Roadmap
Based on our predictions of the following trends, we will build the BTC ecosystem over the long term:
Asset issuance on the BTC mainnet: The BTC mainnet will see an increasing number of assets with real value.
Asset trading on the Layer 2 network: While ensuring security, we will provide an economical and efficient circulation environment.
The BTC network will become the foundation of the future value network: SatoshiNet strives to provide the most valuable construction work to achieve this goal.
Phased Achievements
We officially entered the BTC ecosystem development phase in October 2023. After more than two years of development, we have achieved the following phased goals:
SAT20 Asset Issuance Protocol (ORDX Protocol) – Development of the asset issuance protocol has be completed in the first half of 2024.
SAT20 Asset Transcending Protocol - 90% complete, final standardization in progress:
First version released in Q1 2025
Support for the Runes protocol in Q2 2025
Channel contracts, including the launch pool contract, AMM trading contract, LimitOrder trading contract, and asset translocation contract, have be launched in Q3 2025
Channel contract framework standardized and publicly released in Q4 2025, supporting developer development of various channel contracts
The first standard version of the protocol will be completed and publicly released in Q1 2026 (only the protocol itself will be made public; the source code will not be disclosed for now. Those with sufficient reputation can apply for code access).
Native Extension Network: SatoshiNet - SatoshiNet has officially launched in early August 2025 and undergone long-term iteration and optimization, evolving into the foundational network for thousands of DAPPs in the Bitcoin ecosystem.
SatSwap Market: SatSwap Market -- Trial operations has begun at the end of August 2025, with official operations planned for November 2025. ordx.market is a professional platform within the BTC ecosystem that provides a complete range of asset minting, browsing, trading, and management services. It supports all major assets in the BTC ecosystem, including both layer 1 and layer 2 networks.
SAT20 Wallet -- The plugin wallet has been released on Google's plugin market, and the app version is under development.
Building the SatoshiNet Ecosystem
We expect that by the end of 2025, SatoshiNet, our first native extension network for the BTC ecosystem, will have completed basic functional development and stabilized, entering a new phase. It's time to see what the future holds.
To put it bluntly: SatoshiNet marks the beginning of our deep involvement in the BTC ecosystem. We hope that SatoshiNet can help the BTC ecosystem compete head-on with other ecosystems. SatoshiNet leverages the following capabilities to help the BTC ecosystem compete head-on:
Assets issued on the BTC mainnet: The highest consensus, the most secure, and the most decentralized.
DIDs issued on the BTC mainnet: The highest consensus, the most secure, and the most decentralized, coupled with permissionless and permanent ownership. DIDs are the foundation for widespread adoption of crypto applications.
Economical and quick, based on security: Users control their own assets, and the mainnet provides security guarantees. This is the foundation for the ecosystem's growth and development. Expanding the network without security guarantees is a castle in the air.
A more secure smart contract framework: The channel contract framework, derived from the Lightning Network channel RSMC protocol, will provide a completely different smart contract framework from EVM smart contracts. Based on WASM, it is run by multiple nodes and verified by the entire SatoshiNet, making it more flexible and secure.
Built-in DID-based message protocol: As a decentralized network, SatoshiNet naturally supports decentralized DIDs and a DID-based message protocol, which are the foundation for the development of DAPPs.
All of this will be freely available and open-sourced in an orderly manner. Anyone can participate, unleash their imagination for the BTC ecosystem, realize everything on SatoshiNet, and reap the benefits of the long-term bull market of the BTC ecosystem.
Open Source Plan
For the sake of efficiency in early development, we will initially maintain a completely closed-source development model. We plan to gradually open up and eventually open source the entire SAT20 project. Ultimately, through community management, SAT20 will become a fully decentralized project and continue to develop the SAT20 protocol.
Through open source and permissionless collaboration, we hope to promote the widespread use of SAT20 in the Bitcoin ecosystem and contribute to its prosperity.
We welcome teams interested in Cong Network to join us in building the world of Cong.
Open Source Plan: Gradually open source modules as they mature.
