[Informative] February Insights: Key Highlights from Plugin’s Journey

Manuni Mistry — Wed, 04 Mar 2026 16:31:37 +0000

As we move further into 2026, Plugin continues to build steadily across its infrastructure, ecosystem, and developer tooling. From live product launches to meaningful backend milestones, this month brings exciting progress worth sharing.

📰 News

🔔 Plugin RPC — Now Live on XDC Mainnet & Apothem Testnet

Plugin RPC is officially live on both XDC Mainnet and Apothem Testnet. The service delivers fast, low-latency transactions with a smooth experience for users. To celebrate the launch, a limited-time freemium tier is available.

Work on the WSS (WebSocket) version is actively underway, with pipeline development in progress.

🏠 EquitEdge

Significant backend progress has been made on the FMS (Facility Management System). The following core modules are now fully operational:

Authentication Module — core user access and account management flows.
FMS KYC Workflow — KYC submission flow for FMS users, with approval handled via the EquitEdge Platform.
Membership Module — FMS users can now purchase membership plans directly through the system.

The foundational user onboarding, verification, and access control system is now fully operational on the backend, setting the stage for broader rollout.

🔗 Plugin Core Development Update

Upcoming focus areas include Off-chain Reporting (OCR) designed to aggregate data off-chain and reduce gas fees while preserving decentralization as well as CCIP integration to further strengthen understanding of the Plugin core. Technical discussions with key contributors are planned to finalize the OCR design and implementation approach.

🍽️ Food for Thought

Decentralization is often discussed in terms of ownership and governance, but its true backbone is the network of operators who keep systems running. Node operators are the unsung architects of distributed infrastructure contributing compute, maintaining uptime, and ensuring that no single point of failure can compromise the whole. As blockchain networks scale, the relationship between protocol developers and node operators becomes increasingly important. Operators provide the geographic distribution and redundancy that makes a network truly resilient. The more thoughtfully this relationship is built, the stronger and more sustainable the ecosystem becomes.

[Informative] January Insights: Key Highlights from Plugin’s Journey

Manuni Mistry — Tue, 10 Feb 2026 10:02:18 +0000

As we step into the early months of 2026, Plugin continues to scale its infrastructure and deepen its commitment to decentralization, reliability, and real-world adoption. With major network upgrades and meaningful progress across our ecosystem, the foundation for the year ahead is being firmly set.

📰 News

🔔 Plugin Network & Ecosystem Updates

Plugin Decentralized Oracle Network just received a major power boost. An additional 60+ nodes are selected for actively providing data feeds as Standard Nodes, significantly to strengthen the network. This bolsters decentralization across the PLI ecosystem, delivers institutional-grade reliability, and increases throughput for Real-World Asset (RWA) data feeds.

📈 2025 Achievements & 2026 Roadmap

We’re gearing up to unveil a comprehensive overview of Plugin’s 2025 milestones along with our 2026 roadmap. Exciting developments, new upgrades, and ecosystem expansions are on the way stay tuned for the official announcement coming very soon!

🏠 EquitEdge Ecosystem Update

We have completed the smart contract and successfully tested the ability to mint our investment token using the ERC3643 standard, marking a significant step toward fully on-chain real-world asset investing. The platform is being built to allow users to invest seamlessly using USDC, which will simplify onboarding and improve accessibility for a wider audience. Once the underlying property milestones are fulfilled, the corresponding investment tokens will be released to investors, completing the investment lifecycle with transparency and trust at every stage.

🔗 RPC as a Service Update

The RPC-as-a-Service (HTTP) is now live on testnet for the moderator community to begin testing. Feedback is actively being collected, and improvements are underway to ensure the service is stable, reliable, and optimized for all use cases.

Work on the WSS (WebSocket) version is ongoing and will be made available soon for further testing, providing real-time connectivity and expanded functionality for developers and moderators alike.

🍽️ Food for Thought

Decentralization is no longer just about removing intermediaries — it’s about building systems that scale responsibly. As oracle networks grow stronger, reliability and execution become just as important as innovation. The future of Web3 belongs to networks that can handle real-world demand without compromising trust.

[Informative] September Insights: Key Highlights from Plugin’s Journey

Manuni Mistry — Fri, 03 Oct 2025 09:44:40 +0000

September has been an inspiring month for the Plugin ecosystem, marked by key demonstrations, community engagements, and infrastructure updates. Let’s take a look at the highlights and milestones.

📰 News

⚡RPC-as-a-Service

Our RPC-as-a-Service platform is evolving faster than ever! We’ve been rolling out a series of user-friendly upgrades designed to make monitoring seamless, WebSocket connections steadfast, and performance more consistent than before. Real-time monitoring and enhanced security are being fine-tuned to deliver a smoother experience across the board. The improvements are ongoing and will soon be handed over to our moderators for rigorous testing ensuring the service reaches new heights of reliability and usability before its wider rollout.

⚙️ Plugin Updates

To maintain a robust and reliable network, the following measures have been implemented:

Automated Deactivation – Node operators inactive for more than 7 days will now be deactivated.
Validator Stability – Validator nodes that are stalling or have low balances for 2–3 days will be temporarily deactivated. This ensures the network remains stable and highly available.
Oracle Feed Validation – We have automated our oracle feed validation system to continuously monitor price data integrity across data feed pairs. This system validates each price feed against external APIs, previous round ID, and oracle node submissions, tracking round progression and flagging any anomalies that exceed our validation parameters.

🤝 Visionary Leaders Visit SPARK Office

We had the pleasure of hosting Ewald Struggl and Thomas Krennbauer (visionary leaders and entrepreneurs from Switzerland), along with Nicola Zovi (Advisory Board Member – Plugin (PLI), XDC’s Decentralized Oracle) at Sharjah Research, Technology and Innovation Park.
It was a highly productive session where we showcased the innovative capabilities of the EquitEdge Marketplace platform in the Real World Assets (RWA) tokenization space. The insights shared were invaluable, and their positive feedback has energized our mission to push boundaries in decentralized innovation.

🧠 Food for Thought

In the evolving world of tokenized assets, accessibility is only meaningful if accompanied by responsibility. Opening investment opportunities to more participants transforms markets, but it also demands new forms of governance and risk awareness. How do we ensure that decentralized platforms empower users without creating unintended vulnerabilities? True innovation emerges when technology not only expands reach but also strengthens accountability, making digital ecosystems safer, fairer, and more inclusive for everyone.
