Three [principles](https://leios.cardano-scaling.org/docs/strategy#principles) guide the implementation strategy: First, **early validation** of critical assumptions and risks enables discovery of fundamental problems as early as possible in the development cycle and reduces the likelihood for wasteful pivots and delays in delivery. Second, the implementation must progress through **continuous delivery** of increasingly capable prototypes rather than attempting to build the complete system in isolation. This allows for empirical validation at each stage and enables course corrections based on observed behavior. Third, **transparency** in both capabilities and limitations must be maintained throughout, ensuring that stakeholders including stake pool operators and delegated representatives can make informed decisions about deployment readiness.
