Again, I don’t want to get in to specific roadmap details for Apollo in this post. And to be clear, a move in this direction would also mean years of work. But some of the potential benefits could include:
- Zero-fee network transactions for users
- Initially, zero network congestion, with the DAO given authority to permit new games/projects/programs later
- A network optimized for Star Atlas
- Validators compensated via the DAO (perhaps the first form of revenue distribution)
- POLIS locking requirements for validators
- Licensing/Node sales to validators
- State hashes secured on Solana, further hardening Apollo security and retaining the relationship with Solana
- Solana programs easily re-deployed on Apollo
To be clear, Apollo would not be an L2 rollup solution. It would be an independent, fully decentralized network, over time. But it would leverage one of the most performant blockchain protocol codebases in existence today, and be potentially security hardened by Solana’s network state.
This is the absolute TLDR version of what Apollo could become. More from us in the near future. But I wanted to reassure everyone that we are thinking about these issues. We do want a positive gaming experience for everyone in Star Atlas today, and all of the future players/creators/builders/entrepreneurs we see joining. And at the risk of sounding repetitive, you all are participating in the bleeding edge of innovation. Which means we’re going to hit some bumps in the road. But we’re going to overcome any obstacle in our way, and we’re going to make this thing a reality.
Power to the People.
