1. Introduction

The construction industry suffers from fragmented communication, inefficient coordination, and limited transparency between trades, contractors, and clients. Bildlist solves this by creating a centralized digital environment where every trade and professional can be found, reviewed, and contracted directly.

Bildcoin extends this model by introducing tokenized incentives and transactions—creating a digital economy that rewards verified work, reduces middle-man fees, and builds trust through blockchain transparency.

2. The Bildlist Ecosystem

Bildlist is a SaaS platform that centralizes the construction industry's professional network.

Users can:

• Discover and hire verified trades and contractors.
• Post and manage projects with visual portfolios.
• Track permits, documentation, and compliance requirements.
• Communicate directly between property owners, developers, and trades.

Bildcoin integrates into this ecosystem to reward engagement and enable on-chain value exchange.

3. Problem Statement

Despite technological advances, construction remains one of the least digitized sectors. Key issues include:

• Lack of transparency between trades and clients.
• High intermediary and referral fees.
• Limited verification of work quality or licensing.
• No incentive structure for verified professional contributions.

Bildcoin addresses these by introducing a decentralized reward and payment mechanism inside the trusted Bildlist network.

4. Solution: Bildcoin Utility

Bildcoin introduces a blockchain-based value layer to the Bildlist platform.

Core utilities:

5. Blockchain Selection

Polygon (MATIC) was chosen for its:

• Low transaction fees (critical for micro-rewards).
• High security (secured by Ethereum's consensus).
• EVM compatibility for seamless integration with Bildlist's Rails backend.
• Scalability supporting large transaction volumes without congestion.

Proposed Distribution:

Earning BILD:

Professionals earn BILD through verified participation:

• Supplier Listings: BILD for each category listing or verified partnership
• Referral Rewards: Inviting new verified users to Bildlist
• Milestone Badges: Consistent engagement rewards

Utility of BILD:

• Subscription Discounts: Redeem BILD for partial payment toward subscription renewals
• Marketplace Visibility: Spend BILD to boost listing prominence

Deflationary Mechanism:

• Burn Policy: 10% of all BILD spent on visibility boosts or NFT badges is burned, reducing total supply over time

• Reward Halving: Reward supply halves every two years to prevent inflation
• Buy-back Strategy: Continuous buy-back from subscription revenue (optional long-term strategy)

7. Governance and Treasury

A Gnosis Safe multisig manages the treasury, ensuring transparent and multi-party authorization for token distributions.

Future stages will introduce community governance, allowing verified Bildlist professionals to propose and vote on reward models or platform features using BILD.

8. Security and Compliance

• Smart contract built with OpenZeppelin audited libraries.
• External audit prior to mainnet deployment.
• Treasury managed through multisig wallets with transparent on-chain records.
• Compliance review for KYC/AML and exchange listings.

9. Integration with Bildlist

Bildcoin seamlessly integrates into the Bildlist backend (Ruby on Rails):
