The Week in Polkadot: Web3 Foundation Backs Decentralized Storage

Welcome to Decrypt’s Week in Polkadot, our regular round-up of the latest developments in the Polkadot ecosystem.

At the Token2049 conference in Dubai this week, Polkadot co-founder Gavin Wood introduced a graypaper outlining the Join-Accumulate Machine (JAM), billed as “a proposal for the future of Polkadot.” In a “major revision,” the JAM protocol would replace Polkadot’s Relay Chain with a “more modular, minimalistic design,” building a permissionless object environment akin to Ethereum’s sma...

Billionaire Frank McCourt: 'Dodgy Cryptocurrencies and Silly NFTs' Have Spoiled Blockchain's Narrative

Speaking at Web Summit 2023, McCourt noted that his own project, open internet protocol or Decentralized Social Network Protocol (DSNP), was not tokenized. "Dodgy cryptocurrencies and silly NFTs are not the same as core technology that can actually help make the internet better for us," he said, adding that "the narrative has been spoiled somewhat."

Polkadot Project Manta Network Rolls Out Privacy-Centric Soulbound Tokens

Due to the inherent transparency of open blockchains, the team at Manta was to address one of the main concerns of cryptocurrency projects today, privacy. “The problem we are trying to tackle here is so that verification is only limited to certain on-chain activities, rather than share all data to an app,” Manta Network co-fou...

How Polkadex is Addressing the ‘Bottlenecks’ of Decentralized Exchanges

If you want to buy or sell crypto, you either go to a centralized exchange (CEX) run by private companies like Binance or a decentralized exchange (DEX) like Uniswap that runs on code and is non-custodial. If you’ve used both, you’ll know they feel really different. CEXs are typically based on an orderbook model, where you see a list of sell and buy orders by other traders against whom you trade. Meanwhile, DEXs run on a technology called automated market makers that rebalance liquidity pools–pi...

But although it's achieved much success in its seven-year history, Ethereum has become relatively expensive to use and struggled to become scalable. Thus, rival developers have slung their rifles over their shoulders, taken aim at Ethereum, hummed "Fly Me to the Moon" and squeezed the tri...
