Polkadot gains 8% as the Agile Coretime upgrade introduces dynamic resource allocation for network efficiency.
Agile Coretime reduces developer costs by allowing on-demand block space purchases.
Polkadot’s market cap surges to $6.44 billion, with trading volume increasing by 18.46%.
Polkadot has registered an 8% price surge following the release of "Agile Coretime," a critical element of the Polkadot 2.0 upgrade. This upgrade is set to boost the network’s capacity, performance, and usability, drawing renewed attention from both developers and investors.
Agile Coretime Enhances Network Efficiency
According to an official post via the X Space, Agile Coretime introduces a new approach to resource management within the Polkadot network. Unlike the previous system, which used auctions to grant block space through two-year leases.

Agile Coretime employs a fluid model for allocating computational resources based on network demand. This dynamic method aims to make block space more accessible, reduce costs, and enhance efficiency during periods of low and high network activity.
This upgrade, a part of the larger Polkadot 2.0 roadmap, is expected to increase the overall functionality of the network. It complements other features like Asynchronous Backing and Elastic Scaling, which will prevent the overcharging of unused resources during low traffic and ease congestion during high network activity.
The Agile Coretime update presents a major improvement for developers. The new model allows projects to purchase block space on demand, eliminating the need to commit large amounts of DOT upfront.
