Vision & Roadmap 2025

Our vision is to turn every camera-equipped device into a "Vault of Vision." By leveraging Solana's high speed and low cost, we make professional-grade authentication accessible to every photographer, from hobbyists to world-class journalists.

Phase 1 - Foundation (Q1 2025)

  • **Smart contract (Anchor)** for ownership + verification.
  • **Photo hashing & authenticity layer (SHA-256)**: Ensuring the integrity of the original file.
  • **Photo minting integration via Metaplex**: Seamless NFT creation on Solana.
  • **Full wallet connectivity**: Integration with Phantom, Solflare, and Backpack.
  • **Arweave/IPFS decentralized storage**: Your photos live beyond any single server.
  • **Milestone**: Launch of Photographer Proof System (PPS) - ownership verified by wallet + blockchain signature.

    • Phase 2 - Expansion (Q2 2025)

  • **Mobile app (React Native)** with built-in camera + wallet deep link.
  • **Instant mint**: capture → mint → verify in seconds.
  • **Security layer** for tamper-proof metadata (EXIF, GPS, Timestamp).
  • **Compressed NFT support** for mass photo minting at near-zero cost.
  • **Creator Dashboard** for managing minted works and viewing authenticity metrics.

    • Phase 3 - Ecosystem Growth (Q3 2025)

  • **Creator Profiles** with authenticity badges.
  • **Community DAO** for photographers to govern the platform.
  • **Staking mechanism** for $SKLK holders to earn a share of platform fees.

    • Phase 4 - AI + Authentication (Q4 2025)

  • **AI authenticity verifier** for identifying manipulated or AI-generated content.
  • **Global index** of verified photographers.
  • **"Proof of Vision" system**: An on-chain identity layer for visual storytellers.
  • **Decentralized curation** powered by the community.
  • **Governance system** for $SKLK token holders to vote on key protocol upgrades.
  • **Milestone**: Skeleton DAO + Proof of Vision Beta.
