You might see Polkadot hitting 143k TPS or having the highest bandwidth among all modular chains and think: "Cool numbers, but probably just aggregate fluff. Doesnāt mean a single app can actually tap into that."

Why Owning Your Data Might Be the Biggest Shift of This Decade
Tue, 15 Apr 2025 12:14:29āāMost of us have accepted that using the internet means sacrificing privacy, but that shouldnāt be the norm. Think about it: when you log into an app, they get your name, email, location, contacts, and even the way you scroll. And itās all packaged up and sold behind the scenes. The Terms of Service are a smokescreen. Weāre giving away billions in data value without getting a penny or a say. ā ā This is where Frequency stands out. Itās not just another blockchain, itās building real tools on Polkadot ecosystem that let you own your data and your online identity. With decentralized identity (DID) tech, Frequency is changing the game, you choose how your identity works across platforms, and you control whatās visible and whatās not. Itās not just theory either. The tech is already being put to use. ā ā One real-world example is MeWe, a social platform thatās now built on Frequency. While big social networks run on ad dollars and data sales, MeWe and Frequency are trying to show that social media can be private, user-owned, and still work well. You keep your profile, your posts, your settings, even if you move to another app that also supports Frequency. Thatās a big deal. Itās like carrying your account with you, but without giving up your personal info every time. ā ā For once, it feels like thereās a real path toward a better internet. Not a perfect one, but one where you at least have a say. These kinds of platforms deserve more eyes on them. What are some other tools or projects youāve come across that give users real control? Letās share whatās working. submitted by /u/carebear2202lb [link] [comments]

Runtime release notification for Ecosystem builders
Tue, 15 Apr 2025 10:53:29Hello, This is to advise you that the Polkadot community is currently preparing to upgrade the systems to the v1.4.3 and v1.5.0 releases. šØ Breaking change: šØ These releases will contain a change that adds an additional parameter to the dry-run functionality. As a result, both Runtime code and Frontend clients which are currently accessing the runtime API will default to using the latest version. We recommend that all ecosystem builders that are calling the DryRunApi upgrade their code to handle the new function. We will advise you when the v1.4.3 and v1.5.0 upgrades are up for vote as OpenGov referenda in the upcoming days. Many thanks. submitted by /u/Gr33nHatt3R [link] [comments]
