@giottodf There was 3 proposals. 3 proposals for funding Ded. Everytime you came back to get more and now you are rug pulling the community. You can give back the dots that you got from the treasury. Just do what everyone told you from the beginning, without scamming the treasury.

Exactly what I would like to see on Polkadot. UIs should not be chain specific. The user should not be required to know where are their funds. Show the entire balance and transfer the funds as required with XCM. We already have most of the stuff, we just need to use it.
@jon_charb Synchronous atomic composability is very overrated imo. Like, think about what are some specific cross-L2 things *you* are already doing or envision yourself doing that could be more seamless. For me, the top two are:. 1. I have coins on Optimism, I want to pay Bob, but Bob is.

Smol update on the generic ledger app/metadata hash verification: TLDR: Should be in a release for the production networks around end of june. @Polkadot @kusamanetwork.

Maybe we should just pack up our stuff. Rename web3 to unregulated casino and move on.

I also checked some logs of @Polkadot validators and everything looks fine. Looks like @DotOrdinals is not pushing hard enough ;).
The sad thing is that people are finally spamming @Polkadot and the block is still pretty empty and can't even trigger the tx fee adjustment algorithm. .

Whoever wants/needs to hear this. In a decentralized system it doesn't work to wait for some central entity to appear that solves all the issues. If something is not done the way, YOU think it should be done. Stand up and improve whatever you don't like.

Sending an upward message from a #Parachain to the relay chain to transfer tokens on the relay chain. (left sending transaction from Parachain, right Parachain account on the relay chain tokens get deducted) @polkadotnetwork #cumulus

However, we have now tested all the steps that will be used on @kusamanetwork and on @Polkadot to migrate them to #coretime. So, this will make it quite easy next year to migrate the production chains. Stay tuned! :).

I have written a small blog post explaining how human-readable (for sure not yet understandable by yours and my grandmother!) works on Polkadot and all their chains.
It’s not an issue with rich transaction semantics. @Polkadot transactions are substantially more powerful than Ethereum’s yet we still have secure and definitive human-readable descriptions *on the cold device*. See Polkadot Vault and signed metadata.

Nice to see that others are following the footsteps of @Polkadot in fighting blind signing:
As we’ve seen once again, blind signing poses a significant security risk and is one of the main barriers to non-custodial finance. Most contracts still don’t leverage EIP-712, either because it takes too much work to implement or because the generated text is too hard for users

Did someone say cosmos parachains?. If you need help implementing proper rollups that do not take 7 days to may be final or require that you own a dedicated server farm, you know where you can find me to explain you the @Polkadot source code ;).

Not sure if people realize that, but you can not just copy code. You actually need to understand how it works to fix issues and to do modifications. I don't know anyone working for @enjin that has contributed to core parts of Polkadot.
7/. Q: What's the Enjin Relaychain?. A: It's the base of the Enjin Blockchain, handling security, node sync, and block validation. Built on the Substrate framework, it's post-Ethereum and ensures quick, low-cost transactions. It keeps updated with Polkadot but develops uniquely.

We are searching for some moderator for the @Polkadot fellowship meetings. Who wants to do this lovely cat herding? The call will be every month on the third Thursday at 4PM CET and it will be open for the community. @TheKusamarian @alice_und_bob 👀.

Not your keys, not your rollup 👀.
GM Degens,. After careful consideration—since it affects the community most—we’re sharing our difficulties in migrating DEGEN L3 away from @conduitxyz services. They've held our rollup keys hostage for months, and we may need to relaunch a new chain.

@GregusJakub @kukabi_ This. No need to wait for anything. No one else is doing this. Others are selling stuff which is barely working. Let's be proud on what we have now and sell it now and not tomorrow. Tomorrow it can only get better ;).

I started writing some tutorial/article some months ago, but did not finished it. Now I finally sat down to finish it. Hopefully it will be useful for some people:

Hopefully not only cross chain, but hopefully also cross ecosystems!.
If you're not excited for JAM you should probably watch this. Im not in the polkadot ecosystem but the technology behind JAM will unlock new ways of developing in a cross chain world.

Yeah PAPI is great and offers a nice experience, especially for people like me who have never touched TS before.
Loving the work of the smoldot, PAPI, Substrate Connect and Kheopswap teams - a match made in heaven. Truly slick, pure light-client effortlessly cross-chain Web3 experience, only on @Polkadot.

