DOT/PLN : convertir Polkadot (DOT) en Polish Złoty (PLN)

Polkadot (DOT) is an open-source multichain protocol that aims to connect and secure a network of specialized blockchains. It facilitates the cross-chain transfer of any data or asset types, not just tokens, thereby striving to make blockchains interoperable with each other. Polkadot is designed to support a decentralized web, controlled by its users, and to simplify the creation of new applications, institutions, and services. The Polkadot protocol can connect public and private chains, permissionless networks, oracles, and future technologies, allowing these independent blockchains to trustlessly share information and transactions through the Polkadot Relay Chain. Polkadot’s native DOT token serves three clear purposes: staking for operations and security, facilitating network governance, and bonding tokens to connect parachains.

Polkadot operates through four core components: the Relay Chain, Parachains, Parathreads, and Bridges. The Relay Chain is the heart of Polkadot, creating consensus, interoperability, and shared security across the network of different chains. Parachains are independent chains that can have their own tokens and be optimized for specific use cases. Parathreads are similar to parachains but with flexible connectivity based on an economical pay-as-you-go model. Bridges allow parachains and parathreads to connect and communicate with external blockchains. The network uses a nominated proof-of-stake (NPoS) mechanism with validators and nominators to secure the network. Validators are staked on the Relay Chain and confirm transactions coming from the different parachains.

Polkadot aims to provide a foundation for a decentralized internet of blockchains, also known as Web3. It can connect public and private chains, permissionless networks, oracles, and future technologies, allowing these independent blockchains to trustlessly share information and transactions. This makes it possible to build applications that get permissioned data from a private blockchain and use it on a public blockchain. For instance, a school’s private, permissioned academic records chain could send a proof to a degree-verification smart contract on a public chain. Polkadot's sophisticated user-driven governance system allows all token holders to have a vote in how the network is run, enabling a more democratic and inclusive approach to blockchain governance.

Polkadot is the flagship protocol of the Web3 Foundation, a Swiss Foundation with a mission to facilitate an open-source, fully functional, and user-friendly decentralized web. Polkadot’s founders are Dr. Gavin Wood, Robert Habermeier, and Peter Czaban. Wood, the president of the Web3 Foundation, is known for his industry influence as an Ethereum co-founder, Parity Technologies founder, and the creator of the smart contract coding language Solidity. Habermeier is a Thiel Fellow and accomplished blockchain and cryptography researcher and developer. Czaban is the former Technology Director at Web3 Foundation, with a wealth of experience across highly specialized fintech industries. At the end of 2021, Polkadot successfully concluded its first Parachain auctions, assigning the first five slots to the auction winners: Acala, Moonbeam, Astar, Parallel, and Clover.
