A technical record – Polkadots (DOT) exudes health, in particular thanks to the work of the developers who ensure the scalability of the network.
Polkadot and Kusama: contributions and interoperability on an upward slope
According to data from GitHub, the daily number of daily contributions to Polkadot has reached a new all-time high. It exceeds, in fact, the 500 mark in September. The previous month, in August, Polkadot’s GitHub saw 14,930 developer contributions.
These data show that the maintenance and technical development of the multi-chain protocol therefore benefit from the support of a particularly active community of developers.
The level of efforts made to improve the ecosystem can also be assessed by referring to the amount of investment devoted to it. The treasuries of Polkadot and its experimental blockchain Kusama (KSM) funded the ecosystem spending proposals, to the tune of $72.8 million in totalunlocking:
- 9.6 million DOT;
- 346 700 KSM.

A vibrant crypto ecosystem
Other figures also bear witness to the dynamism of Polkadot, but on a more specific area, which is that of interoperability. 26,258 messages were sent between parachains in September. These stats are taken from XCM-related data. It is therefore the communication system allowing send information and tokens between parachains.
Today, Polkadot and Kusama matter 66 active blockchains. Over 140,000 cross-chain messages have been exchanged through 135 messaging channels since the inception of these networks.
As for the evolution and future performance of the ecosystem, the roadmap that the founder of Polkadot, Rob Habermeier, recently published mentions the deployment of asynchronous backing. This upgrade aims to increase processing speed on Polkadot and Kusama. It should then be between 100,000 and 1 million transactions per second.
Permet polka dots to tokens that decide to expand there, to seize the growth opportunities generated by interoperability. The performance of the DOT ecosystem should therefore not be measured solely on the basis of the evolution of its course, but also on the technical basis on which the project is based and which continues to strengthen.
