Roadmap

On a relentless pursuit towards a
sustainable, climate conscious society

Start ARTIS development

Q1 / 2017

The development of ARTIS was started with the objective to underpin use cases for a sustainable, carbon neutral economy.

1

ARTIS Public Blockchain Launch

April 2018

The ARTIS Blockchain was introduced in cooperation with the Cryptoeconomics Research Lab at the WU Vienna with the objective of offering an open blockchain protocol to experiment with programmable money for various applications.

2

ARTIS Σ1 Mainnet Launch

November 2018

While the crypto markets were collapsing, we have been working relentlessly to launch the ARTIS mainnet and managed to overdeliver in times where most market participants underdelivered.

3

5

World Premier of the car that charges itself

May 2019

ARTIS supports the world’s first automated EV-charging with streamable DAI via the Minerva Wallet proving that real-world blockchain based use cases are on the verge of mass adoption.

6

ARTIS HBBFT Testnet

Nov/Dec 2019

First time testing of the Honey Badger BFT consensus (HBBFT) in the OpenEthereum client, with 100x throughput compared to Bitcoin and ~1 sec. block time with instant finality.

7

ARTIS τ1 Testnet - POSDAO Upgrade

Feb 2020

The ARTIS τ1 testnet was upgraded to use the POSDAO / AuRa consensus logic, providing improved randomness and a testbed for a new staking logic also implemented by xDai Chain.

8

Minerva MVP - Digital Wallet

May 2020

Minerva defines a new type of digital wallet, through the integration of self-sovereign identities (SSI) and moneys on multiple blockchain networks. The use of services allows the simplification of user on-boarding to ARTIS and other blockchains.

9

10m Blocks on ARTIS Σ1 Mainnet

June 2020

ARTIS Σ1 mainnet was upgraded to 'Istanbul' with the latest OpenEthereum client (former Parity client) and has successfully completed 10m blocks without a single second of downtime.

10

Joint HBBFT Development

July 2020

After starting the integration of the Honey Badger BFT consensus (HBBFT) to the Parity / OpenEthereum client with POA Network / xDai Chain and LUKSO, now also DMD Diamond supports the development to bring this outstanding consensus into production.

11

Bridge ARTIS Σ1 < > xDai Chain

Dec 2020

ARTIS Σ1 is connected to xDai Chain, allowing ATS to be transferred into the evolving xDai Chain DeFi ecosystem and work towards a listing on the Honeyswap DEX.

12

Minerva Wallet - Mainnet Activation

Dec 2020

The Minerva Wallet now allows the interaction with ARTIS Σ1, xDai Chain, POA Core and Ethereum mainnet. The integration of WalletConnect was started.

13

ARTIS ∑2 Transition Path

Feb 2021

Announcement of the transition towards the ARTIS 2.0 (ARTIS ∑2) network with the migration of ATS from ARTIS ∑1 and preparation for an IDO (Initial DAO Offer) via a Gnosis Auction.

14

ARTIS 2.0 Whitepaper

March 2021

The white paper for ARTIS 2.0 describes the core innovations of the protocol and the design decisions resulting from the requirements of the IoT markets around energy and mobility.

15

ARTIS DAO Gnosis Auction

April 2021

It is planned to auction about 8% of the ATS coin supply in a fair Gnosis Auction on xDai Chain. The auction will start May 4th, 2021 and last until May 11, 2021.

16

Honeyswap DEX Listing

May 2021

After the completed Gnosis Auction and definition of the settlement price for ATS, it will be listed with sufficient liquidity on the Honeyswap DEX.

17

ARTIS ∑2 Launch

Q3 2021

The ARTIS Σ2 network will be the first Euro stable chain with real-time cashflows, enabled by the Honey Badger BFT consensus (HBBFT), streaming money support and POSDAO staking of ATS.

18

Additional DEX and CEX Listings

Q3/Q4 2021

In order to simplify the access to the ARTIS ∑2 network, further listing options on centralized and decentralized exchanges are evaluated.

19

Further Development

Q4 2021

The development of the network will be focused on bringing data related applications onto the ARTIS ∑2 network by providing more and more platform tools to build a sustainable future in a zero-carbon society.
