The Next 10 Years of Polkadot ($DOT) - The Polkadot Second Age

Okay guys, so the Porcel Subzero event already have taken place. Here I have the t-shirt. This is from 2 years ago maybe in Bangkok. The first in Bangkok. But today we're going to talk about the main points from the last edition in Buenosiris Argentina in 2025. The beginning of Polo as project, the eco, the founding and all of this started almost 10 years ago already. Back in 2016, all code began with a simple question. What would Ethereum 2.0 look like if we designed it from scratch? The answer basically become a new architecture. A web assembly based eterogenous multi-chain system. A bium powerful enough to host not just apps but entire digital societies. Over the last decade, polit tech works with apps processing real world volume at the scale. But cabin message is clear now. Cor is not longer enough. If web3 wants millions or billions of users, we need something more. Storage, messaging, peer-to-peer identity and products people actually use every day. That leads to polot nest era. The main point of this new era of polo is that parity the main company behind polode where well where works all the core engineers are shifting their focus from protocol engineering to products to ship real products that the people actually use every day. >> There is a change. The first 10 years was about core tech. The second 10 years is about infra and product >> in naming systems, user agents, mobile apps and a complete polal as Gavin says in his talk where is going to be like the center of all these efforts. A key piece of all of this is the project individuality. That's it. A privacy preserving way to recognize unique humans without geometrics, phone numbers, ids or something like that. used cryptography, game theory and physics. This enables proof of personhood, fair rewards, better security and large scale on boarding. Everything all of this without central authorities. Gavin called all of this out second age. The first 10 years service to build the network. So the next 10 years are to bring the movement and ship that products that the people actually use every day. So the takeaway of this is that in 2026 we are going to start to see parity shipping new products around polot and I think that the main products are going to be deployed around polot half and well this was the main talk and the main takeaway maybe from the polo subzero of this year but there were a lot of more projects who were there to speak about their new road maps their new updates Let's share a screen and let's talk a little bit about all of this. And here guys, we are seeing right now the profile of Polout Subzero on X Polout Subzero. And here you can check basically the timeline with all the derivated content from the event, some talks, and the announcement of the winners from the different tracks of the hackathons. Hey, highlights. Here are some reports from Open Guild for example. K highlights from Gavin Good Subzero Kote and well here you have all the timeline with all the media and different pictures from the event. Later in the timeline of paralups here we posted some clips from the main talk from Gavin good like compiling all the main concepts which were shared in the in the talk like well for example this clip telling about the that today in the web three people who have a self sovereign wallet is a few hundred,000 and that is not every 1 million and much less one billion of users. That is the goal to host on on this technology know and we are still far from that and in the end polot we are building on pork out and yam and all this new age to reach that billion of users later the main thread from the event we have here one from Alisop and as I talked to you before from protocol to product to people for 10 years PC code was about how the world could work now we are building what the world will use. That's cool slides from the from the talk and from the main points are also about the pol which will be the portal to all of those products. Uh this is what we mentioned before also on the introduction of the video and at the center of all of this is Paul called people all these new mechanisms that allows you to have individuality on chain without doing any kind of KYC phone number online identity blah blah blah the products will emerge through 2026 and well and well this is a cool fast compilation from the talk later we have here one screenshot by Alison Bob which show us the Polout app in action. This Polot app, remember, is going is going to be basically this portal half of Polot that we mentioned before in the introduction of the video. And this is so cool because this application has already chat and sending money both on chain on chain. You already know that one particularly thing of P code is that we try to to board every action that you can do on chain. That's the main point all of this. No, that's why all these years and years building the infrastructure and the protocol and and all this complex technology. After this video guys, I'm going to leave you in the description in the first comment pin and in the second tweet if you are watching this on Twitter, I'm going to leave you the link to the channel of Poladot where they have a compilation of all the main talks. Not all of them, but yes, the main ones that were streamed in the live in the main stage. Here you have the full keynote by Gavin. One talk by the guys from it mandara chain. The people from energy web origin trail. This one talking about the vision of yam which is also very cool. And this other for example about hyperbridge the game theory of the centralized interperability. This can be very cool to watch also by the way. And one about nump. Uh well this is maybe some some stuff a bit too much technical but this is cool. So yeah guys the polo subzero of this year ended 2025 is going to end very soon and let's have a lot of hope and some hype despite market or whatever things outside. Let's have some some hype for the new products and and new announcement that are going to come on 2026 because this second age maybe is like this is only the beginning. We are starting this new road map for the next 10 years. This is already not even the year one. The year one is starting in 2026. So thanks for watching and see you on the next video. Bye-bye.
