Read this first. This page is built from primary sources: white paper v3.7 (May 2026), tokenomics v3.9, the AERKey Privacy Layer white paper, official Aeredium blog posts, and AMA transcripts. Written sources and AMA comments do not always use identical timing language, so this page labels the difference instead of smoothing it over.
What is confirmed right now
Before covering what is coming, it helps to anchor what is already done. Several milestones that were roadmap items at the start of 2026 are now completed facts:
Testnet live · first block April 16, 2026
The Aeredium testnet is running. Blocks are being finalized by TEE-BFT consensus across multi-cloud validator enclaves. The public Blockscout explorer at explorer.aeredium.io shows live activity. First consensus block was April 16, 2026.
1,436,820 TPS benchmark · April 2026
A live multi-region benchmark across three geographic validator regions achieved 1,436,820 TPS, 2 million transactions, 1.39 seconds completion, 0% failure rate. Published on the official Aeredium blog.
$5M institutional investment · April 7, 2026
Private Markets Capital, LLC invested $5M via a SAFE agreement following the testnet benchmark. Confirmed via press release on the official Aeredium blog.
Mainnet · next production step
The July 23 AMA described the current topology as stagenet to testnet to mainnet. After mainnet, stagenet is expected to close except for unusual experiments, while testnet remains. Treat mainnet timing as pending until a formal release notice appears.
StablePro Wallet · iOS and Android broadly available per June 18 AMA
The June 18 AMA said StablePro Wallet had deployed on iOS and Android across most countries except sanctioned jurisdictions, superseding earlier comments that Apple access was limited. Verify current regional store availability through official links.
Near-term milestones: what is coming next
These are the milestones described as imminent in official sources. None have confirmed dates except the KIMA conversion window.
Mainnet launch · next production milestone
The July 23 AMA keeps mainnet as the next production step and describes the current path as stagenet to testnet to mainnet. No mainnet release notice is published yet; once mainnet starts, stagenet is expected to close except for unusual experiments.
KIMA-to-AERX conversion · Aug 1 visible, extension pending
The current StablePro transfer page still shows August 1, 2026 after the earlier June 30 cutoff. The July 23 AMA says remaining staking tokens and a claim contract are still being unlocked, and that the team will decide on any extension after the final smart-contract unlock while giving holders necessary time. KIMA holders convert at 5:1 into AERX through StablePro Wallet or the official access route.
AERX exchange listing · end-September team target
Tokenomics v3.9 allocates 40,000,000 AERX to Public Liquidity. The July 23 AMA says the team now expects listing around the end of September 2026, after a two-month token-marketing focus from August 1, and may use OTC with one or two exchanges it expects eventually to list with. No venue, OTC terms, or exchange-side notice is confirmed.
StablePro Wallet access · iOS and Android store listings
The June 18 AMA said iOS and Android availability had expanded to most eligible countries except sanctioned jurisdictions, and direct store listings were checked July 3. Verify current official links before downloading anything.
USDC / USDT stablecoin work
The June 25 AMA said a USDC contract deployment was expected early the following week and that USDT outreach was starting. Treat both as forward-looking until the contracts or official announcements are visible.
AERKey commercial phase
On July 23, Albert reframed AERKey as the primitive behind trust, KYC, threshold signatures, non-human validators, and observers. He said packages are out and the commercial phase is launching. These are team claims until public access, commercial terms, or named users are independently visible.
AER Police / agent containment
The ACI assessment and early-adopter registration are live. The July 23 AMA adds that AER Police can be used as an agent-only wallet/execution layer with StablePro-like layers, or as an independent policy engine with third-party systems. The team is seeking beta users whose agents touch money. Policy and audit boundaries still need formal documentation.
Lava RWA sandbox
The July 9 AMA described the sandbox as just starting with no timeline. The wider Caribbean real-estate initiative was valued at $5.4B, but only an unspecified portion may be tokenized. That figure is not Aeredium TVL, revenue, or committed settlement volume.
DApp Store and developer rewards
The team said a DApp Store has started with one example and that weekly DApp competitions and developer rewards are being finalized. Rules and ecosystem adoption are not yet published.
Quantum-resistance libraries
Albert said a report and libraries for quantum resistance should be released in roughly a week for community contribution. This is separate from the white paper's longer-term post-quantum migration design.
AI quartet patent milestone
The July 23 AMA framed a quartet of AIs for stablecoins and real-world assets as one of Aeredium's three main product lines. Albert said the USPTO gave a green light on June 1 and that issuance was expected July 28, 2026. Treat this as a forward-looking patent-status claim until a public patent record is verified.
Independent audit · in production, report not public
The July 23 AMA said an independent audit is currently being produced by a firm transcribed as "Harborne". The spelling, scope, and firm identity still need verification, and no public Aeredium-specific report has been identified. When published, the report will be the strongest independent validation of the architecture claims.
Phase 2: cross-chain expansion
White paper v3.7 describes a three-phase development framework. Phase 1 is the current testnet and mainnet launch stage. Phase 2 is the next defined layer of development. No date has been published for when Phase 2 begins.
According to white paper v3.7, Phase 2 covers:
Cross-chain infrastructure: Expanded interoperability tooling beyond the 10 confirmed chains already supported in the execution layer. The white paper does not specify which additional chains are targeted at this stage.
