# Roadmap Step 1

#### Step 1. Laying the Foundation

This quarter is all about getting the basics right.

* We’re running a private test version of the exchange, just with ETH and BTC, to make sure the hidden-order system (privacy feature) and batch trade matching works smoothly.\ <br>
* We’re putting in place the first version of our safety system that ensures traders can’t take on more risk than they should.\ <br>
* We’re also setting up a price feed system so the exchange always knows the real market price of assets.\ <br>

In short: we’re building the “engine room” of Opal and testing it behind the scenes.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.opaldex.com/roadmap-step-1.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
