Polkadot just pulled off what is the most insane cross-chain application yet. Cross-chain chain state migration. An application that migrates the state of one chain (Polkadot Relay), accounts, code balances etc to another chain (Polkadot Hub) Truly historical feat
AHM UPDATE: Account migration complete. 1.6 billion DOT migrated from 1.5 million accounts. ➡️Items processed: 1,512,216 ➡️Failed: 0 https://t.co/KK1R7JMvcw

The media cannot and must not separate itself from the destiny of truth. Transparency of sources and ownership, accountability, quality, clarity, and objectivity are the keys to truly opening citizens' rights for all peoples.

Today everything changes: the first government launched a national data ownership initiative, so the citizens of Brazil have the first chance to be compensated for consensually shared data. Another huge win of very many to come! #OwnYourData @DrumWaveInc

There are no easy answers in this space, and a lot of problem solving is ahead of us…
Disappointing to see leaders of the ethereum community unwilling to acknowledge what's wrong with the chain and blame underperformance on "people are dumb and don't get it" Ethereum has real problems right now and that's what's weighing on price. Maybe those problems are
