# Future Plans

### Phase One:  <a href="#phase-one" id="phase-one"></a>

Our initial objective is to establish all the fundamental functions of current data feeding and verification solutions, while also developing a range of non-traditional data sourcing options for Dapp builders to use. We aim to create a one-stop-shop for all data sourcing needs without the need for manual HTTP calls.

### Phase Two:&#x20;

Our objective is to create cross-chain data querying and data structure tools similar to the cross-chain version The Graph. This will be an essential data infrastructure.

### Phase Three:&#x20;

As the data marketplace becomes more mature, stable, and widely used, we will develop analytics tools to extract meaningful data findings, patterns, and interpretations. We will also implement low-cost commercialization functionalities for the public.

### Phase Four:&#x20;

Our ultimate goal is to provide an essential Open API and SDK from a high-level perspective with the above tools, fully powering the data economy.

### Technology Integration:&#x20;

The NeuronNetwork team is exploring further research in the field of decentralized networks. We have identified several potential solutions to increase the security and speed of the Neuron Network.

### Zero-knowledge Submissions:&#x20;

Zero-knowledge proofs (ZKP) allow parties to prove that they know a value without revealing the value. For the Network, parties can submit a ZKP for the mining solution along with a hidden query value. Once the five parties are chosen as successful miners, they are required to post the unhidden value (Network query) which corresponds to the hidden value submitted with the ZKP. This could help save gas costs for submissions, prevent mirroring, and further incentivize miners to compete for the median value.

### TLS Notary Proofs:&#x20;

The Neuron Network plans to use TLS Notary Proofs to provide assurances that a website was accurately queried and that no error was returned. Different levels of assurances can be returned (or stored) with the query to ensure that miners are accurately reporting data from the requested query.

### Optimistic Implementation:&#x20;

We plan to implement a complementary non-mining network system that allows for data submission by any party for the data requests. This system assumes data submitters have the best intentions and can allow for disputes by requiring a PoS and/or can be based on submitter reputation. This implementation would be considered less secure and would cater to projects/Dapps/users that may not be time-sensitive and can shop around for data.

### Automatic Reporting and Monitoring:&#x20;

We plan to conduct off-chain analysis to detect outliers and report them to gain the "bad" miner's stake. For example, we could report a value/miner if the mean differs from the median by a certain amount.

The Neuron Network offers a decentralized option for high-value off-chain data. Our team plans to deploy our current contracts on the Neuron chain in the future and continue researching how to create a secure, scalable, and on-demand Network to help smart contracts reach their full potential.<br>
