DOT trades above $4.50 as chart structure mirrors 2020 breakout; targets range from $12 to $50.
JAM upgrade introduces modular, gasless design with 38+ teams building and scalability improvements.
Polkadot gains traction with $300M TVL, stablecoin adoption, and growing institutional integration.
Polkadot (DOT) appears to be entering a phase of renewed momentum, with analysts pointing to a potential rally similar to 2020. The asset recently broke out of a multi-month range, trading above $4.50 as of July 23, 2025. Analysts and traders are watching key levels between $12 and $50.
JAM Upgrade Reshapes Polkadot’s Core Architecture
Polkadot has started its transition to the Join-Accumulate Machine (JAM) upgrade. This move replaces the older Relay Chain model with a modular and gasless design. JAM introduces parallel mini-blockchains, removes the need for parachain auctions, and allows native services to operate directly on the network.

According to an observation by FriedrichBTC, more than 38 teams are actively developing on JAM, supported by millions of dollars in incentives. This change is expected to boost scalability and network performance. Polkadot aims to become one of the most advanced Layer 1 networks by the end of 2025, following this upgrade.
The JAM model supports rapid execution, greater decentralization, and lower congestion. These features are expected to attract more developers and users, especially as traditional blockchains face gas fee limitations.
Growth in DeFi, Stablecoins, and Institutional Participation
Polkadot’s DeFi ecosystem has grown, with over $300 million in total value locked. According to an analysis prepared by CryptoVipSignal, the network is offering yields of 18.63% for ETH and 18.98% for BTC. A new vDOT/ETH pool will go live on July 24, which could bring more liquidity and demand.
The passing of a U.S. stablecoin law under the Trump administration has also supported activity on Polkadot. Platforms like Bastion and Ripio have shifted to Polkadot’s multichain rails, while USDT is now live. This stablecoin movement is tapping into markets that process more daily value than major card networks.
Institutional interest is also growing. DOT is part of pending ETF applications, and Polkadot is now integrated with Uniswap V4 and Arbitrum. Appearances in FIFA Rivals and on Lionel Messi’s jersey are also bringing it more attention from the broader public.
