Engineering Update

This week saw continued progress across both the Minima protocol and the wider Integritas ecosystem.

A major milestone has been reached with Minima Core, the lightweight version of Minima designed for hardware and embedded deployments. Following completion of the beta phase, Minima Core is now in closed testing.

During this work, the team has also identified an alternative application architecture that extends beyond traditional MiniDapps. Rather than relying solely on browser-based applications, developers can build native applications and services, such as Android APKs or Windows services, that interact with Minima using the operating system's own inter-process communication mechanisms. This opens up new possibilities for deeper integration with devices and operating systems while retaining Minima's decentralised capabilities.

The team has also made progress on one of the ecosystem's longer-standing technical challenges: Key Uses. A potential solution has now been identified and validated at a design level, with implementation work planned as the next step. If successful, this would represent a significant advancement in an area that has historically proven difficult to solve.

In parallel, development is continuing on a platform that will enable Integritas to run locally on low-powered devices, supporting more decentralised AI deployments and reducing reliance on centralised infrastructure.

Taken together, these initiatives continue to advance Minima's long-term vision of enabling secure, decentralised applications and services from cloud environments all the way down to edge devices and embedded hardware.
