Purpose:
Juno Network is currently at a critical juncture, facing significant challenges. At present, there is no dedicated team responsible for maintaining and optimizing the blockchain infrastructure to ensure its stability, scalability, and efficiency. Additionally, no substantial development or other ecosystem activities are underway. To address these issues and establish a sustainable path forward, we propose a roadmap for the network, covering all of 2025. This proposal provides a general overview of Juno’s future direction, but each item will be voted on independently, with its own budget attached. This proposal does not approve any specific budget yet.
The proposed roadmap is intended to serve as a "bridge" phase, with the ultimate goal of transitioning the network back to a completely decentralized organizational structure. This transition could occur in 2026, earlier, or later, depending on unpredictable factors.
- Ensure the network is updated and maintained to guarantee stability, scalability, and efficiency.
- Increase network activity and community engagement.
- Establish the foundation for collaboration with other projects within and outside the Interchain ecosystem.
- Expand the user base, including both developers and end-users.
- Improve communication about new developments on Juno and ensure comprehensive coverage of released features through popular marketing initiatives.
- Implement adequate checks and balances for teams working on the network.
- Ensure the network’s long-term sustainability with a diversified treasury and incentives.
- Appoint a core team: Establish a team to upgrade the network to SDK v50 and maintain it. (See Proposal 2)
- Reduce infrastructure costs: Minimize the network’s intrinsic costs and simplify validator coordination by reducing the validator set. (See Proposal 3)
- Budget for Community-Owned dApps: Approve a budget to build "Juno Portal," a dApp featuring a DEX, token launchpad, OTC desk, and more. (See Proposal 4)
- Budget for Community Activities: Approve funding for community activities, such as bounty programs, ambassador programs, ideathons, and more. (See Proposal 5)
- Implement the proposals approved in Q1.
- Budget for Developer Ecosystem Growth: Approve funding to develop new tools for building on Juno, such as an AI agent framework, mobile app templates, and low-code UIs, while leveraging Juno’s custom modules.
- Appoint a BD team: Establish a business development team to represent the network.
- New delegation program: Set up a delegation program to incentivize not only infrastructure but also app development and community engagement.
- Budget for Liquidity: Approve funding to enhance $JUNO liquidity across decentralized and centralized exchanges.
- Treasury diversification: Approve a diversified treasury strategy, including OTC trades, automated swaps, and fee collection.
- Adopt a data availability layer: Collaborate with a data availability (DA) layer to improve network reach and performance.
- A quarterly report on chain activity will be published to track the network’s progress.
- Monthly community calls and/or Twitter Spaces will be held to discuss next steps and share development updates.
- Periodic feedback forms will be provided to the community to collect suggestions and feedback on completed work.
