# Roadmap

Axiome's global mission is to build a connected ecosystem of cutting-edge DeFi products, from which AXM holders will continually generate income.

## 2025

#### 1. AXIOME CHAIN V2.0

The blockchain upgrade to version 2.0 will allow third-party developers to build decentralized solutions on Axiome Chain. The more solutions are built on Axiome Chain, the higher the network activity and the stronger the utility of AXM.

Additionally, the new blockchain version will support the built-in IBC (Inter-Blockchain Communication) module. This module will enable token migration from Axiome Chain to other networks that have integrated IBC, as well as accelerate AXM’s access to numerous already-developed decentralized solutions within the Cosmos ecosystem.

#### 2. AXIOME TRADE

An L1-DEX for perpetual futures built on Axiome Chain v2.0. The exchange functionality will include three key areas:

**Axiome Pump** – the ability to issue your own tokens in just two clicks. Forget about programming - simply name your new token, set the emission size, and add it to Axiome Pump. Done!

**Axiome Swap** – a spot AMM exchange for all tokens issued on Axiome Chain.

**Axiome Futures** – a terminal for trading perpetual futures. Our goal is to allow tokens issued on Axiome Chain to access the futures market once they meet capitalization and trading volume requirements on Axiome Swap.

## 2026

**Development of proposal and voting mechanics.** DAO is the best and fairest way for the community to independently determine the direction of Axiome's development. However, a full-fledged DAO can only exist on a well-constructed foundation. For DAO to come into effect, it is necessary to understand that there is a sufficient number of Axiome Chain developers and contributors among users, and the users themselves are aware of the project's development direction.

{% hint style="info" %}
From the very beginning of the project, we make maximum efforts to ensure that the majority of Axiome users associate themselves with the ecosystem and understand the significance of their actions. For example, the [variable delegation reward rate](../../axm-coin/delegation#risk-management) directly depends on the ratio of delegated AXM to those already mined, meaning the community determines the current rate!
