7-Day Polkadot Update

Polkadot is coming off a string of developments following an announcement from Web3 development platform Moralis saying it added support for Moonbeam Network. Moonbeam is one of Polkadot’s highly successful parachains and is the go-to destination for multi-chain apps on Polkadot across its Application Programming Interface (API).

Polkadot parachains are specialized blockchains that allow the Polkadot Blockchain to communicate and operate in a secure and trust-free environment, optimizing Polkadot for better scalability. 

Acala , a foundational platform within the Polkadot ecosystem, unveiled its Sinai Upgrade, which is set to enhance the platform’s multichain capabilities.
