👤 Gavin Wood has set a new direction for Polkadot. Now, @gavofyork's focus shifts from pure infrastructure to products people use. Just in time before the arrival of smart contracts at the Hub 😉 In his latest chat with @TheKusamarian, Gav outlined a roadmap centered on a human-centric economy built on Proof of Personhood. So, @paritytech plans to build and ship flagship apps to drive adoption and create real on-chain demand for DOT. We’ll also see new teams shipping on Polkadot Hub via the DeFi Builders Program by Velocity Labs (@v_labs). Among them, the first cohort: • Joinn ( @JoinnFinance ) - A financial platform to empower the underserved in Latin America by integrating spending and investing. • SigilSafe -A privacy-preserving platform to bridge the gap between traditional estate planning and the digital asset economy. • WinCoins - Creator-first prediction market that allows anyone to instantly launch and resolve markets based on real-time events. • Koni Finance - A unified trading and token launch ecosystem native to Polkadot Hub, connecting Ethereum, Arbitrum, Bitcoin. • TidalX - A next-generation, perpetual trading platform (Perp DEX) designed for mass adoption. Let's see how the @Polkadot ecosystem evolves in 2026 now that the major updates that kick off this new stage are almost complete^^
