Thank you to everyone who submitted their project to Round 2 of Cadence Cup. We, again(!), were extremely impressed with all the projects that were submitted this round.

Check out these projects ASAP! The playground will be updated with breaking changes on Tuesday, April 21 (PST), which means if you want to run these projects yourselves, do it today before it is too late!

Some of the amazing projects from this round include: 

• WittyKitty, Dennis, Kittypad and Queen Cryptoria created a contract that allows artists to put their art up for sale. Voters can pledge their money as votes for the art they think will sell, and their votes give them fractionalized ownership of the art when it sells. 
• alxo.city | hte.eth and natealex designed a resource-oriented ranked-choice voting smart contract that allows voters to rank their preference of the proposals they are voting on. 
• Daniel designed a Cadence implementation of the Academy awards voting system, where academy members are allocated votes based on their role in the academy. 
• Rico designed a private version of the voting tutorial contract, protecting the results of the vote from being seen by anyone before the administrator reveals the results. 
• Avcd made two really promising submissions! The first is a voting contract that allows voters to divide their vote into percentages based on their preferences. The second project is a showcase where users can display their NFTs so that others can vote and like them. 

A big congratulations to the winners: WittyKitty, Dennis, Kittypad and Queen Cryptoria for their Art Voting contract. The thoughtfulness that went into this project was off the charts. Their design of the mechanism for art voters to receive fractionalized ownership of the art they vote on is powerful as it incentivizes voters to help promote the art to establish its selling price.

This team made excellent use of resources in this project. They were able to separate important roles and functionalities into specialized resources that are handled in different ways. This form of voting can be utilized in real digital art sales.
