Matchain unveils its roadmap for Q3 2025 through Q2 2026, showing how $MAT is moving from token to tool, powering payments, identity, and access across fintech, live events, DeFi, and cultural platforms, with MatchAI making it simple enough for anyone to use.
August 27, 2025 – Matchain today announced its roadmap for the next four phases of growth, laying out how $MAT will evolve from a tradable asset into infrastructure people rely on every day. The rollout combines fintech integrations, live event activations, DeFi access, and global expansion, anchored by MatchAI, an AI-powered personal guide that ensures the ecosystem stays human, usable, and accessible.
Each phase of the roadmap builds on the last, culminating in a fully connected system where $MAT functions across fintech apps, live events, digital identity, and DeFi.
“We’re building more than just a blockchain, we’re building the participation layer that connects how people spend, prove who they are, and access real-world experiences”
Petrix Barbosa, CEO of Matchain.
Introducing The Participation Layer
Most blockchains are optimized for transactions. Matchain is optimized for people.
With MatchID, anyone can prove they’re human without KYC and use that proof to unlock access, earn recognition, or prevent fraud. Paired with $MAT, those actions connect across the ecosystem, from checking into a concert to accessing digital services or joining a DeFi program.
This foundation is already operating at scale. More than 1.9 million verified participants are active today, supported by over 32 million wallets. The network now handles around 3.3 million transactions every day and has already surpassed 836 million in total.
While other blockchains chase speed, Matchain is built for something bigger: trust, access, and the people behind every wallet.
How $MAT Expands Over the Next 12 Months
Phase 1: Lighting the Fuse
We unveil MatchAI as major fintech app integration opens access to millions of new users, while key exchange listings expand liquidity and visibility. MatchID goes live at sports events, offering fans verified, ticketless entry powered by on-chain identity.
Phase 2: Utility You Can Touch
Matchain launches its native DeFi suite, including stablecoins (mUSD, mEUR), a decentralized exchange, and reputation-based lending pools. $MAT enters mainstream usage with the launch of a crypto banking card, enabling real-world spending directly from on-chain accounts. The Global Fan Identity Program begins onboarding sports and entertainment audiences at scale. A tokenized real estate portfolio unlocks on-chain access through $MAT staking. Physical products embedded with NFC chips connect digital identity with real-world items and perks.
MatchBank loyalty tiers also go live in this phase — rewarding long-term stakers with upgraded banking benefits, higher limits, and exclusive perks.
Phase 3: Everyday Habits
MatchID expands to new leagues and entertainment platforms, enabling a single digital identity across multiple experiences. Chip-enabled merchandise and event gear become widely available. DeFi products backed by real-world assets open to mUSD and mEUR holders. $MAT becomes part of how people interact with both digital and physical experiences — without needing to think about the tech underneath.
Phase 4: Going Global
By Q2 2026, Matchain begins scaling across regions including Europe, Asia, and Latin America. Expansion efforts will bring $MAT and MatchID into new markets through cultural events, local activations, and platform integrations tailored to each community. As adoption grows, $MAT listings on top-tier exchanges will help position the network for broader institutional and global access.
Building the foundation for mass adoption
The next 12 months are designed to shift $MAT from passive holding to active participation, giving people the tools to spend, prove, earn, and engage across Web3 and beyond.
“This roadmap brings $MAT into people’s daily routines. From buying coffee and entering concerts to earning yield and accessing global platforms,” said Barbossa. “It’s the foundation of a more connected, usable Web3.”
