RoadMaps

Building Blocks Technologies was formed and hit the ground running in 2020, which was a great year for firmly establishing our baseline.

​

In 2021, we will be launching two products:  Blockchain Opportunity Analysis (BOA), which is a public-facing, data analysis of the blockchain space.  This product leverages off of the ML/NLP/DataAnalytics framework that we built for our in-house, forward looking view of the blockchain space.  This product will launch at the end of Q2.

​

The second product we will be launching in 2021 is Stakey.  Stakey is a tooling solution for Financial Tracking, Analysis and Reporting for the Proof of Stake (PoS) economy.  We will initially focus on the ETH 2.0 validator community with a big picture view of expanding to support a dozen or more PoS networks.  Stakey is scheduled to be released in Q4.

​

In addition to our 2 product launches, in 2021, we will be expanding our development and consultation services.  Building Blocks Technologies is now very well positioned to become the "go to" source for projects that can't afford to fail.  Our positioning in this regard is built on our in-house data analytics analysis, coupled with our in-house training of technologists to meet the demands of this thriving and vibrant community.

​

The following is a summary of our 2021 Roadmap.  Below the 2021 Roadmap, is our 2020 roadmap, which we are happy to say we executed to plan!
