All Digits- New Snapshot Strategy

GM ENS Community,

I am pleased to share my new snapshot strategy with the Digits community, which I hope will empower specific digit communities to make better use of snapshot technology. It is titled ens-all-club-digits strategy and has now been officially merged by the Snapshot.org team.

What is a snapshot strategy? Snapshot offers default functionality to their voting spaces, including being able to add 1 vote per nft, or 1 vote per address on a whitelist. But for something like an ENS club with a certain pattern such as a 4 digit number, a custom snapshot strategy needs to be programmed.

The 10k club strategy has been active for a few months now, and used for 3 major votes in the community. I helped push this strategy to the finish line by helping with code review and communications when it was coded originally by developer Aox.eth. This strategy is creating a combined token weighted vote for the 999 club and 10k club digits. As the months progressed, it was evident that the digit communities for 3,4, and even 5 digits or more needed their own separated votes. In the new council that we are building at the 999/10k club, we need to be able to vote with 999 and 10k separately for their own representatives. Given these needs, I dived back into the code to create something all new along with the help of the snapshot.org developer team.

What we did was create a single group of voters, not combined - where any community can pull this strategy to use for themselves. So the 999 can use the strategy with “3 digits”, the 10k club can use the strategy with “4 digits” , the 100k club for 5 and so on. As there is a big following behind 7 and 8 digit numbers in the OG clubs, this was also a consideration. This one strategy can therefore accommodate the different communities by changing the number of digits in the configuration.

In the process, we made this snapshot strategy more memory efficient, and also solved an issue which will allow for holders of more than an 1000 ENS names to vote without an issue as well. Anyone can use this strategy to build their own digit clubs, this way we can continue growing stronger as one ENS and Digits Family, regardless of language or club affiliations.

This snapshot strategy will be used in our upcoming 999 specific and 10k club specific council votes, we will be setting up new pages for this and announcing when things go live in the coming week or so. If anyone needs any help integrating this snapshot into their own club, feel free to reach out to me. I am currently exploring adding extra filters like “starts with” or “palindrome” to target even more specific clubs, that may be added to this one or to new strategies in the future. As we build these technologies out as a community, our utility will increase and help us push ENS forward to the masses.

I am my digits and my digits are me,
