As #ETHDenver '23 kicks off this week, now’s the time to check out all the events at the conference involving Polkadot parachains and other teams in the ecosystem👇
2/ @peaqnetwork announced the release of peaq control, a dapp that works as the command center for devices, robots, and vehicles and acts as a portal to Web3 and the Economy of Things.
5/ @SubsocialChain has introduced Post4ever, a way to protect tweets and other digital content from being censored or removed from Twitter by copying them to the Subsocial blockchain.
6/ @Unique_NFTchain announced a collaboration with @Subsquid to provide Unique Network with dev-friendly advanced data tooling features, including an indexing toolkit to extract and process on-chain data.
7/ @Kiltprotocol has introduced AssetDIDs and public credentials live on KILT Spiritnet. AssetDIDs work as permanent identifiers of any digital asset which allows anyone to link public credentials to any asset on any smart contract or any blockchain.
8/ @AstarNetwork announced the Astar Peers Program, aimed to incentivize community members to run nodes in regions that currently have no nodes, a process that will help ensure Astar increases decentralization.
9/ The @polkadex testnet parachain Kaizen was successfully onboarded to Rococo. This paves the way for testnet XCM connections to other parachains and testnet listings of DotSama tokens on Polkadex Orderbook.
10/ @oak_network and @MangataFinance have launched the XCMP/HRMP capabilities of the Turing Network to offer auto-compounding of LP rewards on the MangataX DEX.
11/ @origin_trail has brought its multichain AI-grade Knowledge Assets to Polkadot, helping #Web3 teams leverage the benefits of the Decentralized Knowledge Graph within their own blockchains.
13/ The Polkadot ecosystem is coming to #ETHDenver '23!
Check the teams & projects represented at the Polkadot booth, sign up for the "BUIDLing the Multichain" summit, and discover community side events happening in Denver.
1/ Since the launch of Polkadot's staking dashboard and nomination pools, staking participation has skyrocketed on Polkadot, seeing 1500 new users every month.
Check the blog for the latest updates for the staking dashboard and staking on Polkadot: dot.li/aLhS4
2/ Introducing on-chain pooling of staked DOT, nomination pools increase the accessibility of native staking allowing holders to earn rewards with as little as 1 DOT while maintaining ultimate control and ownership over their assets.
3/ The improvements you can already try out on the dashboard improve user experience, such as a real-time countdown timer showing the time remaining in the current era, so that you know when rewards are paid out.
1/ Check out the first #PolkadotRoundup of 2023 to see the latest news and announcements from Polkadot’s parachain teams, ecosystem projects, wallets, and infrastructure providers.

2/ @AstarNetwork announced an integration with @Coinhub_Wallet granting Coinhub users access to the Astar ecosystem:
3/ @CelerNetwork has integrated Celer IM, the inter-chain messaging framework, into @AstarNetwork and @ShidenNetwork ecosystems. This allows Astar devs to build inter-chain native dapps which can leverage diverse multi-blockchain ecosystems.
Despite the difficult year for the industry, the Polkadot and Kusama community were busy building the largest, & most diverse ecosystem of use case specific layer-1 blockchains in the world, making huge strides toward building a better web.
2/ With 74 parachains, 300+ dapps, 550+ projects, and 2500 monthly active developers across the ecosystem, the Polkadot community has accomplished an incredible feat in just a little over 1 year since parachains went live, and is continuing to grow.
3/ Following the launch of XCM (Cross-Consensus Message), the Polkadot ecosystem kicked off a new era of secure cross-chain interoperability, sending more than 350,000 XCM transfers, a big step towards unlocking the magic of secure cross-consensus bridging to the world.
1/ Curious about what's happening in the Polkadot ecosystem? Here’s the latest #PolkadotRoundup to get you up to speed on the key news from the ecosystem and the latest big dates for your diaries.

2/ @AstarNetwork keeps moving the Japanese gaming industry towards Web3 by providing safety & reliability for @oasys_games:
3/ New HRMP channels have opened between @AstarNetwork & @InterlayHQ. This allows interBTC (Interlay's 1:1 Bitcoin-backed asset) to enter the Astar DeFi ecosystem in a trustless and secure way:
1/ Everyone loves a roadmap, right? Well guess what — Polkadot founder @rphmeier has shared some exciting insights into proposals for a series of major upgrades.
2/ Asynchronous Backing will cut the block time for parachains down to 6 seconds from 12 and increase block space by 5-10x, hugely enhancing scalability.
This will increase the amount of work every chain can do AND optimize network performance, allowing scope for more parachains
3/ It’s estimated this will take the transactions-per-second capacity of the network to between 100k and one million without affecting security.
Asynchronous Backing could be ready for deployment on @kusamanetwork by the end of 2022 and then on Polkadot, pending audits & testing
2/ Nomination pools are now fully supported in the staking dashboard and you can test-drive the feature on Westend and @kusamanetwork 🙌
The pools will soon be enabled on Polkadot and then the staking dashboard will be ready for you to create, join and manage pools
3/ All nomination pools are natively hosted on-chain and are part of the Polkadot runtime, so they are upgradable, secure, and fully embedded as part of the Relay Chain.
So what else can you do beyond joining or creating a pool? Let’s break down some more of the features
