Polkadot (DOT) is a technology built to connect blockchains and transfer tokens and data between chains. Polkadot is the flagship protocol of the Web3 Foundation. Polkadot is a sharded multichain network, meaning it can process many transactions on several chains at the same time improving scalability. Polkadot allows any type of data to be sent between any type of blockchain, this unlocks a wide range of real-world use cases.
Polkadot was co-founded in 2016 by Ethereum and Web3 Foundation co-founder Gavin Wood, Robert Habermeier, and Peter Czaban. Gavin also invented Solidity, the language used by developers to write decentralized applications (dapps) on Ethereum.
Gavin Woods said of Polkadot, “Polkadot empowers the individual against much more powerful corporate and state actors.”
