Phases below carry rough quarters. These are directional, not committed delivery dates.
Phase 1 — Mainnet Beta (Q3–Q4 2026)
Mainnet launch
Hyro Protocol on Solana mainnet, targeting October 2026. 3–5 anchor managers from HyroTrader, capped TVL per vault (~$50K initial), LP whitelist for the initial cohort.
Challenge Vault + LP-funded vaults
Permissionless on-chain challenge purchase in USDC; dual-track unlock at +15%.
UX wins
Embedded wallet onboarding (email signup), gas sponsorship across all transactions, PnL share cards with on-chain QR verification, monthly leaderboard, public payout reserve widget, versioned rulebook v1.0.
Phase 2 — Open Direct Vault + Hyro Pool (Q1 2027)
- Direct Vault application opens to verified managers from outside Hyro
- Hyro Pool v1 — diversified LP exposure across all verified traders
- Multi-signer oracle
- Insurance fund (low-yield, low-risk LP product)
- Additional exchange integrations
Phase 3 — $HYRO TGE & Governance (Q2 2027)
- $HYRO token generation event
- Token-based governance activation
- Curator-managed pool tiers
- Insurance fund expansion
- Challenge Vault scaling — broader cohort, higher TVL caps
Phase 4 — Open Infrastructure (Q3–Q4 2027)
- HyroAPI / HyroConnect — third-party prop firms, signal services, quant teams integrate via API
- On-chain perpetuals integration: Drift + Phoenix on Solana
- Vault product opens to funds, asset managers, algo desks, and market makers
- Adjacent vertical pilots (DAO treasury vaults, market-making vaults)
2030 vision
Looking further out, the directional thesis: Hyro Protocol established as a leading on-chain infrastructure layer for active crypto trading strategies — alongside category peers like Ethena (yield), Hyperliquid HLP (single-venue MM), and Kamino (lending) — with HyroAPI productizing funded-trading infrastructure as B2B revenue across the prop and asset-management sectors.None of these are committed delivery dates. They are the directional thesis the protocol is being built to support.
