Phase 2 scope
K-PPE Phase 1 established single-chain proof anchoring on Aster Chain. Every KA-HAP proof was tied to one Merkle root on one chain.
Phase 2 extends this to multi-chain anchoring. A single proof can now be verified on any supported chain without bridging or relaying. The root is replicated natively.
Target chains
Phase 2 launches with two chains:
- Aster Chain — primary anchor (already live)
- Base — secondary anchor (KairosAuth beta runs here)
Additional chains will follow based on ecosystem demand and security assessment.
Architecture
The multi-chain anchoring uses a hub-and-spoke model. Aster Chain remains the canonical source of truth. Proof roots are propagated to spoke chains via a lightweight attestation mechanism — no bridge tokens, no wrapped assets, no liquidity requirements.
Verification on any spoke chain returns the same result as verification on the hub. The proof is chain-agnostic by construction.
Timeline
- Q1 2026 — Multi-chain architecture finalized
- Q2 2026 — Base integration, testnet deployment
- Q3 2026 — Phase 2 mainnet, permissionless proof submission (Phase 3 preview)
K-PPE is the cryptographic engine powering KairosAuth and every proof-dependent product in the Kairos Lab stack.
