# Phase 1: Protocol Foundations (Q1 2026)

This is where Motion xAI begins to take shape as a system.

* TGE: $MDEV token launches via Pineapple Express.
* Hardware v.1: our first miniaturized wireless sensors move from prototype to manufacturable design.
* Specialist-led data annotation begins, building research-grade datasets that will fuel AI training.
* First on-chain signals tested, proving the link between raw motion data and Web3.
* $MDEV staking launches, bringing governance and community alignment in from day one.
* Data-for-Token Pilot: early users start earning tokens by contributing training data.
* Onboarding ambassadors: sports stars, athletes and more.<br>

This phase lays the economic and technical foundation for everything that comes next.
