In 2023, the crypto space is doing precisely the same thing as it has in all previous years: new innovations are driving the technology ahead, and only the sky seems to be the limit.
There has been a lot of hype around artificial intelligence (AI) recently, with applications such as ChatGPT and many more that enable people to create art, music, videos, and anything else without requiring exceptional expertise. So it comes as no surprise that this topic is also seeking a position in the blockchain. But is it all real? Or is it just hype (for now)? Or will this be the next bubble? We'll see...

For certain, the whole cryptocurrency market has known just one direction in the last several weeks, and that is upwards (especially projects that can be associated with AI in whatever way). Are we in a bull market again and is a little cooling down just around the corner? Or is this merely a massive bull trap before everything falls again? The opinions differ greatly. Certainty exists, however, that with competent risk management and technical analysis skills, you may have earned substantial gains (check out Ookiversity).
For competent developers, though, this is irrelevant; they just perform their jobs and push forward development. And the same applies to Ooki. So let's discuss what's happening here right now...
Frontend Updates
1. General Updates
- Enabled the dashboard to take advantage of wider screens to display more content (preparatory work for more functions).

- We are on the lookout for new partners/platforms to collaborate with for AMAs, interviews, PRs and so on. (Let us know if there is a platform where you would like to see Ooki.)
- Redesign of the Ooki logo and changes to existing advertising and information material due to copyright disputes. But seriously, it's muuuuch nicer now.
So, lots of stuff, right? RIGHT? Give us feedback on TG or Discord and let us know what you think.
