Roadmap

Nival Network · NVL development plan

Scaling up
Nival strategy

Eight stages.
More possibilities.

Building Nival into a network for agreements: an accessible wallet, clear payment terms and infrastructure for users, developers and businesses.

Showing 8 of 8 stages
02Scaling up
Network

A node built to withstand disruption

Enable small servers to participate fully, with predictable memory and disk requirements.

  • Output and key-image indexes, pruned node storage and verifiable bootstrap snapshots.
  • Failure testing: connection loss, full disks, crash recovery and chain reorganizations.
  • Independent review of the protocol, wallet and peer transport, with published results.
Stage outcome

A node recovers from failure and continues validating the network within defined resource limits.

03New capabilities
Payments

Agreements with multiple milestones

Extend conditional payments to milestone-based work, with a separate amount, approval and refund boundary for each stage.

  • Multiple settlement milestones within one agreement, each funded separately.
  • An agreement simulator showing outcomes for approval, refusal or expiry before funding.
  • Templates for project work, digital deliveries and individual milestone payments.
Stage outcome

Participants see the complete settlement process before funding and approve each completed milestone.

04Key protection
Wallet

Offline signing

Separate network access from signing so that a key can remain on a dedicated device without an internet connection.

  • Online watch-only balances and preparation of unsigned transactions.
  • Transfer packages and signatures through QR codes or files.
  • A dedicated review screen for amount, recipient, fee and terms before signing.
Stage outcome

Funds can be sent without connecting the device holding the private key to the network.

05New format
Wallet

Agreement capsule

Combine terms, signatures and receipts into a portable package that can be verified independently of the main wallet.

  • Export the full agreement record: terms, approvals and settlement or refund references.
  • A small independent tool to verify signatures and blockchain confirmations.
  • Prove address ownership with a signed challenge, without sending a test payment.
Stage outcome

Proof of agreement and settlement can be shared as a separate file without sharing the key or wallet profile.

06Wider access
Ecosystem

Nival on every screen

Bring NVL to mobile users and application developers while keeping key operations in the native core.

  • Android and iOS wallets built on a shared C++ foundation.
  • SDK and integration examples for JavaScript and Python.
  • Payment links, QR invoices and payment status notifications for external services.
Stage outcome

Use NVL on a phone and integrate it into products through a documented interface.

07Market access
Integrations

NVL beyond the wallet

Prepare the technical foundation for external markets and everyday NVL acceptance.

  • An exchange integration kit: deposits, withdrawals, confirmations, reorganization handling and balance reconciliation.
  • Discussions with trading platforms and submission of listing applications.
  • Market data aggregator profiles and payment service integrations.
Stage outcome

The infrastructure gives platforms the tools to integrate NVL and process user transactions.

08Long-term direction
Protocol

Protocol upgrades with advance notice

Keep protocol development open: each significant change has a specification, verification and a clear activation process.

  • Public change proposals with discussion and a separate testing network.
  • A decision archive explaining what changes, why, and the height at which each rule takes effect.
  • Reproducible builds, independent validation tools and coordinated network testing.
Stage outcome

Node operators can understand upcoming upgrades and independently verify the rules and builds.

Help shape the next stage

Discuss protocol proposals, network tools and wallet feedback in the project's public development channels.