@rossbulat The treasury is an investor. Probably the biggest. The treasury even paid for the foundation. Calling this pivoting is just denieing the facts. How much of the distribution gets the treasury? Why not give the entire 30% for the "team" to the treasury.

@GregusJakub @hydra_dx @AstarNetwork I thought this is the way it works? You copy stuff from Polkadot and then give it a new fancy name. Abracadabra you invented something new 🤯.

Big question, small answer: Yes. The performance is much better measured in block size per second and computation per second. This should make a good comparison between different blockchains.

Okay, what? 🙃 Please tell me again that XCM is complicated 🫠.
IBC has a surprisingly large "protocol surface area", with many layers of consensus-critical behavior:. - the message formats.- the paths those messages are stored at.- the events that trigger relayer actions.- even the error messages (💀). All of these have to match exactly!.

@lolmcshizz @Polkadot With elastic scaling you get multiple cores on the relay chain, which enables you to put more data into a block. What I have done here is to bring down the latency, while still allowing you to include the same total amount of data into one block.

We made it :).
Polkadot is live!. “Polkadot allows every coder to also be a businessman. They just place an algorithmic service online and it's a self-sovereign, autonomous, economically strong business. The world, in some sense, belongs to coders.” –– @gavofyork.

The same applies to Eth users. With snowbridge we are as close to eth as any L2. While the bridge is not secured by 3 random people. UIs can move eth as any Polkadot native token now. @hydration_net pioneering this.

There is no right or wrong. For sure some people will not like what you do, but for them the same applies. Just complaining doesn't help, action is the only thing that helps and leads to improvements.

@gadikian @alice_und_bob @imcryptohustler @cosmos @Polkadot @kusamanetwork Polkadot can already validate any kind of chain. Since the beginning. The only requirement polkadot has is that you have a function exposed that is called `validate_block` with specific parame and rvs and your code compiles to wasm. Then you can let it validate whatever you want.

@lolmcshizz @Polkadot Not really elastic scaling. It actually puts 12 blocks into one PoV. So, this just requires async backing. With elastic scaling plus even more work the blocks could be made bigger.

People should be aware that not @paritytech will decide on what is @Polkadot 2.0. The version used for the Parity node is loosely connected to the "Polkadot version". Generally this version is only used to make it easier to communicate with users.

As we all love proposals, here my proposal:
Remove 10 Head Ambassadors and execute a 100-day plan!. 21 Head Ambassadors is too much. The program didn't get anything done yet. We need a smaller & effective team that leads the way! We have developed a 100-day plan to finally get started!. Read more:.

. @alice_und_bob @GldnCalf I hope you noted down some of the topics. I personally would like to see some of these discussions on the fellowship call ;) Maybe we should do some Sub0 debrief fellowship call to talk about some of the technical and social things.

@rphmeier @guinnessstache @alice_und_bob There will also be a more readable version coming next year 😅 But in world where the Glühwein drinking ape programmer is pushing the fixes on a Friday evening while almost every body is already out, the communication is not the greatest 😂.

A good proposal for a real developer console. It looks good, expose all the basics that are required and will probably support more specialized views in the future. My only critique is that it build on top of pjs, but hopefully only for the first MVP and changes in the future.
Thanks for those who tuned in live for Developers, Consoles and Polkadot!. We will post an edited version of the stream soon and wrap up what we announced in an easy to digest thread. #Polkadot $DOT.

After spending almost two weeks to debug this nasty bug, I finally could solve it. In the end a simple `sort()` was required to solve the underlying bug: No compiler bug or whatever, just a lot of stuff that fell together that wanted to trick me!.

Treat @Polkadot like a computer. Every parachain is just a different daemon with different features. Write one application that uses the different features of these daemons. Different applications can combine these daemons to handle different use cases.
One full page in just ~100 LoC: multi-chain, light-client, and more 🔥. No other DApp DevEx comes close 👌. #Polkadot

It is getting real 🙈.
The first real-world functional parachain Statemine, began processing permissionless transactions after an on-chain upgrade last week. After some smooth running over the weekend, the time has come to move to the next stage: slot auctions.

@rphmeier @dominik0_ @SachaL__ @theAlbertoV19 I created a guide on how to integrate it and also asked for feedback. I backported the extension 12 releases to support all active parachains to make it as easy as possible to upgrade for them. If you need more, please tell me.
