Why are developers describing tiny Polkadot as the ($400 billion) Amazon Web Service of blockchain?

Scan 30 bullets about the worst kept secret in the next-generation blockchain.

• Discover why Warren Buffet’s #BerkshireHathaway owns more #Polkadot than you.

[THREAD]

• Why never compare Ethereum to Polkadot (even if #Ethereum leads the $9 billion #DeFi boom)
• The world’s most powerful blockchain scaling strategy: is this the code to finally unshackle 4 billion internet users from privacy abusing Google?

• The often overlooked feature that can see #Polkadot 10X before the next scandal bursts into the headlines about crypto forks!
• How investors on a London stock exchange are already generating “material revenue” from Polkadot’s DOT token.

• “Amazon Web Services Is Worth Half a Trillion Dollars,” says Barron’s. What does this valuation have to do with Polkadot?
• Ask the Chinese about the 1000% warning shot in $KSM.

• The #Polkadot Black Swan. The #1 reason why weak-hands will sell too early and commit the same mistake they made not buying bitcoin’s $3,500 dip in March!
• What did the British Government see in Polkadot as early as 2014?

• PLUS our complete list of 30 fundamental bullets about Polkadot and its native token $DOT (that most will never discover - until it's too late)

But first, do you agree with the next tweet?
Today, blockchains are built as silos.

Impenetrable fortresses. Powerful rivals, even enemy states that don’t speak each other's language.

While that model served a purpose, is there a downside? Isolated chains lack one secret proven to have grown the world's greatest empires!
CROSS-BORDER TRADE:

How did trade help the British Empire grow?

“... trade and empire went hand in hand, with a symbiotic relationship to each other. Growing overseas commerce with colonies stimulated merchants to provide ships and goods for expanding settler societies” - BBC
1/ INTRODUCING: The Polkadot Kingdom.

Founder Dr Gavin Wood co-founded Ethereum, @paritytech and is the brainchild of Ethereum’s Solidity Smart Contract, the heart of today’s $9 billion #DeFi boom.

Why start fresh with Polkadot?

(Has the brain left #Ethereum?)
2/ #Polkadot is "designed to be all of our lessons learned in building Ethereum,” says founder @gavofyork.

If he created Ethereum’ #SOLIDITY smart contract, here's an intriguing question:

Is Polkadot, Ethereum 2.0 PLUS, PLUS?

The smart money made their decision years.
3/ Started in 2014, Polkadot is the first (scalable) multi-chain trade route.

A unique protocol that seamlessly connects every fragmented blockchain economy on planet earth - through ONE central hub.

An architecture attracting the world’s best developers!

Here's why...
4/ #Polkadot does more than just facilitate traditional token transactions.

It has opened up a new economy transporting “any” kind of data across private/public blockchains and then allows seamless integration into an entirely new world of untapped riches - Web 3.0!
5/ Polkadot transacts on the blockchain “over” 100x faster than Ethereum and 300x faster than #Bitcoin thanks to a novel approach: SHARDING!

For us degens, sharding does to blockchain what turbo did to the Porsche 911 Carrera RSR: THE FIRST BEAST.

(Check that turbo glow)
6/ @DelRayMan with Forbes said “Big Blockchain: The 50 Largest Public Companies Exploring Blockchain.” (Link below)

Thing is, the top Fortune 500 companies can now launch on the blockchain quicker, cheaper and easier than ever before - but only with the power of #Polkadot.
7/ Is that why more and more developers say Polkadot is the Amazon Web Service of blockchain?

Before we answer, consider this: “Polkadot vs. ETH (2.0)”

Discover why the community believe Ethereum will always eat Polkadot’s dust (Link below)
8/ Ethereum founder @VitalikButerin was openly acknowledged for his contribution to the Polkadot white paper.

Ethereum’s blessing?

You decide.

Imagine what they can achieve as one mighty force:

#PolkaDefi is brewing-up a serious storm!

You better believe @jutta_steiner
9/ Is Gavin Wood’s “sharp knife” theory the secret to why the #Bitcoin network is struggling to scale?

This simple yet powerful concept has the brightest developers from around the world tripping over each other to code for the growing #PolkadotKingdom. (Video link below)
10/ Think Amazon (AWS):

In 2019 it generated $35 billion in revenue.

Barron’s estimates “revenue growing 31% a year to $140b in 2024… the value of AWS alone as $506b… more than current valuations of IBM, Oracle, and SAP— combined.”

What does this have to do with Polkadot?
11/ First. How did AWS become Amazon’s cash cow?

Clients no longer had to buy, build & maintain costly infrastructure/buildings and risk getting it wrong.

Instead, AWS dominated the cloud with a simple “plug & play” model. Clients launched online fast, cheap and hassle-free.
12/ Polkadot is shaking-up the blockchain world in the same way Amazon changed America’s retail space.

