Roadmap

Kodo's ambitious journey into the future

As a native public good for Taiko, Kodo is dedicated to providing the best DeFi experience for its users. The development roadmap of Kodo is deeply associated with the long-term success of Taiko.

Q1, 2024

• Core Features Development

  • Support for ve(3, 3) foundational functionalities, including Stable & Volatile Pools, veNFT, Gauge Voting, and Bribes.

Q2 2024 (Concurrent with Taiko Mainnet Launch)

• Kodo v1 Launch

• Community-Driven Token Launch

  • Transparent and equitable token distribution process, community-involved governance.

  • Tokens allocated to the Taiko community for joint governance of Kodo; establishment of Drum Guild to fund public goods within the ecosystem.

  • Integration of an Emergency Council post-launch with multiple Taiko community members to ensure protocol fund safety

Q3-Q4 2024

• Enhanced User Experience

  • Streamline partner onboarding process, improve in-app prompts, expand wallet integrations, and introduce a clear protocol data dashboard.

• Drum Guild Community Funding

  • Finalize and publicize detailed funding plans to foster community-driven ecosystem development.

Feature Rollouts in 2025

Q1 - Q2 2025

• veKODO Relay

  • A yield optimizer providing veKODO voting custodianship. Users can delegate their veKODO to the optimizer, which efficiently identifies the best voting strategies to passively enhance returns.

Q3 - Q4 2025

• DAO Governance

  • Introduction of smart contracts and user interfaces for DAO governance of Kodo and Drum Guild.

• Advanced Liquidity Solutions

  • While initially supporting only Uni v2 pairs to simplify user adoption, Kodo will introduce more sophisticated trading pairs to optimize liquidity provider capital utilization, such as Uni v3 concentrated liquidity pools and multi-token pools (a weighted mix of up to 8 tokens in a single pool).

• Protocol Optimization

  • Enhancements for greater efficiency and improved user experience, such as auto-maximizing veKODO locked period functionalities.

Long-Term Initiatives (One Year and Beyond)

• Exploration with Taiko's Booster Rollup

  • As a native liquidity aggregator on Taiko, Kodo will stay updated with the developments of Taiko's Based Boosted Rollup (BBR) and aims to be among the first to utilize this technology upon its rollout.
