Testnet release schedule
The team announced a phased release over six weeks. The announced schedule and verified availability are shown separately.
Available · Testnet network and RPC
In developmentRelease planned in the team’s programme · Explorer → Wallet → Faucet → Bridge → Staking dashboard
Green: RPC verified reachable. Yellow: planned release, not yet verified available. “In development” describes the announced programme, not a technical check of development.
Weeks are relative to the team’s announcement, not firm dates. This programme is separate from the 2027 roadmap.

Presale & staking
Presale and staking phase: Q2 2025–Q2 2027 (page 6). Presale completion is expected in Q2 2027, depending on market conditions and demand (page 12).
Devnet presented as operational
According to the documentation and updates published by the project, SVM programs run natively on the Devnet, including an explorer and testing that covers, in particular, SPL tokens and multi-signature configurations.
Security audits
Security audits of the token contract are public. They are not full audits of the Layer 2 protocol or of the Canonical Bridge. As of 10 August 2026, the monitoring carried out for this site had identified no complete public report covering the bridge, the sequencer and the Layer 2 protocol as a whole.
Canonical Bridge in the testing phase
According to the project's documentation, the BTC↔Hyper Canonical Bridge is in the testing phase on the Devnet, while the forced-exit function (guaranteed exit) is still in development. The stated objective is further development towards a bridge that is progressively less trust-dependent and less reliant on centralised custody.
Public Testnet
The team has announced the testnet RPC and a progressive rollout of explorer, wallet, faucet, bridge and staking. Our independent observatory reads network activity without requiring a wallet.
Mainnet launch
Mainnet objective: Q2 2027 (page 6). A planned Layer 2 launch with bridge, SVM and dApps; testnet RPC availability does not confirm mainnet launch.
Token listings
Listing target: Q2 2027 (page 14), subject to presale completion and market conditions. Page 6 also includes listings in Q3: timing needs reconfirmation. CEX names require official announcements.
Ecosystem expansion
Q3 2027 objective (page 6): developer toolkit, SDK/API, partner projects and initial DAO framework. Listings have a separate Q2 target elsewhere in the document.
DAO & decentralisation
Q4 2027 objective (page 6): DAO proposals and voting, incentives for operators and developers. A planned phase, not proof of achieved decentralisation.
Critical dependencies: In assessing mainnet readiness, particular attention should be paid to the following: (1) full audits of the protocol and the bridge, (2) stabilisation of the canonical bridge and forced-exit mechanisms, (3) a data-availability solution, and (4) the final tokenomics parameters. These elements represent essential dependencies that must be verified before the mainnet can be considered operational.
