Produced by the Polkadot Ecological Research Institute, it must be a boutiquePolkadot's one-week observation is a summary of what happened to Polkadot's entire ecology last week, and we will also share some of our observations on these events in the form of vernacular.Any project mentioned is not for investment recommendation, but for information display only.

Observation and Viewpoint

1. NFT drives the market boom, and Polkadot is also getting ready

Several major events last week were related to NFTs. One was the popularity of Axie Infinity, whose daily revenue was more than twice the daily revenue of the well-known Internet mobile game Glory of Kings, and Tencent itself has entered the Metaverse. In addition to investing in Roblox, the only metaverse concept stock with a market value of more than 38 billion U.S. dollars, it also obtained the agency right of Roblox in China. Today, Tencent's NFT trading software "Magic Core App" is officially launched. The first phase of the work is jointly produced by Tencent News and One-way Space. The unit price is 18 yuan for a limited edition of 300 pieces. The main content is the characters of the "Thirteen Invitations" program. The audio of the quotations, including interview recordings of Chen Chong, Hao Lei, Wu Guosheng, Chen Chong, etc. Since then, the two domestic giants, Tencent and Ali, have both embarked on the journey of NFT and Metaverse.

Although DeFi is still the easiest application direction to implement, NFT can be played out. After all, innovative financial products are much less than gameplay, and the expression and dimensions of games are much more than pure financial products. . Therefore, the fast landing and the start of the ecology depend on DeFi, but in terms of richness, NFT will definitely play an important role in the ecology.

Therefore, we should also pay more attention to the potential of NFT on Polkadot. In addition to being compatible with EVM, it can naturally apply to the current mainstream NFT protocol and allow NFT projects to migrate to Polkadot in a silky way. On the other hand, Polkadot is due to It is a brand-new architecture without the shackles of the EVM. It is easier to bring new possibilities if it is not broken. For example, there is an emerging NFT protocol like RMRK in the Polkadot ecosystem. It is not restricted by the EVM itself, and RMRK can be designed more easily. The set of multiple functions in one, comprehensive and powerful, worthy of deep digging by developers. We will continue to pay attention to the progress of RMRK, and analyze the changes that RMRK may bring to you at the right time.

2. The market rebounded strongly, but caution is still required

Recently, as a blockchain game once again became popular in the Metaverse, the enthusiasm of the market has returned a little bit, but the transaction volume has not increased much, which means that the wait-and-see mood is still heavy.

In fact, everyone can feel this rebound. Now the rhythm of the market is different from that of the bull market. In the past, when the big pie moved, other projects followed suit. This time, the big pie rose first and then moved sideways. At this time, other projects followed suit. This is what we call a structural market. Changes follow the sector, not all at the same time.

At present, as the more contagious Delta strain is raging in the United States, the epidemic situation in the United States has repeated again, combined with the situation that the US stock market fluctuates and rises at the top, the tightening of the monetary margin we mentioned before is likely to come later.

The following is the introduction of Polkadot Ecological News last week, please enjoy.

Thanks to PolkaWorld, the first Chinese community of Polkadot, and Blockchain Knights for their support of this article.

In view of the endless emergence of Polkadot ecological projects, but the inferior projects and scam projects are full of them, it is worthy of vigilance. On the other hand, it is difficult for groups only on the Polkadot project side to understand the whole picture of the entire ecological development of Polkadot, and miss many opportunities. Therefore, we decided to establish a Polkadot ecological group, which can openly discuss all Polkadot ecological projects. Everyone can objectively share their views on each project, understand the development of each Polkadot project, and exchange information to seize opportunities together.

Pay attention to the official account"Polkadot Ecological Research Institute", Reply to "Join the group", you can talk about Polkadot with many fans.
