Roadmap

PWM is being built in public. This page tracks where we are and what comes next.

Currently: Testnet — Genesis Phase

The protocol is live on Base Sepolia. Genesis principles are being registered. Mainnet launch follows successful testnet validation.

Phase 0 — Foundation

Complete

Protocol design, core primitives, and trust architecture.

✓ CoreSpec / Judge / OperatorGraph / RunBundle / Certificate / Registry

✓ 172 imaging modalities catalogued

✓ 886 baseline algorithms catalogued

✓ L1 / L2 / L3 artifact hierarchy locked

✓ Smart contracts deployed to Base Sepolia

✓ Multi-chain explorer (Base + Eth Sepolia)

In progress

Founding team builds the reference implementation. Everything 100% free.

✓ Platform live at physicsworldmodel.org

✓ Explorer at explorer.pwm.platformai.org

✓ Wallet connect (SIWE, Coinbase, Web3Auth)

✓ Benchmark leaderboards (CASSI, CACTI, MRI, CT…)

→ 500 genesis L1 principles registration

→ L2 Spec pages

→ Benchmark-first homepage

→ Mining dashboard

NumFOCUS Phase — 100% free

No token required to use any platform feature. Miners earn PWM via testnet draws. PWM is a fiscally sponsored project of NumFOCUS.

Upcoming

After testnet validation. Base mainnet deployment, open token economy.

○ Contracts on Base mainnet

○ PWM token live — draws settle with real value

○ Open contributor onboarding

○ 80,000 PWM explorer bounty opens

○ Testnet archive at testnet-explorer.*

○ Gas sponsorship / paymaster (optional)

Future

External contributors, third-party explorers, and academic partnerships.

○ NumFOCUS project submission

○ Third-party explorer ecosystem

○ AI4Science operator integrations

○ R21 / academic grant integrations

○ Cross-domain verifier network

○ Multi-institution governance
