THE ROUTE AHEAD
Roadmap
Where Nomad is on the road, and the stops still ahead. Dates firm up as each stop gets close.
- 01
Foundations
IN PROGRESSUnderway
- The Nomad routing library holds identities in memory, with no database on disk.
- Every routing tag derives from one 12-word recovery phrase.
- Nomid, the identity app; manages all your named nomad identities as well as a public ID, all restored by the phrase. iOS · In progressmacOS · In progressAndroid · In progressWindows · In progressLinux · In progress

Testnet: first release
NEXTTarget: mid-October 2026
- The first release covers the basics. Testnet will be upgraded by hard forks as features land, before mainnet.
- A public testnet of the Nomad node, tracking bandwidth per routing tag.
- RPCs to read bandwidth, by tag and as a full set.
- A testnet explorer, and builds to run your own node.
- 03
Identity and apps
NOT STARTEDAfter testnet
- Apps link to Nomid and sign as their own identity, starting with Murmur.
