PIVX Labs

It's 2025, PIVX Labs has grown, and so should our plans.
The Labs Vision is our eternal mission, as the builders around PIVX, to empower the world's people with it's technology in a deliverable, portable, easy package.
Let's dive in to what exactly the Labs Vision means for PIVX.
Note: The majority of this post is excerpts from the internal Labs Team 2025 discussion, consolidating our ideas and efforts in an organised, efficient manner.
PIVX, in my words, was made to '... put privacy, safety, and identity in to the hands of all..', a universal goal that everyone under the PIVX umbrella can agree upon.
And similarly, in my eyes, Labs is the group that "forges" these ideas in to reality, a vision and a mission is good - but Labs is what builds PIVX's Mission, we lead in portability, onboarding, and the utility of PIVX as a currency.
All this to say... if PIVX's mission is to '... put privacy, safety, and identity in to the hands of all.., and SpaceX's mission is to '... make human life multi-planetary by sending people to Mars.'...
Then PIVX Labs' Mission is to Build a parallel economy, reachable anywhere in the world.
Our projects, listed below, are how we are going to achieve this.
Labs' projects were chosen for very particular reasons, because they all slot together in a perfect master-puzzle; that is, the PIVX parallel economy.
Everything combined?
You can earn, save, spend with PIVX, and you can communicate safely without compromise, with family, friends and businesses.
As such, I believe Labs now has the necessary projects and components needed for the PIVX Parallel Economy, we should now bunker down.
I've proposed and found majority consensus upon the below plans, with the structure incentivising a deepened Parallel Economy for PIVX.
My PIVX Wallet:
PIVCards:

Vision and Goals
PIVX, in my words, was made to '... put privacy, safety, and identity in to the hands of all..', a universal goal that everyone under the PIVX umbrella can agree upon.
And similarly, in my eyes, Labs is the group that "forges" these ideas in to reality, a vision and a mission is good - but Labs is what builds PIVX's Mission, we lead in portability, onboarding, and the utility of PIVX as a currency.
All this to say... if PIVX's mission is to '... put privacy, safety, and identity in to the hands of all.., and SpaceX's mission is to '... make human life multi-planetary by sending people to Mars.'...
Then PIVX Labs' Mission is to Build a parallel economy, reachable anywhere in the world.
Our projects, listed below, are how we are going to achieve this.
Where our projects stand in the Labs Vision
Labs' projects were chosen for very particular reasons, because they all slot together in a perfect master-puzzle; that is, the PIVX parallel economy.
- My PIVX Wallet: at the center of everything we do: the be-your-own-bank, bank.
- PIVCards: the ability to spend with - and even live on - PIVX as a currency.
- PIVX Rewards: the ability to earn PIV for time & tasks, our onboarding portal.
- Vector (prev. Chatstr): the ability to communicate safely with anyone in the world - a Trojan Horse to bring PIVX to the masses, by competing with Telegram.
Everything combined?
You can earn, save, spend with PIVX, and you can communicate safely without compromise, with family, friends and businesses.
As such, I believe Labs now has the necessary projects and components needed for the PIVX Parallel Economy, we should now bunker down.
What's next for Labs in 2025?
I've proposed and found majority consensus upon the below plans, with the structure incentivising a deepened Parallel Economy for PIVX.
My PIVX Wallet:
- Multi-Everything: full multi-account and multi-masternode support, including Ledger.
- One-Click Setup: it is necessary that we make "setting up MPW" as FAST as possible, because facing reality: if you're at the bar learning about PIVX, you won't be writing 12 words on paper anytime soon.
- Shield By Default: we've discussed the possibility of having Shield-by-Default, making transparency opt-in instead of opt-out, this would use a relay system
shield->temp-transparent->receiverto remain compliant with all non-Shield services, WITHOUT user interaction and WITHOUT integration compliance necessary. - Modularity: we've discussed the possibility of making MPW more easily utilisable by external softwares - this has MANY possible usecases, such as giving Vector the ability to integrate MPW for in-chat transactions, or making it easier to integrate PIVX with POS systems, without needing to re-implement another PIVX wallet from scratch - one core backend, hundreds of frontends.
PIVCards:
- Non-Custodial: PIVCards will become fully non-custodial - this may lead to a temporary reduction in features, but in the long-run, allows for the potential of fully open-sourcing and decentralising PIVCards.
- Multi-Provider: PIVCards needs to allow plug-n-play style provider integration, allowing near-unlimited PIVX-accepting services to be integrated.
PIVX Rewards:
- The Onboarder: this platform needs to become the #1 spot for bringing new people to PIVX, with 'appetizers' of free PIV for everyone that wants it, and more for those whom stay and contribute.
- Non-Custodial shift: with
PIVX Promoslibraries improving, we can now create decentralised codes very quickly in bulk, as such, we should start utilising this tech to make PIVX Rewards semi-non-custodial, meaning: no more hot wallets, only pre-filledPIVX Promosdistributions, straight to MPW - in the broader timeline, we may even disbandPIVX Rewardsin favour of a largerPIVX Promossystem, which would be a preferred outcome. - Business Offerings: as discussed by the community, PIVX Promos may be very useful for onboarding businesses to use PIVX, by using PIVX as a 'loyalty' and 'cashback' system, in a decentralised, yet easy method.
Too long? Here's the TL;DR:
PIVX Labs aims to build a global parallel economy with PIVX at the forefront.
Our four main projects will unify efforts to achieve this: wallet (banking), cards (spending), rewards (earning), and messaging (communication).
Our 2025 plans focus on making everything easier to use, and more business-friendly while prioritizing privacy and non-custodial philosophy by default.
