LACChain’s networks legal-tech roadmap
4 min readJul 28, 2019
The roadmap for LACChain DLT public-permissioned networks consists of four consecutive stages: Test-net, pro test-net, pre main-net and main-net. Each stage is characterized by enhancements in 7 areas related to technical and legal matters.

Legal
- Test-net disclaimer
Pro test-net

- Documentation available in the LACChain’s Github to deploy nodes in the network
- Validator nodes enabled
- Writer nodes enabled
- Boot nodes enabled
- Smart-contract-based permissioning
- App for managing permissioning
- Smart-contract based local whitelisting
- Privacy leveraged as native on LACChain
- Dashboard for nodes
