Roadmap

Current Status: v0.1

Implemented

Core Protocol:

• 5-stage handshake protocol (Attestation → Vector Match → Deal Breakers → Human Chat → Unmask)
• Locality Sensitive Hashing (LSH) for privacy-preserving discovery
• Commit-reveal protocol for LSH signature exchange
• Adaptive anti-spam with tiered difficulty (16 → 20 → 24 → 28 bits)
• Zero-knowledge proofs for Hamming distance verification (gnark/PlonK, BN254)

Cryptography:

• Ed25519 identity and signing
• X25519 Diffie-Hellman key exchange
• AES-256-GCM authenticated encryption
• Argon2id key derivation
• Hashcash proof-of-work

Services:

• End-to-end encrypted chat with zero-persistence
• LSH-based peer discovery via DHT
• Load-adaptive difficulty controller

Infrastructure:

• libp2p networking with Kademlia DHT
• mDNS local discovery
• Local embedding via Ollama (nomic-embed-text)
• IPC between daemons
• Encrypted key storage

Tooling:

• mymonad-agent (P2P daemon)
• mymonad-cli (user interface)
• mymonad-ingest (data processing)
• Configuration system (TOML)
• Website and documentation

Near Term

v0.2 - Polish

• Multi-monad profiles
• Cross-platform synchronization

v0.5 - Enterprise

• Self-hosted deployment guide
• Compliance documentation
• Custom embedding model integration
• Audit logging (without match data exposure)

Long Term

v1.0 - Production

• Formal security audit
• Protocol stability guarantee
• Long-term support commitment
• Community governance model

Beyond

• Decentralized identity standards integration (DID)
• Hardware security module support
• Advanced privacy features (differential privacy, MPC)
• Agent-to-agent protocol extensions

Contributing

MyMonad is built in the open. We welcome contributions that align with our core principles:

• Privacy first — No telemetry, no tracking, no cloud dependencies
• Local computation — All AI processing happens on your hardware
• Cryptographic trust — Math, not reputation, determines compatibility
• Individual sovereignty — You own your data, your keys, your destiny
