- Evius creates important blockchain products for many users on different platforms like Astar, NEAR, and Bitcoin.
- The team has made cool tools like the first NFT marketplace and a platform to help artists create tokens.
- They noticed Polkadot doesn’t have a feature called meta-transactions, which lets users send transactions without paying fees directly.
- This is a problem because new users find it hard to get tokens for fees and the system can be complicated.
- They want to make it easier for users, improve security, and help Polkadot grow by creating a new template for these transactions. 
- This template will help people use apps without needing special tokens and will be safe from attacks.
- The goal is to make things better for everyone using Polkadot and its smart contracts.

Hello everyone,
On &bdquo;X&ldquo; I am &bdquo;bearofthenet&ldquo;.
Im a hobby racer from Austria and would love to represent polkadot on the european racetracks.
In this motorsport you see sponsoring everywhere but i never saw any rider wearing some crypto stuff. Just want to say im not a professional attending international races, we are just a group of petrolheads living our dream🔥
I usually attend about 5 race weekends per year, the most tracks are spread over Austria, Hungary, Slovakia and Croatia, eventually italy.
About 200 riders attend per wekend, so minimum 1000 riders will see this exclusive suit per year and ill be wearing that suit minimum for 4 Years.
ill post trackpics and reels tagging Polkadot after every event on X and other social plattforms.
The requested amount will be just enough to cover most costs of this tailormade suit.
Hope you find the idea of combining the passion for motorsport and web3 as exciting as i do.
Bear

- KSM trading started on Hydration after a vote approved funds from the Treasury.
- This allows money to move between Kusama and Polkadot.
- When sending KSM or DOT, if a user lacks enough funds, part of what they're sending is used for fees.
- This makes it easier for users since they don't need extra money for fees.
- However, users can lose more money than expected due to high fees.
- A new proposal aims to provide liquidity by supplying DOT and KSM to help with these transactions.
- Extra tokens returned to their treasuries after use.

[Small Tipper] Referendum #1473

It&rsquo;s Goku.
This is my third solo creator tip request for my contribution and impact over the last ~5 months (140 days). The latest one was on October 11, 2024 (for 15K USDT).
Aside from memeposting, my content has typically involved extensive cross-ecosystem research, narrative-building, and positioning Polkadot and telling its story in the most intellectually honest way possible&mdash;often by touching on other ecosystem solutions and how they relate to Polkadot.
For tone, I generally target an audience outside of Polkadot, making the content digestible, engaging, and debunking the noise. I avoid preaching or a didactic style, instead mixing insights with a bit of entertainment to push Polkadot&rsquo;s real value proposition and its contrarian bet.
Over the past 140 days, my content on X has reached over 1.1M views and gained over 900 new followers&mdash;organically, steady, and quality over quantity way.
These posts have been leveraged by KOLs, Polkadot ecosystem projects, the community, and other content creators, creating further conversations and engagement.
Now, with Kaito&rsquo;s mindshare, smart follower, and yap points metrics, we have additional ways to assess impact on X. No metric tells the full story, but it provides some signal nevertheless. The current leaderboard still has farmers, but once adjusted, it will reflect a more accurate measure of influence in the X space. Even in its current form, if you check the 6-month or 12-month range, you&rsquo;ll find me around the top 15 zone. While that&rsquo;s not extremely high, I have one of the highest yap points among active Polkadot agents on X, which serves as a soft indicator of attention-grabbing on broader topics with crypto X inner circles&mdash;which is exactly where I focus.

- A proposal is asking for extra money, 21,504.94 DOT, to help collators on Polkadot's System Parachains.
- Collators help keep the network safe, fair, and working well.
- Previous funding has helped collators, but more money is needed because the network is growing.
- The proposal will improve how collators operate and support them better.
- More information about this can be found in earlier proposals and on a specific bounty page.
- This effort started around mid-2023 and aims to keep the Polkadot network stable and secure.