Public observability dashboard: A network monitoring interface giving external observers visibility into validator performance, consensus health, and cross-chain settlement activity. This makes the TEE validation architecture verifiable by anyone, not just those reading the attestation data directly from the blockchain.
Validator performance metrics: Published data on validator enclave performance across the AWS, Azure, and GCP distribution. This is relevant for institutional participants who need to assess network reliability before committing to settlement use cases.
These are features described in the white paper as part of the development arc, not confirmed deliverables with dates. They give a useful sense of where the project intends to go after mainnet establishes the base infrastructure.
Phase 3: privacy and post-quantum
Phase 3 is the longest-horizon layer described in white paper v3.7. No timeline has been published. These features depend on Phase 1 (mainnet) and Phase 2 (observability and expanded cross-chain) being complete and stable first.
Privacy-preserving transaction processing: Transactions processed without revealing amounts, participants, or contract logic to observers outside the execution environment. The TEE architecture already provides execution privacy for validators, but Phase 3 extends this to user-facing transaction privacy.
Dynamic cloud optimisation: Automated adjustment of validator enclave distribution across AWS, Azure, and GCP based on performance and cost factors. The current 50/30/20 allocation is fixed by protocol; dynamic optimisation would make this adaptive.
Post-quantum user transaction signatures: Replacement of the current ECDSA signature scheme with post-quantum resistant cryptography for user-signed transactions. The validator layer already uses hardware attestation that is structurally different from traditional signatures; this extends post-quantum resistance to the user side.
Advanced DeFi primitives: The white paper describes these as built on the settled TEE infrastructure. No specific DeFi products are named. The description suggests protocol-level primitives (AMM, lending, options infrastructure) rather than specific applications.
Phase 3 is genuinely long-horizon. Treat it as a directional statement of intent, not a delivery commitment.
AERKey Privacy Layer roadmap
The AERKey Privacy Layer white paper v2.1 covers the encryption infrastructure timeline independently of the main three-phase framework. White paper v3.7 confirms a five-layer privacy architecture and plans its two most developed layers for mainnet. The July 23 AMA says AERKey packages are out and the commercial phase is launching, but public availability and customer evidence still need verification.
Layers 1 and 4 · planned for mainnet
White paper v3.7 plans Layers 1 and 4 for mainnet. Layer 1 covers wallet-level and transaction-level encryption within the StablePro Wallet environment. Layer 4 covers protocol-level AES-256-GCM payload encryption for on-chain data. Treat delivery as pending until mainnet evidence and documentation are public.
Layers 2, 3 and 5 · post-mainnet development
The remaining three layers cover mempool-level encryption (preventing front-running), smart contract execution privacy, and DeFi operation privacy. These are the deeper infrastructure layers. No confirmed dates for post-mainnet delivery.
The AERKey system is covered by US Patent Application 63/977,868. A filed patent requires technical disclosure to a government registry, confirming the architecture is real enough to protect.
What hasn't been disclosed
Being honest about what is missing matters as much as documenting what exists. After the July 23 AMA, the following items still need formal public confirmation or implementation evidence:
Exchange partners. No CEX or DEX listing partner has been named. The July 23 AMA gives an end-September 2026 listing expectation and mentions possible OTC access with one or two future listing exchanges, but the 40M AERX Public Liquidity allocation still has no named venue or exchange-side confirmation. This will significantly influence day-one liquidity and price discovery.
Third-party audits. The July 23 AMA named or transcribed an audit firm as "Harborne" and said an independent audit is being produced. No report is public, and the firm spelling/scope should be verified before treating it as confirmed.
Developer ecosystem proof. The official developer page publishes network parameters, and the July 9 AMA said a DApp Store, weekly competitions, and developer rewards are starting. Published SDKs, competition rules, reward terms, adoption metrics, and repeat developer activity are still needed.
Governance. No governance structure or voting mechanism is described in published materials. Protocol governance is described as programmatic in white paper v3.7. The project is centrally operated at this stage.
Phase transition criteria. White paper v3.7 describes phases but does not specify what milestones trigger the move from Phase 1 to Phase 2 or Phase 2 to Phase 3.
This list is not a criticism. Early-stage projects routinely disclose milestones as they approach rather than all at once. It is context a serious researcher needs.

FAQ
Has Aeredium published an official roadmap?
No formal roadmap document with fixed dates has been published. Public testnet is live, and the July 23 AMA keeps mainnet as the next production step while shifting the team's exchange-listing target to end September 2026. White paper v3.7 still provides the broader three-phase framework.
When is the Aeredium mainnet launch?
The newest AMA does not provide a confirmed mainnet release notice. It describes the path as stagenet to testnet to mainnet, then an end-September exchange-listing target after token marketing begins on August 1.
When is the KIMA-to-AERX conversion?
August 1, 2026 remains the current visible StablePro transfer-page deadline. The July 23 AMA says extension timing depends on final smart-contract unlocks, and the team will give necessary time. Verify the live official transfer page before acting and use only official links from Aeredium, Kima, and StablePro channels.
Will there be more information before mainnet?
Almost certainly. Projects typically announce exchange partners, third-party audit results, and launch dates in the weeks before mainnet. None of these have appeared yet. Monitoring official Aeredium channels is the most reliable way to track progress.
Is CryptoWisdomHub affiliated with Aeredium?
No. This is an independent research site. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated by Aeredium, Kima, or StablePro. Always verify actions through official channels.
