 - Run tests: pytest
 - The MVP demonstrates basic delta application and deterministic replay across two adapters.
 
+## MVP Roadmap and Next Steps
+- Extend verifiable primitives: formalize end-to-end audit logging with hash-chains and signer provenance.
+- Delta-sync protocol: add version vectors, cryptographic hashes, and bounded-latency replay across partitions.
+- Privacy primitives: expand secure aggregation and local DP budgets with per-message tagging.
+- GoC registry improvements: richer contract schemas and per-message metadata for replay protection.
+- Cross-venue MVPs: wire two starter adapters (price feed and simulated venue) over TLS with end-to-end delta-sync.
+- Governance ledger: anchor mutations to a public hash and maintain auditable history.
+- KPI dashboards: delta-sync latency, audit-log coverage, adapter conformance, and privacy-budget adherence.
+- Documentation: toy contract sketches, two-adapter MVP spec, and onboarding guide for contributors.
+
+If you want, I can generate a concrete toy contract sketch and an MVP spec for 2 adapters to bootstrap the integration.
 Notes
 - This is a minimal, MVP-focused subset intended to bootstrap the broader SignalVault vision.
 - See signalvault/ for the core primitives and demo adapters.
