Polkadot releases 2025 roadmap: upgrade cross-chain messaging and shorten DOT unlocking waiting time

Here is the English translation:

1. Smart Contracts: Asset Hub adds support for EVM and Solidity, while PVM provides a lightweight, secure, and scalable solution.

2. Elastic Scaling: The multi-core architecture increases capacity to meet the growing on-chain demands.

3. XCM v5: The upgraded cross-chain messaging will take interoperability to new heights.

4. Unified Address Format: Polkadot and all Rollups will use a single address - more simplified and efficient.

5. Faster Unlocking: The waiting time for DOT unlocking is reduced, providing a better user experience.

6. DOT as a Universal Gas Token: Support for gas fee payment in Rollups - DOT becomes the universal gas for Web3.

7. JAM SDK: New tools for developers to easily build scalable services.

8. SAFROLE Technology: Block production using zkSNARK technology for performance optimization.
