Observation and Viewpoint
Entering March, the temperature is gradually warming up, and the frequent good weather indicates that spring is getting closer to us. Let's take a look at what major events happened in Polkadot Ecology last week.
The first is the progress of Polkadot and Kusama. At 03:55 on March 4th, Polkadot opened the 11th Parallel Chain Slot Auction; Mangata has won the 26th Kusama Slot Auction, and the Kusama Parallel Chain Slot Auction is currently two potential parallel chains without identity authentication. Competition between chains to bid for slots with direct bids since none of them go through Crowdloan.
Last week, Gavin Wood, the founder of Polkadot, explained the past, present and future of Polkadot on the media platform. After years of hard work, now that Polkadot has laid the foundation for becoming layer 0, multiple layer 1 chains and their decentralized applications can flourish.
In the future, Polkadot will become the infrastructure of Web3, a set of technologies that can guarantee privacy, trustlessness and decentralization. He also said it would be key to the survival of the free world.
Gavin Wood's many speeches in the media centered around the theme of "Polca is future-oriented". Gavin hopes that Polkadot can become a multi-chain kingdom and a decentralized application platform.
In addition, on March 24, Jonas Gehrlein, a researcher at the Web 3 Foundation, will give a speech on the theme "The Economy of Polkadot Ecology" at the Polkadot Zurich meetup in Zurich, Switzerland. It is worth mentioning that this speech focuses on the economic mechanism rather than the price. This will be a good opportunity to understand Polkadot and Kusama.
It can be clearly felt that the frequency and intensity of Polkadot’s official publicity are increasing.
Polkadot’s official Twitter followers at the end of last year were 1 million, and now nearly 200,000 new fans have been added in the past two months alone. The rapid growth rate can be seen. Polkadot’s consensus is much larger than we imagined. And these consensuses will play a major role in fueling the ecological development of Polkadot.
In addition, Parallel Finance, which is committed to bringing more liquidity to the Polkadot and Kusama ecology, has currently completed the cDOT of the first four projects that Mint won in the second round of slot Auction; as a currency market, Parallel has finally decided to offer a heavy Products, 6 important new products, including AMM, Farming, and Liquid Staking, will be launched on the Kusama parachain on March 17, aiming to establish the basic currency market in one fell swoop.

Unlike Moonbeam, Astar, also a smart contract platform, is exploring the direction of cross-chain. Astar announced that the main network has added a cross-chain bridge function, allowing users to transfer Ethereum assets to Astar. Currently, assets worth 100 million US dollars have been bridged from Ethereum, Binance Smart Chain and Polygon to Astar.
As the Polkadot slot Auction enters a stable state, more and more parachains are launched on Polkadot. Although the entire market environment is seriously affected by the macro economy and continues to slump, the current parachains are actively developing themselves in different directions. ecology. Just like the economic cycle, when there is a fall, there will be a rise. The silent development of the Polkadot ecology will surely usher in the dividends of the cycle, and the current accumulation will bear fruit at that time.
