Our strategy for fulfilling these milestones is marked by a blend of sequential progression and parallel initiations. At the core of Plain Finance’s value proposition is its capability to present property investment opportunities to our community. Right from the project's onset, appointing a lead for marketing and community engagement is pivotal. This individual will spearhead efforts to build the Plain Finance brand and nurture a community, with these tasks continuing throughout the project's lifespan and intensifying once the protocol is fully operational and all deliverables are achieved.

Technically, the project demands an initial phase of research led by our research lead. This phase is crucial for finalising the scope of the RWA protocol and the zkOracle. It encompasses confirming the necessary data sources and legal documentation, alongside structuring the implementation for the Smart Contracts. This will allow for the seamless incorporation of new zkOracles, markets, property listings, and custodians into the protocol. The outcome of this research phase is essential for drafting the public paper.

With a clear technical scope and access to required services and data sources, the implementation of our third deliverable will proceed in a test-driven manner. Leveraging Usher Labs’ existing research and infrastructure, including zero-knowledge proof systems such as zkLLVM, will significantly expedite the delivery of this milestone. Early initiation in the project timeline allows ample time for meeting all fundamental requirements and thorough testing ahead of a comprehensive peer review by the entire team.

Parallel to these technical efforts, legal counsel will examine the structure and agreements necessary for the custodial entity. This examination aims to ensure that token holders are acknowledged as beneficiaries with entitlements to dividends and voting rights executed through the protocol. This legal review is may affect the protocol's final design and the contents of the publicly shared paper.

Following the resolution of legal and technical details, the project lead will focus on drafting, refining, and releasing the paper on the protocol.

Subsequently, our development focus will shift towards the dApp, aiming to offer a seamless interface for viewing property listings, crowdfunding support, and comprehensive investor engagement.
