Utilization of @Bifrost Liquid Staked DOT (vDOT) is at an ATH.

vDOT allows holders to participate in Polkadot-based DeFi, while still collecting staking rewards.

🎄 A Christmas-GPT Poem to Begin the 12 Months of DOTmas 🎄 #AI

Twas the season of DOTmas, and all through Web3,
The Polkadot ecosystem buzzed with glee.

From developers coding with passion and care,
To communities thriving and dreams in the air.
Twelve months of progress, innovation, and cheer, Polkadot’s 2024—an unforgettable year!

So grab your eggnog, your DOT socks, and sing,
As we count down the highlights each day will bring.
From January’s spark to December’s bright glow,
Each month of DOTmas reveals what we know:
A year full of milestones, connections, and play,
Polkadot’s brilliance lights up every day 🌟

So come, fellow nerds, with your hearts open wide,
Celebrate DOTmas with blockchain pride.
For Polkadot’s story is one we all share,
A network of progress beyond compare.

Merry DOTmas to all, and stay tuned for month one! 🎁

Spotlight on Hyperbridge

Imagine a multi-chain universe where assets + data move trustlessly across networks with near-instant confirmation, all without relying on a committee of trusted parties 💭

Hyperbridge—the first trustless, verifiable bridge—makes it possible.
Hyperbridge’s goal is to enable the full potential of a multi-chain Web3 world 🌎

→ Connects Polkadot with Ethereum,Optimism, Arbitrum, Base, BNB, and Gnosis.

→ Leverages cryptographic proofs and decentralized consensus to bridge without centralized middlemen.

→ Powered by Polkadot’s economic security (~$7.5B). Consensus and state validation are cheap, scalable, and secure.
How does it work? 👀

Hyperbridge acts as an “interoperability coprocessor.” Instead of verifying complex proofs directly on-chain (costly and slow), the heavy lifting happens off-chain.

The results come back as small, easily verifiable proofs — kind of like doing intensive math on a supercomputer and just handing the answer to your smartphone.

Power by Proofs ⚙️

Consensus Proofs: Confirm finality of state updates.

State Proofs: Verify data authenticity from any blockchain’s storage.

Fraud Proofs: Detect malicious behavior, ensuring Byzantine-fault tolerance.
…And if you’re curious

→ Devs can use Hyperbridge’s SDKs (Solidity & WASM) to build cross-chain DEXs, lending platforms, rollup-bridging solutions, and more.

→ Future releases will further reduce costs and integrate advanced proof schemes.

Polkadot Ambassador Program: Everything You Need to Know!

NeuroWeb adds 2.4M Knowledge Assets in November, another ATH.

@NeuroWebAI is an AI blockchain secured by Polkadot, designed to incentivize knowledge creation & connectivity through Knowledge Mining. Miners get rewarded for contributing knowledge and trusted data to the AI.

Perfuse, by @0xZeeve, makes deploying a Polkadot chain even faster 💨

With it, builders have the power to spin up an L1 secured by Polkadot in only a few clicks.

Dive into the details, from automated workflows for managing coretime to real-time monitoring and more 👇

Zeeve is an infra automation company working on an open-source deployment solution for Polkadot, @kusamanetwork, and Rococo networks called Perfuse.

The Perfuse toolkit is designed to simplify launching, managing, and scaling chains, saving builders precious resources.

Toolkit Features:

⚙️ Automation & Low-Code Configs: web-based interface for launching chains with customizable setups

📊 Management & Monitoring: real-time monitoring console with Grafana integration for system and network metrics

⛓️ Coretime Integration: automated workflows for coretime management and marketplace compatibility ( @RegionXLabs, @lastic_xyz )

⚡️ One-Click Deployments: scalable templates for multiple environments and compatibility with block explorers and indexing protocols

🔒 Security & Flexibility: DDoS protection, node encryption, and customizable EVM-compatible setups

Perfuse will continue developing in phases focused on setup, automation, customizable configurations, and monitoring. Zeeve also plans to make the toolkit fully open-source and continue improvements via community contributions.

Not their first rodeo 🤠 The team behind the project is led by Co-Founders @rpchamria, @GhanVashishtha, and Sankalp Sharma, who bring a ton of technical expertise and experience delivering rollup deployment/management solutions in Web3.

For more info, follow @0xZeeve and check out their DF Grant announcement.
