Status & Roadmap

Where Cardano Builders Fund stands

The operational truth in one place: what is live as a public preview, what is explicitly not live, and the production gates ahead. This is controlled readiness — built in the open, honest about its stage.

Prototype foundation. Not accepting real funds yet.

Live public previews

Real and public today — a prototype foundation, online and honest about its stage. Each is a preview; none of it moves real funds.

Not live yet

Explicitly not active. These are directions and plans — not features you can use today. No real funds, custody, KYC, swaps, or settlement are live.

Real contributions

Production custody

Wallet signing & transactions

DB-backed campaign creation

KYC / KYB

Stablecoin swaps

Governance deposit pools

Production settlement

Current operational state

The hard facts behind the previews, stated plainly.

Wallet connection

Read-only foundation with global control, session restore, and detection diagnostics. Typhon and VESPR connect; compatibility testing continues. Use a preview/preprod/testnet wallet for testing. Test-safe; mainnet real funding disabled.

Real funding

Not live. No contributions, no custody, and no KYC.

Oracle

Mock in production. A live preprod rehearsal is pending real Kupo/Charli3 values.

Database

DB activation runbook prepared; migrations not applied. The production database is untouched.

Swap foundation

Quote/readiness preview only. Real swaps not live; transaction build/sign/submit disabled.

Transactions

Disabled. Nothing is signed or submitted.

Settlement

Disabled. No settlement, payout, refund, or return is triggered.

Future production gates

The order of work ahead. Each is a deliberate, reviewed gate — especially anything that touches real funds.

Later: stable-value and governance-pool architecture

Cardano Builders Fund is a prototype foundation. It is not accepting real funds, holds no custody, performs no KYC, runs no swaps, and has no production settlement or governance deposit pools live. Nothing here is legal, tax, or financial advice.
