12. Infrastructure Prerequisite Plan

12.1 Purpose

The infrastructure prerequisite assessment answers a question that is often overlooked in market-entry analysis: not whether the use case is viable in theory, but whether the conditions for execution are in place in practice. An entry play that depends on prerequisites that are missing, uncertain, or dependent on another workstream should not be recommended for immediate resource deployment, regardless of how compelling the theoretical opportunity appears.

12.2 Prerequisite Categories

Each regional entry playbook will include a prerequisite status matrix classifying the following items as Met, Partially Met, Unmet, Unknown, or Dependent on Another Workstream:

Prerequisite Category	Assessment Criteria	Dependency Route if Unmet
Stablecoin availability and liquidity	Presence of a stable-value instrument with sufficient liquidity for the use case transaction volume	RFP 03 — Stablecoin Liquidity workstream
Local off-ramp access	Ability for users or institutions to convert on-chain value to local fiat currency	RFP 03 / RFP 08 — Delivery Partner network
Wallet UX and account abstraction	Whether non-technical users can access the solution without requiring crypto-native knowledge	Product workstream / UX development
Mobile-first or offline capability	Whether the solution can operate on basic mobile devices with intermittent connectivity	Technical product requirements
Privacy and selective disclosure	Whether the use case requires privacy primitives not currently available or requires further development	Technical roadmap / RFP 06
Identity and KYC infrastructure	Whether identity verification requirements can be met within the local regulatory framework	Local regulatory pathway / identity partner
Local delivery partner capacity	Whether an implementer capable of building, deploying, and supporting the solution exists in the region	RFP 08 — Enterprise Delivery Partner Network
Compliance artifacts and SLA documentation	Whether the necessary compliance documentation and service level agreements exist for the institutional or public-sector context	RFP 06 — Enterprise and RWA Readiness Assessment
