The path

Roadmap

From mainnet to the Sei-fork upgrade, LayerX, and the backbone of PaxLabs' Matrix.

Phase 0

Network foundation

Shipped
  • Mainnet launch with deterministic finality (Chain ID 125)
  • Fully EVM-compatible execution, PAX gas token
  • Public RPC endpoint and PaxScan explorer
  • Smart wallet policy rules: spending caps, allowlists, stop rules
  • Agent SDKs in Python and TypeScript
Phase 1

Foundations: agent commerce on mainnet

Shipped
  • Streaming payments and conditional escrow
  • Service registry with reputation built from onchain settlement records
  • Market-based pricing for machine services
  • Underwriting for service capacity
  • Working agent commerce loop on mainnet
Phase 2

Performance: the hybrid binary and LayerX

Shipped
  • Network upgraded to the Sei-fork hybrid binary: Twin Turbo + machineRFT (June 2026)
  • Up to 5,000 TPS with ~250ms average blocks, record sustained low of 0.45ms
  • Instant deterministic finality under machineRFT
  • LayerX agent channel live: zero fees, instant settlement (June 2026)
  • LayerX batches settle to Paxeer L1 every few minutes
Phase 3

Marketplace: Deus and 402LXP on LayerX

Shipped
  • Deus, PaxLabs' API and agent marketplace, live on LayerX (July 2026)
  • 402LXP payment protocol launched: HTTP-native 402 flow for agents (July 2026)
  • USDX settlement for agent-to-service payments on LayerX
  • Paxeer confirmed as the backbone network of PaxLabs' Matrix project
Phase 4

Scale: growing the agent economy

In flight
  • More services and providers onboarded to Deus
  • Additional agent framework adapters over the SDKs
  • TEE attestations and signed-output verification
  • Underwriting tooling for LayerX service providers
  • Broader settlement-record coverage across the marketplace
Phase 5

Backbone: Matrix at production scale

Planned
  • Paxeer as the settlement backbone for the full Matrix stack
  • Integrated data, compute, and oracle market
  • Production volume from partner platforms
  • Standards stable for external adoption
  • Settlement and coordination for autonomous services at scale
