WOM Protocol Development Update: August 2021
At the forefront of the excitement is the progress on the brand new BULLZ app which is slated to launch next month and the YAAAS NFT marketplace which launched on a testnet at the end of June.
BULLZ
BULLZ is a social recommendation app built exclusively for the crypto community. BULLZ provides trusted, authenticated community information and education about projects, tokens, exchanges, events, and everything else crypto.
BULLZ uses the WOM Protocol to peer-review and authenticate recommendations which is especially needed in an industry riddled with scams and shills. Creators are rewarded with WOM Tokens for their honest, authentic recommendations.
The the integration of the WOM Protocol in BULLZ also prepares the WOM Ecosystem to easily integrate additional social networks, ecommerce websites, and other platforms.
YAAAS
YAAAS is an NFT marketplace enabling creators to monetize their talents and communities directly on the platforms they already love to use. We’re excited to launch on the mainnet next month with NFTs from huge artists and influencers.
Currently YAAAS includes opportunities for creators on TikTok and Spotify and additional use cases with YouTube, Twitch, Instagram, Discord, and more will follow.
Changelog
Despite the recent heavy development focus on BULLZ, the WOM development team continued tirelessly with further improvements and updates on the WOM backend, WOM Authenticator app, WOM Campaign Manager, and YAAAS NFT marketplace, as well as the YEAY backend and app.
Below is the list of commits, changes, and new and refactored lines of code. If you pay attention to the changes across all the projects, you will notice that there is a significant increase in the amount of refactored code. This is due to our emphasis on improving the quality of the WOM products. We also refactored all our projects to up the level of security, speed, and performance of our technology. Onward and upward!
