Yesterday’s Kusama runtime upgrade delivered two major leaps: → Block times slashed from ~6 s to <2 s via Elastic Scaling → Revive: a unified smart contract platform running PVM & EVM Solidity contracts can be deployed unchanged, and devs can use familiar Ethereum tooling.

Once again, the year's @polkadot roundup is out. Get it while it's hot 🔥🎄 medium.com/polkadot-netwo…

Gavun $WUD is $DOT on steroids 🚀 🟢 +122.9% in 7d on CoinGecko

🚨 Polkadot ( $DOT) is now top 2 in developer activity. I think with your support, we could easily reach 1. 📈

A new year. A new focus. → Products that matter, built on the strongest foundation in Web3. Welcome to the Second Age of Polkadot.

Smart contracts are landing on kusama. What’s included: • Unified EVM + PVM smart contracts • Deploy unmodified Solidity • Familiar Ethereum tooling (Foundry, Hardhat) • Elastic Scaling Kusama first. Polkadot next. 🔗kusama.subsquare.io/referenda/624

2026 is about products. That required finishing the infrastructure first. In 2025, Polkadot 2.0 was completed, with the launch of: → Agile Coretime → Asynchronous Backing → Elastic Scaling This week, we’ll look at what each one actually enables.

2026 is shaping up to be the year of @polkadot JAM. Not because of promises. Because builders are shipping. 🧵 1/

In the past two weeks alone, we’ve seen 15+ independent JAM implementations submit their Milestone 1 deliveries. Different languages. Different teams. Same protocol. That’s not normal in crypto. Check for yourself: github.com/w3f/jam-milest… 2/

What excites me most isn’t the number. It’s the diversity: - Java - TypeScript - Python - Zig - Elixir (we! jamixir) - Rust …and more JAM is no longer theoretical — it’s becoming multi-language by construction. 3/

This is how real infrastructure is born. Not from one “official” client. Not from marketing decks. But from many teams independently interpreting the same spec — and converging. 4/

Web3.0 was coined in April 2014 by Parity CEO Dr. Gavin Wood (Gavin Wood), not as a slogan, but as a technical response to a broken trust model. CoinDesk republished the original piece on Jan 4, 2022, as the term regained momentum. On Jan 6, 2026, Web3 is no longer a theory.

I promise you’re not bullish enough!! Polkadot leads all altcoins in bullish sentiment for a reason Polkadot 2.0 +The Hub + JAM Delivering raw performance. Not hype. Not padded stats.

Has been a while since I've given an update so here's a breakdown of where Sappy is at right now and what we're focusing on going into this year. Pre-amble: With altcoins & NFTs the market is definitely not the same as it was before. I think this is obvious to everyone but I've

The second pillar of Polkadot 2.0 is Asynchronous Backing. It introduced "pipelining" → processing multiple stages of a task simultaneously by breaking it into smaller steps. While one block is being verified, the next is already being prepared.
