+# Gnarly Roadmap
+
+### Mid-May 2018
+
+- Initial prototype of server-side gnarly, proving the initial concept. Supports:
+    - monitoring arbitrary Ethereum blockchain events via developer-defined state function,
+    - handling short-lived forks, uncles, and blockchain uncertainty while keeping the persisted state up to date,
+    - includes event logs for every state transition recorded,
+    - persisting the reduced state to arbitrary stores,
+    - ensures that the persisted state is GraphQL-compatible for reactive frontends.
+
+### Mid-May to August 2018
+
+- Production ready version of server- and client-side gnarly. Supports:
+    - optimistic state transitions,
+    - confidence intervals and mempool introspection for tx monitoring.
+- a Gas Price Estimation API powered by gnarly,
+    - with a very generous free tier, subsidized by the grant.
+- a Token Balances API powered by gnarly,
+    - with a very generous free tier, subsidized by the grant.
+
+
+### History
+- 2018-05-07 pushed timeline back ~1 month due to unexpected complexity
