Introduction

RetroBridge embarks on an ambitious journey towards full decentralisation, guided by a meticulously structured roadmap. This roadmap unfolds in four distinctive phases — Sunrise, Midday, Sunset, and Midnight — each marking a significant milestone in expanding our product and community reach. These phases are not merely steps but transformative periods, each heralding new developments and exciting opportunities.

Sunrise Phase: The Dawn of a New Era

The Sunrise Phase signifies the genesis of our product, unveiling initial functionalities to the community. It’s a phase of technological blossoming, marked by the expansion of EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine) Networks and Ethereum L2 (Layer 2) Networks. This foundational stage sets the scene for broader technological integration, ensuring that the RetroBridge ecosystem is robust, scalable, and ready for future innovations.

Midday Phase: The Zenith of Expansion

As the sun reaches its zenith, so does the RetroBridge in its Midday Phase. This period focuses on transcending the initial boundaries, specifically through the expansion of Non-EVM Networks. The aim here is to enhance the user experience significantly and foster an environment of active community engagement. By expanding the product’s capabilities and reach, RetroBridge commits to delivering an unparalleled bridging experience.

Sunset Phase: The Twilight of Maturation

The Sunset Phase marks the maturation of the product. It’s characterized by the launch of the Cross Chain Swap, a feature that epitomizes the phase’s essence — refinement and preparation for an integrated ecosystem. This phase is dedicated to fine-tuning the features, consolidating community feedback, and ensuring that RetroBridge is not just a product but a comprehensive and seamless experience.

Midnight Phase: The Enigma of Transformation

As the clock strikes midnight, RetroBridge is poised to transform, venturing into a realm of total autonomy. The Midnight Phase is shrouded in mystery, promising an era of innovation and excitement. It represents the future of RetroBridge — a future full of potential and anticipation for what lies beyond the horizon.

The Journey Within: Engaging Quests and Soulbound Rewards

Within each phase, RetroBridge introduces “Journeys” — a series of quests that invite users to delve into the updates and explore the most significant functionalities specific to each phase. These Journeys are more than tasks; they are adventures, inviting participants to engage deeply with the RetroBridge ecosystem.

Soulbound NFTs: A Testament to Commitment

Participants who successfully navigate these Journeys will be rewarded with special soulbound NFTs. These NFTs, unique in their non-transferable nature, are not just digital tokens but symbols of the user’s commitment and contributions to the RetroBridge vision. They serve as a testament to the journey traversed and the milestones achieved.

Practical Perks and Future Promises

Beyond their symbolic significance, these soulbound NFTs carry practical benefits, such as reduced gas fees within the RetroBridge bridging ecosystem. Moreover, select NFTs are set to be endowed with additional utilities, the specifics of which will be unveiled in due time, adding another layer of anticipation and excitement to the RetroBridge journey.

RetroBridge is not just a product; it’s a journey, an experience, and a community. With each phase, RetroBridge redefines the possibilities, inviting everyone to be a part of this transformative expedition. As we navigate from Sunrise to Midnight, each step brings us closer to a future where the potential is boundless, and the journey is just as rewarding as the destination.
