TTL-Aware Automated Archival Service - Roadmap

🎯 Project Vision

Build a comprehensive, blockchain-verified archival service that automatically manages data retention with TTL policies while providing immutable audit trails on the Stellar network.

📅 Development Phases

🏗️ Phase 1: Foundation (Current - Scaffolded)

Status: ✅ Complete

✅ Completed
