# Building Bullish Together

The past week has been primarily dedicated to family, leading to a short pause in active development.

While no new features were deployed, this provided valuable time for reflection on the project's trajectory and future governance.

WE own the BlockyBulls
----------------------

Since launching BlockyBulls, development has centered on creating small applications, companion collections, and tools to increase collection visibility.

As the creator holding 500 NFTs, building these extensions felt like a natural progression.However, I don’t see it getting more visibility moving forward.

Would love to transition from individual decision making to community governance.  
Several decisions about the collection's future require broader input from token holders.

For instance, in the past, when seeking verification on Rarible, questions about licensing arose (_checked today and it seems this requirement doesn’t exist anymore_)  
Still considering CC0, but such decisions should involve the active core community rather than a single voice.

Building a Voting System
------------------------

**𝕏** polls might seem like an expedient solution for community decisions, but they lack permanence.  
Onchain voting provides a verifiable record of community decisions, allowing future reference and learning from past choices.

I highly value this as it becomes particularly important as the project grows and might face similar decisions over time.

Existing voting platforms like [JokeRace](https://www.jokerace.io/) all have the same primary issue, the hesitation of community members to connect their wallets to unfamiliar third party contracts.

What I look for is a system with a voting cards and anonymous voting that would be developed by the BlockyBulls.

I started developing something this Sunday on both the smart contracts and website integration for this new voting system, with the goal of launching the first community poll next week.

This system will enable progress on various initiatives, including the potential transition to fully onchain NFTs.

Technical Updates
-----------------

Recent website updates included functionality to generate BlockyBull images based on specific characteristics and being able to download it.

However, the download feature currently faces compatibility issues with wallet embedded browsers.  
Tested on MetaMask and Coinbase.

While I tried some solutions, none worked for now.  
I’ll focus on the voting implementation and come back to it right after.

Base Community
--------------

Nothing will happen here for BlockyBulls…  
Bangkok is currently hosting major blockchain events, including [DevCon](https://devcon.org/en/) and the Based Around The World Meetup.  
After missing the early sales, the DevCon tickets became quickly cost prohibitive for my budget. So I’ll not be able to attend this year.

Registered to the Based Around The World Meetup, but seems like space limitations led to prioritizing Base SEA builders and event participants.  
Next time we’ll have to ship a project for the event.

Overall this is about to be an exciting week for the space, can’t wait to follow that!

Future Development Approach
---------------------------

The voting system represents a crucial milestone in BlockyBulls' evolution.  
It will likely be the last major feature implemented without prior community consultation.

This transition marks an important evolution from centralized development to community driven growth.

While strong leadership remains vital for project success, sustainable advancement requires active participation from the core community.  
The upcoming voting system will provide the infrastructure needed for this new chapter of collaborative development.

Stay tuned for more updates, and prepare to play a more active role in shaping the future of BlockyBulls.

Stay Bullish Always! 🤝🐂