By making it fast, easy, and secure, #Polkadot provides an affordable and scalable blockchain solution to everyone from the newest start-up to a Fortune 500 company.
13/ Plug and Play Blockchain is here:

With Polkadot’s blockchain building team, @substrate_io and Kusama $KSM, “there’s no need to start a new blockchain from scratch” says @gavofyork.

Has #Polkadot finally built the long-awaited runway to mass-adoption?
14/ Allow Gavin Wood to demonstrate the coding power going into the $DOT ecosystem by launching a blockchain and updating it in 30 minutes, when it should take days, weeks and even months. (Video link below)
15/ Is that why Polkadots “wild cousin” $KSM rallied over 1000%?

“Kusama is an early, unaudited and unrefined release of Polkadot.”

Is this an early warning shot for what could happen towards Polkadot’s full network launch?

This is not investment advice, compare the facts:
16/ The Polkadot ecosystem is already firing!

Nearly 200 projects are building on its foundation: Defi projects, crypto wallets, tokens, infrastructure, Oracle, DAO, privacy, exchange, gaming, IoT, scaling and more.

Few know the truth about the rise of @chainlink...
17/ Will developers (the crazy ones) swarm Polkadot like they did with a favourite tool - the MacBook Pro?

“Polkadot makes it easier than ever to create and connect decentralized applications, services, and institutions… empowering innovators to build better solutions…”
18/ Tesla’s recent stock split was viewed as a “smart move.”

Stock splits make a company’s shares more attractive to retail investors.

Polkadot’s 100x token split was a community decision. A unique governance system exciting many. Proof that management is right on the money?
19/ Arthur v. Coinbase lawsuit:

Another example of why blockchain forks can be a real menace?

Problem solved:

“Polkadot can upgrade without hard forks to integrate new features or fix bugs... this enables Polkadot to easily adapt to changes and upgrade itself…” Fork you!
20/ The British Government funded portions of Polkadots “initial research into consensus algorithms.”

Could this see @gavofyork claim a spot as one of Britain's greatest blockchain innovators?

Hell yeah, @10DowningStreet are you listening?
21/ Still not convinced Gavin Wood can sprinkle similar magic over the $3 billion Polkadot that he used to turn Ethereum (and the Solidity smart contract language he invented) into another $43 billion monster?

Read on...
22/ Berkshire Hathaway owns 9.96% of The BNY Mellon.

They own 3.06% in blockchain and Defi investor @KR1plc, who announced:

“... the company has started generating material revenue from staking on the Polkadot network, KR1’s largest investment and portfolio holding to date.”
23/ Is $DOT about to do the unthinkable?

Could a little-known blockchain project become the best performing asset in Warren Buffet's portfolio?

2020 the year of surprises, right?
Imagine what Bloomberg, CNBC and @PeterSchiff say about that?
The Chinese believe it’s inevitable
24/ Rumour has it, three Chinese funds fist-fought for @polkadot tokens.

In July 2020, they raised $43 million in 3-days. Why China?

“Polkadot and Gavin Wood are highly regarded by the Chinese cryptocurrency community, who are heavily invested in this project” - @boxmining
25/ But why are the Chinese all over #Polkadot like a rash?

FACT: China is racing to become a blockchain world power.

Here are three major market moves to prove it - ignore these early signs at your peril!
26/ China’s BeiDou GPS satellite launch in June marked their rise to major space power.

China’s satellite network greatly improved on the US Air Force’s 30cm accuracy to an impressive 10cm bullseye. (Geopolitical big deal)

Which industry is China aiming to dominate next?
27/ China’s new digital Yuan is old news.

Few know: “China is developing a new type of interconnectivity. The Blockchain Services Network (BSN)... a national initiative to integrate adoption of blockchain technology across government, big business & emerging markets” - Forbes
28/ The new backbone of Chinese commerce? Blockchain!

1.4b people are getting digitally trained.

How much of China’s $13.37 trillion GDP is planned to pass through blockchain?

$DOT perfectly positioned as “one of the Chinese communities' favourite blockchain projects.”
Why?
29/ Guerilla Marketing:

“Polkadot has done the best in China. Maybe the best of anyone we’ve seen. You gotta get local. You can't outsource marketing teams” says China blockchain expert @mattysino

Great, but should we fear China dumping $DOT tokens?
30/ Depends on your answer to this next question.

Did you buy the $3,500 bitcoin dip on 13th March?

Any Polkadot Black Swan is a buying opportunity.

In fact, those who study the DNA of #Polkadot already have limit orders set.
DISCLOSURE: We have no affiliation with Polkadot. This is not a paid review but we are long (&strong)

Any sat’s earned from referral links will go straight into buying more $DOT from weak hands.
