### 🔮 What’s Coming After Launch

Once the protocol goes live, we’re planning on rolling out a series of upgrades and ecosystem features designed to expand capabilities, improve user experience, and drive adoption.

#### 📅 Months 4–6: GBM Auction Aggregator Platform

A unified interface showing **all live GBM auctions** across deployed auction houses.\
Easily discover, monitor, and bid - all from one clean, central view.

#### 🛠 Months 6–8: NFT Minting Tools for Auction Houses

Every GBM auction house will gain **built-in NFT minting functionality**, allowing creators to mint, list, and manage assets directly from their admin panel - no external tools required.

#### ⛽ Months 8–10: Gasless Bidding Infrastructure

Deployed auction houses will be able to enable **gasless bidding**.\
This removes the need for native gas tokens, lowers friction, and improves accessibility for new users.

#### 🔁 Months 10–12: Multichain Token IOU System

A cross-chain coordination layer for $GBM tokens, ensuring **balance consistency** and unlocking **future multichain staking** and reward flows.

#### 🌐 Months 12–14+: Gasless Cross-Chain Bidding

A major UX upgrade: users will be able to **bid across chains without switching wallets, RPCs, or tokens**.\
One wallet, seamless bidding, full ecosystem access.

### 🧑‍💻 Community-Governed Upgrades

Alongside our planned roadmap, the GBM Protocol will also open up opportunities for the community to actively shape the future of the ecosystem. Offering various opportunities to the community to vote on the planned developments as well as propose their own features and upgrades.
