack and RPC surface. That means work you do on test networks translates cleanly when we flip the switch on mainnet.
This roadmap is intentionally high-level. The detailed runbooks, incident guides, and upgrade plans live in the docs alongside the chain-specs, node, and runtime code.
Devnet-0 is online and used to harden validators, tooling, and ops.
Canonical chain properties across all stages.

Stages
Devnet-0 → Public Testnet → Mainnet
How each stage builds on the previous one — and what we’re optimizing for at every step.
Internal+external validator cohort focused on proving the core protocol and tooling under real load.
Devnet-0 Internal Bring-Up
Core primitives, tooling, and internal Devnet-0 networks used to battle-test Quantara’s foundation.
Target: Oct 31, 2025 • Completed
Elite Devnet-0 (Public Validators)
Hand-picked validators and founding builders secure the first public Quantara Devnet-0 with 6-second blocks.
Target: TBD • In progress
Open, incentivized testnet for wallets, infra providers, and app teams ahead of mainnet.
Incentivized Public Testnet
Open, incentivized testnet with faucets, explorer, app store pilots, and community-driven stress tests.
Target: TBD • Planned
App Store & DEX Pilots
Early dApps, liquidity pools, and app-store modules deploy to the Quantara public testnet.
Target: TBD • Planned
Production Quantara network with hardened validators, upgraded cryptography, and real QTR at stake.
Quantara Mainnet Launch
Production Quantara mainnet with hardened validators, upgraded cryptography, and live QTR ecosystem.
Target: Jan 15, 2026 • Planned
Post-Quantum Upgrade Path
Progressive rollout of post-quantum signature schemes and validator key upgrades as standards stabilize.
Target: TBD • Planned

Coordination
How to plug into the roadmap
Whether you’re a validator, infra partner, or app team, there’s a way to line up your work with each stage.
Devnet-0 is where we work closely with a small validator cohort and a handful of infra partners. Public testnet is where we open the doors to more wallets, explorers, node providers, and app teams. Mainnet is where everything converges.
If you want to align your roadmap with ours — whether that’s running validators, integrating QTR, or shipping an app — the best place to start is the docs and the Devnet-0 validator intake form.
As we approach mainnet, we’ll publish more detailed timelines about audits, token generation events, and long-term governance structure.
Roadmaps only matter if they line up with what you're building. If you're planning around Devnet-0, public testnet, or mainnet, we're happy to coordinate timelines privately so you're not surprised by resets or upgrades.
