 # Obsero Roadmap
 
-## Phases
+## V1 — Autonomous Probe MVP
 
-- Proof of Concept
-- Public Alpha Release
-- Full Blockchain Integration (Base L2)
-- IPFS Persistence Hardening
-- Governance DAO Setup
-- Multichain Deployment
-- Premium Features (notifications, custom dashboards)
+Goal:  
+Deploy a minimal viable version of Obsero probes capable of fully decentralized monitoring without relying on third-party services.
 
-## Goals
+### Features
 
-- Build a decentralized monitoring standard.
-- Enable trustless, community-driven infrastructure observability.
+- HTTP and ICMP ping support
+- Proof generation (timestamp, target, latency, HTTP code)
+- SHA256 hashing of proof data
+- ECDSA signature with auto-generated private key
+- Address of the probe embedded in proofs
+- Local IPFS node integration for proof uploads
+- Auto-hosted GeoIP resolution (local database, no external API)
+- Configurable interval daemon mode (e.g., every 5-30 minutes)
+- Secure `.env` configuration for optional customizations
+- CLI parameters: `--target`, `--output`, `--ipfs`, `--interval`
+- Resilience to IPFS downtime (retry mechanism)
+- Lightweight logging system (info, warning, error)
+- Makefile for cross-platform compilation
+
+### Infrastructure V1
+
+- Probe binary running as a daemon or cronjob
+- Local IPFS node (self-hosted)
+- Local GeoIP database (e.g., MaxMind GeoLite2 or IP2Location)
+- No dependency on external APIs or cloud services
+- Proofs are signed and uploaded automatically
+
+---
+
+## V2 — Account Linking, Reputation, Advanced Monitoring
+
+Goal:  
+Enable users to associate probes to personal accounts and manage their observability reputation through blockchain anchoring and dashboards.
+
+### Features
+
+- Web application (Obsero Portal)
+- User authentication via wallet (MetaMask, Ledger, Trezor)
+- Probe address linking through signed message
+- Multiple probes per user account
+- Explorer to view submitted proofs
+- Staking model to improve probe reputation (optional)
+- Rewards model based on quality and consistency
+- DAO governance preparation
+- Extended probe types: API response checks, TCP port monitors
+- Alerting system (webhooks, Telegram, email)
+
+### Infrastructure V2
+
+- IPFS cluster management (optional for redundancy)
+- Smart contract upgrades (multi-chain support, optimized gas)
+- Dashboard portal with proof validation and reputation scores
+- Secure server backend for managing user-probe associations
+- Encrypted storage of non-critical metadata (optional)

+## Deployment Strategy
+
+| Phase           | Description                                               |
+|-----------------|-----------------------------------------------------------|
+| V1 Alpha        | Internal deployment, private nodes, basic data collection |
+| V1 Public Beta  | Open probe download, public IPFS CIDs, on-chain anchoring |
+| V2 Alpha        | Launch user portal, wallet authentication, probe linking  |
+| V2 Public       | DAO governance, reward distribution, multi-probe support  |
