Pilot Node #1 in Dallas, Texas has been signing environmental data on Cardano since June 2024. 51,466 hardware-signed SaveCards, zero gaps, continuous. This is the current state of the network: what is live, what is in pilot, and what is next.
One honest snapshot of where every deployment stands today. Live means signing data on chain right now. In pilot means a scoped site under active build. Exploratory means diligence, not yet committed.
Pilot Node #1, Dallas, Texas. Hardware-signed SaveCards on Cardano, continuous since June 2024.
Idaho enhanced rock weathering (ERW) pilot. Multi-node deployment for ERW carbon removal MRV under active build.
Genesis network expansion. 200 nodes planned, additional nodes targeted for Q1 2027 following mainnet migration.
The first Mālama node has been running in Dallas, Texas without interruption. It emits continuous, hardware-signed environmental telemetry, ECDSA-signed at the device, then anchored on chain as SaveCards. No gaps in the record.
Every reading is signed in a tamper-resistant secure element the moment it is taken. Change one digit and the signature breaks. The chain of custody starts at the sensor.
51,466 hardware-signed SaveCards recorded on Cardano, a continuous archive of field telemetry that a buyer, registry, or regulator can verify directly.
Running since June 2024 without interruption. Continuous soil, air, and device telemetry, so the record is complete rather than sampled after the fact.
Our second deployment is an enhanced rock weathering (ERW) pilot in Idaho. ERW draws down carbon as crushed silicate rock weathers in soil. The hard part is proving it, so this is a multi-node site built for continuous, hardware-signed measurement rather than after-the-fact estimation.
A pilot site instrumented to monitor enhanced rock weathering carbon removal, with continuous soil chemistry captured on the same signing architecture as the Texas node.
A cluster of nodes deployed for ERW MRV, extending the hardware-signed model from a single node to a full site so removal can be measured directly at the source.
The path from one live node to a network. Milestones below are targets, sequenced behind a smart contract audit, and may shift as work and diligence progress.
| Milestone | Target | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Pilot Node #1, Dallas, Texas | Live on Cardano, June 2024 | Live |
| Idaho ERW pilot | Multi-node ERW MRV site | In pilot |
| Genesis network | 200 nodes | In progress |
| Mainnet migration | Q4 2026, post-audit | Planned |
| Additional nodes | Q1 2027 | Planned |
Mainnet migration follows a smart contract audit and is targeted for Q4 2026. Additional Genesis nodes are targeted for Q1 2027. Dates are current targets, not commitments.
