Polkassembly is the platform that allows token holders to participate in governance. It is a web-based application that makes it easy for token holders to vote on proposals and learn about the latest governance discussions.
Through https://cere.polkassembly.io/ it is possible to see all of the past referenda run on the network. Cere Network also runs proposals to upgrade the network and puts them up for debate.
Users can use their Polkadot{.js} extension to log in into Polkassembly to start interacting with the Network.\

Understanding Polkassembly and Its Significance:
Decentralized Governance: Traditional systems usually have a centralized entity making decisions. Polkassembly breaks this mold by handing the reins over to its user community. This decentralized approach ensures that a diverse range of voices is heard, reducing the risk of single-point failures or biased decisions.
Transparent Process: In many systems, the decision-making process is opaque, leaving stakeholders in the dark. With Polkassembly, every vote and proposal is recorded on the blockchain. This ensures that anyone can verify the process, increasing trust among users.
Inclusive Participation: The beauty of Polkassembly lies in its inclusive nature. Any user holding the required amount of the platform's native cryptocurrency can not only vote but also propose changes. This mechanism empowers even the smallest stakeholders, promoting a truly democratic platform.
Future-Proofing with Blockchain: By leveraging on-chain voting, Polkassembly ensures that the voting process isn't just transparent but also immutable. Once a decision is made and recorded on the blockchain, it cannot be altered, ensuring integrity in the decision-making process.
Empowering the Cere Network: As the main governance platform for the Cere network, Polkassembly plays a pivotal role in shaping its future. Whether it's protocol updates, new features, or fund allocation – every major decision is routed through this platform, making it a linchpin in the network's evolution.
Limitations
