Aiming to create a strong foundation for every other category in the roadmap, the milestones in this category focus on making the Nimiq blockchain as secure as possible and on making it interoperable with other blockchain networks.
Security comes first for a reason: with today’s advances in AI, weaknesses in software are found faster than ever. Interoperability matters just as much, because the bridge is what lets people bring the assets they already hold onto Nimiq, in a truly decentralized way.
