According to ChainCatcher, Manta Network co-founder Victorji.eth publicly criticized the Polkadot ecosystem on Twitter, calling it a "highly toxic" ecosystem that lacks real value for Web3 and does not focus on users or adoption. As the founder of the largest TVL and market value/FDV project in the former Polkadot ecosystem, he said the team has completely turned to the Manta Pacific project because the Polkadot ecosystem is basically "dead."
Victorji.eth also accused the Polkadot team of discriminating against Asian developers, pointing out that European and American projects receive far more funding than Asian projects. He encouraged developers to turn to more active ecosystems such as Solana, Ethereum, and Bitcoin.
