Follow the devs: The Eth ecosystem remains #1 in weekly commits @Polkadot remains #2 @cosmos ecosystem putting in strong work at #3 Polkadot and Cosmos have been building application-specific chains for years - great to see the appchain option gaining traction with dev teams.

Locked and idle crowdloan, staked, and Treasury-held DOT is not helping the DOTconomy. We need DOT to be collateralized, lended, borrowed, leveraged, LP'd to turn 1 DOT into 3, 5, 10+ DOT worth of value. Healthy debt/leverage is how economies are built. Example using $aUSD:

One of the biggest regulatory news in the history of crypto. $DOT is software, not a security.

Web3 Foundation announces @Polkadot 's native token DOT has morphed and is software, not a security! After 3 years of proactive engagement with the @SECGov , W3F announces a landmark step towards the achievement of Web 3.0, a decentralized, trustless, serverless internet.

Had a blast presenting an intro to @Polkadot and parachains at @token2049 in London a few weeks ago. Check out the 20 min presentation to learn all about Polkadot, along with a real world example of what @AcalaNetwork & @Current are building on Polkadot:

$USDT can now be natively minted on @Polkadot Appchains like @AcalaNetwork & @centrifuge , and general-purpose EVM chains like @MoonbeamNetwork & @AstarNetwork can now integrate native USDT into their parachain and/or DApp ecosystem alongside substrate-native $aUSD Step by step

When @ethereum 2.0 inevitably needs an upgrade, is there any way to upgrade without the mess of forking the network? I wonder if ETH2 could just use @substrate_io for forkless upgrades. @Polkadot has upgraded 40+ times without a fork. It’s as easy as updating an iPhone App.

Enjoying Crowdloans? Liquid KSM staking with $LKSM will be used to participate in Crowdloans without losing KSM staking returns: 1. Stake $KSM, get LKSM 2. Mint $kUSD with the LKSM 3. Swap kUSD for KSM 4. Use new KSM for crowdloans 5. Pay back loan after 1yr on @KaruraNetwork

The market severely underestimates the Polkadot SDK @substrate_io and it’s forkless upgrades due to the technical complexity involved. A great awakening is on the way.

No matter the blockchain, everyone in crypto is on the same team and every blockchain's success/challenge is the shared success/challenge of the industry. We just need to keep working hard, supporting all builders, thinking long term, and continuing to change the world.

Parachain slot auctions and the “Crowdloan” mechanism are NOT a fundraising event. All $DOT contributed to parachain candidates are locked in a contract for 2 yrs and cannot be touched by the parachain team. You’re simply supporting a team’s bid to earn a slot to launch.

The @KusamaNetwork and @Polkadot networks are both multi-chain networks that will each power 100+ parachains. The networks will be bridged soon after both are launched, so all parachains/dapps will be fully interoperable. Both will also bridge to $BTC, $ETH, ERC20s, etc.
