Replacing the Relay Chain

Polkadot is considering a major upgrade called JAM and it would simplify Polkadot's design and make it more like Ethereum for developers. JAM will replace the relay chain with a more modular, minimalistic design, and permissionless future. The only way to interact with JAM will be with DOT, and no new token will be issued.

The Polkadot community will now decide if they want to adopt JAM through the following referendum: Proposal for JAM Ratification, Conformance, Performance by Polkadot Fellows.

Cheers! ๐Ÿบ

They call me a-not-so-Dr. Wavin Good. Blockchain architect by accident, an aspiring music-visualizing maestro, a chef of slightly-burnt midnight ramen, and my love for beer is as bubbly and persistent as a hard fork on a Friday night.

Co-founded Ethereum, birthed Polkadot, and still chases shiny tech like a Bitcoin-hangover canary with a crypto itch.

I don't pretend to have all the answers, friends. This blockchain lark is a messy business, like wrangling cats in a mosh pit. But hey, at least the beer's always cold, the code keeps me warm, and who knows, maybe one day we'll build a future where everyone can raise a glass to a decentralized pint of freedom.

Cheers! ๐Ÿบ
