Roadmap

Building the decentralized
compute layer

LinqProtocol is evolving rapidly. Here's where we are and where we're going.

Alpha Release - v0.01

Where we are today

LinqProtocol is live and running production workloads.

Live Now

  • 50+ production-ready templates with one-click deployments
  • WalletConnect integration (pay with LNQ)
  • On-chain escrow contracts with transparent fund management
  • On-chain provider registry with verified providers
  • Kubernetes runtime with enterprise-grade tooling
  • Virtual machines via KubeVirt with full root access
  • SSH access with key-based authentication
  • Aura Code - AI-powered development environments with live terminals, Docker sandboxes, and framework scaffolding
  • Network tunnels with custom subdomains and TLS termination
  • Prometheus metrics, Grafana dashboards, and Loki log aggregation
  • Blockchain API for programmatic deployment and escrow management
  • Helm chart support for complex multi-service stacks
  • Persistent volume storage across deployments

Current Limitations

  • Curated provider fleet (not yet open marketplace)
  • Limited template customization
  • No custom domains yet
  • No GPU support yet

These are actively being addressed in the roadmap below.

Q1-Q2 2026

Coming Soon

Custom Domains

Map your own domain names to deployment endpoints. Branded URLs instead of generated subdomains.

Auto-Renewal

Automatically replenish escrows to keep long-running services online without manual intervention.

GPU Support

GPU-accelerated instances for ML inference, image generation, and high-performance computing.

Custom Templates

Upload your own Docker images. Create private templates for your team.

Enhanced Aura Code

More framework options. Persistent file storage. Team collaboration features.

Q3-Q4 2026

Later This Year

Open Marketplace

Allow third-party providers to join the network openly. Self-serve onboarding via LinqProtocol Installer.

Provider Reputation System

On-chain reputation based on uptime, job completion, response times, and community feedback.

Provider Dashboard

Complete dashboard for providers: earnings tracking, capacity management, deployment monitoring.

Regional Routing

Deploy to specific regions for latency optimization. Filter providers by geography.

2027+

The Bigger Picture

Decentralized Control Plane

Transition orchestration logic to community-run operators. Remove single points of failure.

Layer-2 Integration

Deploy escrow contracts on Arbitrum or other L2s. Reduce gas costs.

LinqBucket

Decentralized object storage with S3-compatible API.

LinqDB

Decentralized database storage optimized for performance.

GitLinq

Decentralized Git repository service. Censorship-resistant version control.

AI Model Deployment Hub

One-click deployments for AI models. Inference endpoints. Model versioning.

IoT Workload Support

Edge compute for distributed IoT devices and latency-sensitive applications.

Custom Blockchain (LinqChain)

A blockchain optimized for high-performance decentralized computing tasks.

Process

How we decide what to build

1.
User Feedback
What are developers and providers asking for?
2.
Network Growth
What enables more usage and more providers?
3.
Technical Foundation
What makes the platform more robust?
4.
Decentralization
What moves us toward a truly decentralized network?

A note on roadmaps

This roadmap reflects our current plans and priorities. Things change:

  • • Timelines may shift based on technical challenges
  • • Priorities may adjust based on user feedback
  • • New opportunities may emerge

We'll update this page as plans evolve.
