Mint Blockchain is a native Ethereum Layer 2 (L2) network focused on developing the NFT ecosystem and industry, aiming to drive mass adoption in the NFT space. The MintCore team is dedicated to transforming Mint Blockchain into a decentralized network centered around NFT asset services. This includes innovating the underlying protocol standards for NFT assets, facilitating NFT issuance, trading, and settlement, building a distributed storage layer for NFT asset metadata, and creating a decentralized indexing system for NFT data. Mint Blockchain aspires to be the most distinct and ecosystem-rich L2 network within the Ethereum ecosystem, offering Web3 developers a comprehensive suite of NFT development tools and infrastructure.
Recently, the MintCore development team unveiled the roadmap for the next two years, outlining plans and strategies for advancing the NFT ecosystem. This article delves into the core events of this roadmap, providing Web3 developers and users with a thorough understanding of Mint Blockchain's development goals and future vision.
October 2023: Development of Mint Blockchain begins.
February 2024: Launch of Mint Testnet.
April 2024: Mint Blockchain joins the OP Superchain as an official member and strategic partner of the Optimism Foundation in the Asian market.
May 2024: Mint Forest user base exceeds 380,000; Mint Blockchain website reaches 3.2 million monthly visits.
May 2024: Official launch of Mint Mainnet.
Q3 2024: Launch of Mint Mainnet activities and the NIP asset protocol standard library.
Q2 2025: Introduction of decentralized staking mining for the Mint Blockchain sequencer, decentralizing sequencer rewards distribution.
Q4 2025: Launch of the decentralized NFT indexer and metadata distributed storage layer, providing developers with comprehensive NFT development services.
1. Mint Mainnet Launch (Q2 2024)
The MintCore team launched the Mint Mainnet in May 2024, divided into two phases:
Dev Mainnet
The initial phase lasts approximately six weeks and focuses on building the foundational infrastructure for Mint Mainnet. This includes:
Block explorer development
RPC node services
Cross-chain bridge support
Wallet integration
Data analytics platform support
Third-party task platform integration
DID protocol support
Basic DeFi protocol support
This phase lays the groundwork for the subsequent development of the Mint Ecosystem, ensuring a robust infrastructure for developers.
Public Mainnet
Expected to launch by late June 2024, the Public Mainnet phase opens the network to the community, allowing developers and users to participate freely.
2. Mint Mainnet Events (Q3 2024)
Starting in July 2024, Mint Blockchain will host mainnet events with three primary goals:
Educating Web3 developers and users about NFTs and the Mint Blockchain ecosystem.
Establishing a foundational NFT and DeFi ecosystem on Mint Blockchain to provide liquidity for quality crypto assets.
Attracting more developers to join Mint Ecosystem, contributing to infrastructure and NFT application development.
3. NIP Asset Protocol Standard Library (Q3 2024)
The NIP asset protocol standard library, prioritized by the MintCore team, includes both common and innovative NFT asset protocol standards. This library allows developers to efficiently develop and deploy NFT assets, reducing time and costs. It is also suitable for Web2 developers.
As the Mint ecosystem grows, more innovative NFT asset protocol standards will emerge, and the NIP library will support and integrate these new standards. Mint Blockchain will incentivize developers to innovate and develop underlying standards, driving NFT asset innovation and application development.
4. Decentralized Staking Mining for Sequencers (Q2 2025)
MintCore plans to release decentralized staking mining for Mint Blockchain sequencers around Q2 2025, implemented via the MintPool protocol. MintPool supports staking of quality crypto assets on both Ethereum and Mint Blockchain networks.
This decentralized staking feature allows the decentralized distribution of core revenues, including $MINT and $ETH assets. $MINT holders can participate in staking to secure the network and earn additional on-chain rewards.
5. Decentralized NFT Indexer and Metadata Storage Layer (Q4 2025)
In Q4 2025, MintCore plans to launch two core infrastructures for NFT asset data:
Decentralized NFT indexer
Distributed storage layer for NFT metadata
These infrastructures will enhance the decentralization of NFT lifecycle management, improve asset security, and mitigate potential risks from centralization. The MintCore team will provide detailed technical specifications and welcomes community participation in developing these key infrastructures.
Mint Blockchain aims to enable everyone in the world to own NFTs, making NFTs a new digital lifestyle for humanity. If you believe in the NFT ecosystem and industry, and see the vast potential for NFT applications and market scale, join the Mint Ecosystem and build the future together!
